    You know what? You know what?

    I’m willing to give him credit here. This is exactly how I’d respond. Except, I don’t like beer. I vastly prefer weed. Anyone wanna smoke?

      Are you inserting yourself into positions where people would ask you that though?

      Do you have a team of people working around the clock to feed you answers and tutor you on what to say?

      Granted, most likely, you don’t have media training. He does, or ar least should have media training and be able to give a cogent answer in front of a camera.

        I’m not trying to insinuate anything about vance or insult him or anyone else.

        That said, that donut shop interaction genuinely felt to me like a reality TV show that attempted to help a neurodivergent person socialize. Like they gave him pointers on smalltalk like asking simple questions about people. He locked in on “how long have you worked here” and interrogated every employee with that single question followed by “OK good.”

        I know he can talk, it’s just incredible how bad his interpersonal skills are.

          Oh I definitely am. He’s a grown adult and a politician, he absolutely should have the media training to answer a simple question like “Why would a Wisconsinite have a beer with you?”

          The easy homerun answer is “Oh there’s a lot of great breweries here in the state! A lot of great choices while having some squeaky cheese curds.” Seriously in 1 sentences I just called out 2 major industries within the state that they’re well known for across the nation, beer brewing and the dairy/cheesemaking industry. Like it’s so braindead easy to do.

        I would still respond like this if I ever became famous. My personality is my own. Don’t like it? Don’t put me on camera.

      Way ahead of you. (But I do have a legitimate medical reason and I barely feel a high at this point.)
