hear myself, sometimes I play back my periscopes just to see if I can learn anything to improve them. And when I'm playing back my own periscopes, I see the density in them that I didn't know I had when I started. So what I was doing, I wasn't aware of it, but when I watch it I can watch it like a spectator and I'll think, wow that's pretty dense. But also I realized that I'm using, massively and…

So that's why Harris did. She's planning to introduce a bill that declares Juneteenth a national holiday. Now your first question should be why her? Well, did nobody else think of that? If President Trump had suggested this first to make Juneteenth the national holiday, I don't know if there's any resistance from Republicans. I haven't heard of any. I don't know if there would be. But I would consider this under the condition the Republicans would generally support this. And I don't know if that's the case yet. I haven't seen any opinions. But I would say that in this case, if that's true, and if let's say Harris introduces it, let's say it gets passed, especially because the mood of the country, maybe it just sails through, I would say that would be an error on the president's part. It would be an error because he didn't do it. I mean if this thing is gonna get passed, the president should have done it. That was just free money. But if it doesn't get passed, then I would know why he didn't do it, right?
So we'll wait to see if it gets passed. But the fact that she saw the free money and picked it up tells me that maybe Democrats sort of got out of the way and said all right, we're gonna help the future ticket. So the rest of us will just back up, let Harris go forward, get the attention, free money.
So whoever is advising Harris, you are nailing it, my friends. You are nailing it.
You know how much I've mocked her for her laugh, her subconscious laugh or self-conscious laugh. There's a video in which, forget who was interviewing her, and the question they asked is how could she be potentially, how could she support Biden or even be in consideration as a VP choice when she was so savage to him at the debates? Now that's gonna be the big question, right? Everybody's gonna ask Kamala Harris about her prosecution background and they're gonna ask her about throwing Biden under the bus as being a racist. Obviously he's not. And that'll be the question.
So she prepared for the question and I believe she has now the highest level advisors who would have given her the right answer. And so the question is asked and she just starts laughing because it's so ridiculous. But she's laughing at her own answer. And she goes, it was a debate. And then she laughs. And then she says, a debate. And laughs the more. She goes, it was a scheduled debate. We were debating because that's what you do when you debate. And then she laughed again.
But here's what's different. The laughs didn't look like the old laughs. She fixed her laugh, which I wasn't even sure could be done. I thought it maybe could be done but I think she fixed it. Because this was not a self-conscious laugh. It was a confident laugh. She was so confident, rightly so, because her answer was a home run. The correct answer is it was a debate. Follow up: and it was a debate. Wouldn't want me to add some detail to the answer? It was a debate. Can you go deeper? Yes, it was a debate. And laugh every time. You can't beat that. You could not beat that for a perfect way to handle that situation. Laug

h and call it a debate. Never go deeper. Period. End of story. I should not say period end of story. I mock that. It's too easy. It's in your brain and then it just comes out. And then when it comes out you go, ah, I wish I had done that. So watching her go from a self-conscious, nervous-looking laugh to a laugh that is so confident she won't even stop doing it in public. Like she just laughed a…
