Is that grace with the chilli??? 😂😂😂😂
It saddens me to write this.
I'm really trying to get used to her style and type of comedy.
But it's just not working for me.
She either needs a fresh start with a different kind of correspondent vibe she's bringing to the table, or the writers need to really step up to carry her.
But almost all of her segments I've seen so far are just not working for me at all. The jokes just don't land and her interviews feel so off.
I don't know. Some others seem to like her. Maybe she'll grow on me, too.
But I think she's missing a vibe that's hers alone.
Being awkward can work well. Troy does a wonderful job of it.
But for Grace I just don't see anything that sets her apart and makes her character work.
I love how he was like
"I don't think we should have them"
"What are they?"
Grace Kuhlenschmidt has the same birthday as me 😂
The instructions said to write "I HAVE FINISHED" … Grace instead wrote "I AM FINISHED" .. Subtract points for that. 😂😂😂
A cognitive test is controversial. The civil service exam would do the same job, and test basic knowledge and skills as well.
I don’t think white liberal women are capable of anything but double chins hair dye and not being funny.
Taking and passing a cognitive test, a civics exam, and a geography exam seems reasonable to me.
4:17 “What is a cognitive test?” 😵💫
JD Vance blames higher crime rates on 'wave of Irish immigration' in resurfaced clip
Only Term Limits will save us!
When was it young ?
No they wouldn't help much and they would figure a way to abuse it, but term limits would, even generous limits. Which forces a change of leadership regardless of how much the electorate is paying attention, or how paranoid they are about voting for a better candidate that is less familiar.
I'm not a fan of ageism. If we're doing cognitive tests everyone should have to take them
GRASSLEY IS 90-YEARS OLD.😳
More on the Gerontocracy related to this current election. https://youtu.be/QjU5CBFEfsY?feature=shared
Old people get voted in people most old people vote. Young people don't vote as much, therefore they aren't represented as much
Bold of you to assume that our politicians are going to heaven 0:17
You get a cognitive test to fill selves in a Supermarket. Why not for a president.
With one foot in heaven 😂😭
0:14 "This guy…"
The hateful leftist media as usual…Can't even put RESPECK on Yurtle The Turtle's name. SMH.
Honestly feel like the test for citizenship right before debates or something along those lines in terms of what their job actually entails would potentially work.
There are a few younger reps that need a cognitive test too. Looking at Margery Taylor Green, Gym Jordan and Lauren Bober for starters.
I'll bet the people who wrote and produced this thought it was clever.
unfunny comedian
That may have been one of the worst field pieces I’ve ever seen.
Grace, you're 9 years younger than our sweet daughter (our youngest).
Stupidity knows no age. Wake up, kids.
Yeah, I'm 67 and it's been over. Wisdom needs to be passed on before it's forgotten.
The least talented of TDS presenters but I guess they have boxes to tick
I think heavens giving them the benefit of the doubt.
No one should be able to run for any public office over the age of 50.
How about both cognitive and psychological testing!!!???? We need to protect our country!
The murderer Netanyahu refuses to stop the war in his own way and directly achieve his goal of remaining in the prime minister’s chair, thus introducing and overthrowing President Joe Biden, his intelligence director, and the American army in a 100% losing regional war and the direct beginning of a World War 3 entitled Covid Netanyahu 2024.🤔
“One foot in heaven” is a bold statement lol.
You want a cognitive test? Have them do their tax return themselves and check how many mistakes they make
I would hate to be interviewed by her.
I’m Canadian. Why is California the worst state? Genuinely curious
Youre focused on cognitive tests..Meanwhile..back in the current century…I'm wondering why ..and not just why…but how ..as in how in the world it's still the case.. Abraham Lincoln frees slaves as an attorney qualified by experience and, all of a sudden, after…. now it's illegal to practice without going to law school and taking a competency exam but to become a member of Confress you don't even have to so much as be able to answer the same questions an immigrant has to answer when applying for citizenship….
We, as citizens of the United States, need to take a hard look at the qualifications we require for candidates to higher office.
There must be more required to handle our countries deepest secrets, and make decisions that can effect everyone on earth, than be a legal citizen of 35 and win a popularity contest.
At a bare minimum, candidates shoule be required to pass the same civics test given to anyone wishing to become a citizen, and they must be able to pass the same background checks that any other person would undergo for the type of material they will have access to.
And a maximum age to take office of maybe 70.
"yeah, yeah, that's illegal too" solid close
Smarter might have no relationship to being ethical. Might even often end up having greater fraud salespersons.
I wonder why candidates are not younger. Are younger folks not interested in politics?
We need age limits. I know folks don’t like it, but we do. Yes, people age at different rates, but it’s fair to everyone.
Totally impressed by this.
