What a genuinely weird thing to do.

[–] Zymii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 40 points 1 month ago (4 children)

The context was that it was after two medical emergencies at the town hall I guess. It's still weird but there's a reason it was this derailed.

Still doesn't really explain it. Before he just said to stop asking questions, they had changed the format to just have a speaker ask him questions after resuming from the medical emergencies. He just gave up on it after only a few questions for no obvious reason

[–] GottaKnowYourCHKN@lemmy.world 47 points 1 month ago

The obvious reason is that he's not qualified to answer questions so he just avoided them altogether.

He's tired? He sure looks like it.

[–] TrippaSnippa@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Don't you think he looks tired?

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I sure do, looks like he went from 65 to 90 this summer.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

The reason is because his brain is mush.

[–] Zymii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago

Oh I don't disagree. Just thought it was worth mentioning

This is worse than..."Please clap," by a mile. Jeb was making a joke, but it killed his chances. This should 100% kill his chances at winning......but it won't. This race makes no sense....

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

That makes no more sense than without context. A regular person would resume the town hall after the emergencies passed, or dismissed everyone. Keeping people there and playing random somes for twenty minutes is the action of a child or an idiot.

So... why wouldn't he just continue afterwards, like what happens at any other public event that has isolated medical emergencies? Or even cancel/reschedule? Heh.
