    Yes. Keep talking about this, Republicans! This is the perfect thing to show everytime right wingers come up with some stupid slander:

    …while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty.

        Thank you for the catbox file! Seriously, she sounds fun and perfectly normal. However, to the repressed conservative, I can understand their scorn. If they can’t laugh without going to hell then no one can!

    A couple days ago I posted in response to this silly attack on Harris that I cared less about how a person laughs, and more about what a person laughs at. I suggested that Trump would never laugh at anything that didn’t involve his own good fortune or someone else’s bad luck. That he never laughs is actually worse than that.

    True dickheads make fun of how other people laugh. Laughter is a pure form of human expression, a way for people to open up and connect to each other. It is a low-hanging fruit to use when insulting someone.

      This is a dog whistle. She laughs like a woman (of color). I don’t think white men laugh in the same way, so every time you point this out, you effectively say that she’s not a white man.

    Her laugh is totally normal. I’ve heard many women laugh similarly. 🤷‍♂️

    I think Trump and his elephant harem are just not used to making women smile and laugh, so they are alarmed.
