He doesn't want to say why, but, according to the spinners, he's not "referring to race or gender". Why doesn't he want to say why then? It is a mystery.Isaac Arnsdorf / Washington Post:
Trump suggests Harris would struggle with world leaders based on her appearance — “I don't want to say as to why,” Trump said. A campaign spokeswoman denied he was talking about her race or gender. — Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump suggested that Vice President Harris wouldn’t be able to stand up to world leaders because of her appearance, adding that he didn’t want to spell it out but viewers would know what he meant.“She’ll be like a play toy,” Trump — who has a history of using sexist attacks and stereotypes in campaigns against women — said in a Fox News interview with Laura Ingraham, a portion of which aired on Tuesday night. “They look at her and they say, ‘We can’t believe we got so lucky.’ They’re going to walk all over her.”Trump then turned to look directly at the camera and added: “And I don’t want to say as to why. But a lot of people understand it.”Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said he was not referring to race or gender and went on to criticize Harris over her record on immigration and other Biden administration policies.“She is weak, dishonest and dangerously liberal, and that’s why the American people will reject her on November 5th,” Leavitt said.
Whoa there! Who's calling whom a bag of what? |
A sort of explanation/context, from The Hill:Neil Vigdor / New York Times:
Lara Trump Compares Harris to a Fashion Designer's Faux ‘Trash Bag’Michael Luciano / Mediaite: Lara Trump Compares Kamala Harris to a Designer ‘Trash Bag’Nick Robertson / The Hill: Lara Trump compares Harris to faux trash bag with $2,000 price tagDavid Gardner / The Daily Beast: Lara Trump Likens Kamala Harris to a Designer ‘Trash Bag’
Strained analogy, if it is one at all. Almost as if Lara (Parent's couldn't afford the "u"?) had just been looking for a way to call the Veep "trash". Extra-amusing considering that the younger (by 13 yrs., so Mel probably is old enogh to be Lara's mommy) Mrs. Trump's a perfect example of what the racists call "DEI hires"; unqualified & incompetent, but fits the desired racial (&/or in-law) profile.“It’s been incredible to see the way they have tried to prop up Kamala Harris and really sell her as some sort of — this amazing political figure,” Trump said. “It reminds me of there was this bag that a very famous designer designed, this is several years ago, and it literally was a trash bag, but they sold this thing for like $2,000 thinking that people would actually buy it. It’s a similar situation with Kamala Harris.”Trump was referring to a handbag sold by Balenciaga designed to look like a trash bag as a form of head-turning high fashion.
