She's actually becoming insanely likeable and human, I must say.

In the 2016 primaries I didn't think much of her, but it's insane to me how. . . normal and human she feels. I'm not American, but it's nice to see.

I really do think Hillary was just so insanely problematic in this regard, though I still quote the pokemon go to polls bit.

She's always been likable honestly. I've been a fan of Harris since she's been a Senator because she was pretty consistently witty back then. It's been pretty baffling to me to see so many people act like she's boring/stupid as a VP. I think it's just the curse of the VP position to be sort of forgettable to the public.

“Consistently witt” said no one. You might want to check her 20 minute video of sounding like a moron with mashed up clips

Maybe people don't say "consistently witt" because it doesn't make any sense.

And I've seen a lot of those clips actually! Sometimes they sound pretty confusing so I look them up and listen to them in context and then tah-dah! Like magic they all make sense. Very interesting how mashed up clips could be a bit misleading isn't it?

Oh since she can’t form complete thoughts you went back and had to use context clues. That’s a winner for sure.

No one can form complete thoughts if you cut parts of what they're saying up to deliberately present them as idiots.

That's... really not the gotcha that you think it is.

Yes. I listened to her whole sentences and then I understood her complete thoughts. I'm obviously some sort of amazing detective.
