Has Adam Schiff never heard of the selfie stick?
Can someone explain to me why Adam Schiff insists on filming videos of himself in extreme close-up?
Are his arms only eight inches long?
Has he never heard of the selfie stick?
It startles me whenever his videos appear on my Twitter feed. Sixty percent of the image that accompanies the "PLAY" button is occupied by Adam's jowls. Good heavens. Has he been collecting nuts for winter?
And I don't know about you, but I'm not particularly interested in being close enough to count Adam Schiff's nose hairs.
Who thought this was a good idea?
This is a strategy so stupid that it could only have come from a political consultant.
I don't know if you remember this, but in 2018, shortly after she was sworn into office, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was invited by Nancy Pelosi to host a tutorial for her fellow Democrat lawmakers on how to make the most of social media. At that time, Ocasio-Cortez was the Darling of Twitter and Instagram. Her followers treated her like a celebrity and hung on her every word and selfie video. Since the Democrats in Congress are all failed theater kids starved for attention, they jumped at the chance to learn from the master.
It didn't take long before every showboating theater kid in Congress was copying AOC, no doubt on the advice of a gormless political consultant.
But here's the thing. Adam Schiff is not Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. For one thing, he's about as "photogenic" as a lumpy potato. Nobody, even those with a strong stomach, wants to watch a 2-minute video of Adam Schiff's nostrils.
If Adam insists on filming himself, can't he enlist an aide to hold the damn iPhone?
Why isn't he content with being a guest on cable news and the Sunday network news shows? He is one of the most over-exposed politicians in Washington, and has been since 2017.
The Washington Free Beacon used to track Adam Schiff's airtime on news shows. I used to call him the Congressman from the State of TV News. According to the Free Beacon, by July 2019, Schiff had appeared on television 419 times since January 2017, for a total of 49 hours, 39 minutes, and 42 seconds.
Tell me. Does that sound like someone who needs to film himself?
