At approximately the 15:20 mark McEnany changes subject when asked why Trump doesn't tell his supporters to not take guns to volatile protest situations. Watch the panic in her eyes when she realizes what the question is, and how she changes the subject to police funding. It's like she doesn't dare say anything bad about the provocateurs. Interesting.

(5,106 posts)So unfair to her predecessors, especially poor Sarah Huckleberry. McEnany's MEAN, but she makes it sound like she's disappointed in the questioner when she was being reasonable and fair ( and a tiny bit hurt). She has the Barbie doll looks and the throaty voice that she can really project (without it sounding Ivanka-fake). Ohioboy's right about her reaction here, but you have to admire the super slick recovery. She completely dodged the question without leaving a big enough pause in her unrelated answer for anyone to get a word in. She's ultra organized. I think the questioner was Yamich(sp?), who I'd bet will be ready for her next time. Could be fun! Kayleigh, the Iron Barbie.

I wouldn't be surprised if that isn't the reason OAN isn't called on first. McEnany needs to save that safe port in a storm for when it is most important. These people are professional propagandists working as a team!
Something about that question got to her. You can see it. The earlier question about Trump wanting violence was too easy to dismiss, but this question was more to the point of why isn't he taking action.
