      Ahh yes - the political strategy of taking one on the chin with voter confidence, by staring into space and becoming a viral meme, so your opponent thinks you’re slow, and lowers their guard during the debates, that the persuadable independent voters totally ignore.

      Bullet proof strategy. I’m fired up!

        Are we talking the cropped videos to give the impression Joe was lost, or actual legit video? I know at least Fox was using the cropped version of him interacting with a soldier that had just landed, and was packing their parachute, to make him look like he was lost and staring off in the opposite direction of everyone else in frame.
