HatTip iOTW – Here’s a brief snippet from a Jeb Bush interview. Watch at the :04 second mark for what makes Jeb! smile, perk up and say “Thanks Matt”:
…”Thanks Matt”…
You see, the really funny part – the part that makes the disconnect so well evidenced – the part where Jeb! views the bestest compliment ever – is the same part that makes 95% of the republican electorate cringe and say: no thank you.
The other funny aspect is that Matt Lauer, playing the male role of Katie Couric, isn’t complimenting Jeb Bush at all. Quite the contrary, he’s ridiculing him – but Jeb!, with his magnanimous pedigree, can’t even identify when he’s being showcased as a fool.
Revealing is an understatement.
