I would bet our VP is a good cook. I've been going back and forth about spending $250-$350 for a quality 8qt dutch oven. Good quality tools are not cheap, be they tools for the shop or the kitchen.

My wife thought I was insane to pay $69 for a pressure cooker with the actual thermometer in the lid. We use it all the time and worth every cent!

The cookware I have gotten will outlast me. I got most of my expensive stuff using credit card points, but it's worth paying for.

Most things are like that though. 3-4 cheap replacements over the years add up to a lot more than it would have been to just buy the good one in the first place.

pre election.

I believe she was cooking some Indian food. (Oh, yum)

Between that, and some down home cooking - yippie!
Loooove both.
Sure she cooks other cuisines as well. 👍

Rural poor & low educated are core R support. So this is to make those hurt by the corporate greed the R party facilitates still angry at us for having someone nice to hear about.

Whatever propaganda moves the Russians were playing couldn't have the same effect as since 2000.

Murdoch didn't have FOX News until 1996 and he was no fan of the Russians at that time. Putin didn't become PM until 1999 and it took a while for what we now call the trolls to get up and running. Post 2002 definitely.

There was clear intel of a Russian program during the W regime. CIA and NSA were both very concerned. But the public focus was pointed at Afghanistan and Iraq. The Neo-Cons were too interested in exploiting Iraqi Oil and building a "new" middle east political balance and wrongly assumed the Russian empire was in decline.

The Russians definitely had knives out for Obama. They saw the way the GOP was getting radicalized by the Tea Party faction and sought to amplify it.

Probably spent more on her "I don't care, do you?" jacket. You can spend money to insult people but not to maintain your sustenance because they all have brain worms.

A friend wants to buy an American made 16 qt. pot for her big batch of soup. She said she can't find one much cheaper than that.

Appeal to poor racist whites who can't afford a pot that expensive. Makes people crazy with anger.
