Someone above mentioned again that famous note reading session at Bush Senior's funeral.
Over time as my mind goes back to it, something curious about the body language on the day.
At the time if might be quickly acknowledged that HRC was the person primary in the mind of Trump supporters. So reactions?
The Bushes. Shocked - Jeb. Seething - Barbara. Resigned - George W
The Pences. Resigned - Knowingly
The Obamas. Barack - Not all that surprised. Michelle - seething.
Only sets of people who looked genuinely perplexed by the notes; The Bidens. Joe looked totally confused, even asking others around him did they get one.
And HRC. Curious. Seeming to need to read it twice and even then I'm not fully convinced she understood it.
So the messages seemed to have had instant impact on the minds of some…. knowingly. But with Biden and HRC…. the message didn't seem to have a direct personal implication.
