You thought VP Harris laughing inappropriately – for example at a question about war refugees – was intolerable? The new White House Press Secretary Jean-Pierre may be worse. She laughs about the baby formula shortage. But he who laughs last…
True, inappropriate laughter may be a sign of nervousness, or inability to form a logical answer to a question. But on a deeper level, laughing at other people’s troubles betrays a lack of caring that is disgraceful in those who claim to be liberals.
Can you imagine the uproar if Trump’s vice president or press secretary had laughed at serious questions? They would be excoriated in the media as inhuman and cruel.
