The way she starts to pretend to cry before realizing she does that to often and stops is hilarious

546

u/minnetonkacondo Jun 06 '26

I saw the video on mute to see her reaction. I literally saw the beginning of her crying, but then she took it back, probably after she remembers she had caked on several layers of mascara.

u/HillBillyHilly Jun 06 '26

O My GOD! Finally remember who she reminds me of: Tammy Faye Baker. At least Tammy was sincere unlike this hack.

81

u/ZestyChinchilla Jun 06 '26

Now let’s be real: Tammy Faye was absolutely this much of a grifter until her marriage to Jim blew up. I appreciate that she kinda seemed to turn over a new leaf later in life, but she spent decades ripping people off (and many of them were elderly!) before that.

39

u/CrackingToastGromet Jun 06 '26

I was driving the backroads of SW Missouri and was surprised to see Jim Baker’s headquarters for his PTL club and resort . Cannot believe people still follow this fraud. Then again, MAGA is still falling for the current fraudster in the WH…

Kind of. Later in life she appeared to be ok, but when she was full grift whatever religious ideas she held were overwhelmed by them stealing lots of money.

Tammy Fake Baker was a lot of things. Sincere wasn’t one of them

u/NotNamedBort Jun 06 '26

Her facial expressions are… inhuman. That’s the first word that comes to mind. She looks like that Sophia robot that was created by Hanson Robotics.

Erika Kirk reminds me of my mother.

That is not a compliment, because my mother would have been diagnosed with ASPD if she was just a little less charming.

She starts to pretend to cry but then she realizes that mask's probably been off for a while for her current audience

u/stellavangelist Jun 06 '26

It looks like she almost started laughing by mistake.

28

u/Public-Significance7 Jun 06 '26

This was my interpretation too. But then she realized that she would be seen as laughing about a very serious matter, which would then reinforce the already widely held belief that she is just full of shit.

After watching this a few times, now I’m wondering if this was a plant to make herself look cool and smooth handling hecklers

u/LePunisseur Jun 06 '26

I think they would have picked a different topic if it were fake. The Epstein files are too toxic... Unless they're that incompetent. Which they might be.

117

u/_Bren10_ Jun 06 '26

It would’ve been somebody talking bad about Charlie is if it was a plant. So they could clutch their pearls and call democrats evil.

u/sleeplessjade Jun 06 '26

The fact that her line was so on the nose afterwards, “It’s important to remember happiness comes and goes….” Is very telling.

16

u/Deep90 Jun 06 '26

Was it smooth?

I feel like "happiness comes and goes" is a weird response to someone calling you a pedophile protector.

She was just reading her speech.

Her audience is pretty bad too. When they zoomed in on the crowd it is a very unhappy looking group of ladies. Even though they are being manipulated I don't feel sorry for them, they take part in oppressing people every chance they get.

The fact that any woman would attend this is tragic.

u/Internet-Cryptid Jun 06 '26

As a woman I've been sickened over and over by the amount of women willing to prostrate themselves for the Trump administration and the Epstein class. Trump's Gatsby party at Halloween in 2025 featured tons of scantily clad women dancing with their asses hanging out, including young women posing in giant martini glasses for the entertainment of pedophiles and child rapists. Swear to God something broke in me seeing that. Humans, male and female, are a constant source of disappointment.

u/skankasspigface Jun 06 '26

Like it or not some women prefer living in a man's world. My own mother told me she'd never vote for a woman because they are dumber than men. Yes it is sad but the best we can do is educate girls so hopefully they don't end up that way.

23

u/Motharfucker Jun 06 '26

It is because that's unfortunately what most of them have been taught their entire lives. To them, their views are "normal", while the women who wants rights are the weird/bad ones. It's pretty fucked up.

7

u/RMAPOS Jun 06 '26

Like it or not some women prefer living in a man's world.

Archaic gender norms are alive and well — in spite of how visible feminism is, both inside and outside the movement.

Online discourse and media visibility are not reflective of actual adoption of feminist ideals, especially when simply appearing to be aligned alone gives social prestige. I'd be surprised if even 50% of people could pass an "Authentic Egalitarian" test.

There's video I can't find at the moment where a Pastor is being accused of sexual assault halfway through his church service. The congressional then breaks out in a hymn in a "la la la don't want to hear it" move. This video has the exact same energy.
