Conversations with Mr S.

Last night I turn to Mr S. and ask him if Kamala went full Dan Quayle.

He just sort of looks at me.

Me - Hawaii is in the Pacific.  It's an island that is right here.

He busts up laughing. I had completely forgotten about that he said. I'm like really? We'd get high and and repeat it over and over. It was a meme back in the day.

This is what Quayle said: "Hawaii has always been a very pivotal role in the Pacific. It is in the Pacific. It is a part of the United States that is an island that is right here."

This is what Kamala said: “So, Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine."

Oddly...late last year the media was comparing Kamala to Dan Quayle. (Even our own Mercury News interestingly.) So I guess she has grown into her role. But no one has really connected the two statements.
