Trump rightfully owns "shill baby shill". Sarah Palin had shamelessly pitched the drill baby thing years earlier.

Walz was right about this group being just weird.

(26,186 posts)9. She speaks at the level of a Trump voter
Trump voters are sad stupid people that are easily fooled, conned, and filled with racism, bigotry, and hate.
She only ever is speaking to that audience. They know normal people are them as fakes. She's lucky that her boss is at the level of his voters . . .

But I dont know if she made it up. Regardless, it is a stupid brag.
