Whoever thought it was a good idea to release it should be fired, but why is no one mentioning how rude the worker was from the start?

After that, it’s just JD making small talk and salvaging an otherwise awkward encounter.

It serves as a commercial for why it’s better to just eat at home. Customer service sucks. Ten years ago people had basic conversational skills and manners.

I am a nice person, polite, but if a candidate I cannot stand came into my shop to use me for a photo op, while showing absolute indifference towards me and my store (no interest in answers or even the actual donuts), I'd have acted the exact same way: short answers, don't film me. It was the perfect way to handle it.

I’m sure you are all of those things, just as I am sure you didn’t watch the video. If you had, you’d know that before he has a chance to do anything wrong, she’s rude without provocation.

She throws off the vibe from the start and acts like she’s doesn’t want to be help him.

It’s amazing the spin people create without informing themselves. Then again, I’m not surprised.

I did watch the video, which is why I said what I said. He clearly was absolutely not interested in small talk, in giving the business publicity...He was there for his photo op. She saw him, JD Vance, a terrible person with terrible views, come in with cameras and a bunch of people. It was a very reasonable and measured reaction.

You’re showing your personal bias. Let’s not ignore she had to informed about who he was. She didn’t know.

No, she said "OK" when he introduced himself. It doesn't mean she didn't know. And he came in with news cameras...As for personal bias, it sounds like you are GOP. I think it would be equally fine to be cold to a Dem candidate showing up at your place of business when you do not want it. You should not contribute to a campaign you disagree with.

Perhaps, though her behavior and tone would make anyone feel unwelcome and uncomfortable. You don’t have to be a member of any particular party to see that.

Jesus Christ, the onus is not on HER to make this guy who wants to take away her rights comfortable. That's why you do advance work before making a video like this. Make sure you're going into a store where people actually want to see you!

She’s at work. She can’t leave without putting her job at risk. She’s got to serve donuts to these jackals, and she did. But she also made it crystal clear she didn’t want to be on film, and they kept filming. Which — again — is against the law. They showed her zero respect, and somehow SHE was the one who was rude? Nah.

You’re acting like they were asking for an endorsement. Chill, baby. Chill.

It IS an endorsement when you participate in a campaign video. Are you this dumb?

I think you are misunderstanding who works for who here.

He's a Senator running for Vice President, disrupting her place of work to run a campaign event, not even trying to make a a coherent purchase, apparently without prior coordination with store management.
Everyone crashing that room was getting paid a lot more than her and her coworkers to deal with that scenario.

He threw off the vibe.

She showed what it's like to be a disrespected worker in Trump and Vance's America, considered "essential" but not shown any respect, decent pay, or even health care.

Ohhhh, she’s the owner now? Don’t think so. Disrespectful to order donuts at a donut shop? Honey, that’s why they exist. He was perfectly pleasant the whole time. Get a grip on reality.

It is not disrespectful to order donuts. It IS disrespectful to show up unannounced for filming a campaign video, and film an employee that specifically objected to it. Might even be illegal.

Georgia is a one-party consent state for audio conversations, but an all-party consent state for film/photography.

So, yeah: disrespectful *and* illegal. I've been surprised more people haven't talked about that.

Yeah, that's 80 pages of a thread that started in 2022. It's a recent video. This thread isn't 80+ pages about that donut video, but about how strange his political and personal arc is in general.

Catch up.

He's the type of guy spends a lot of time thinking about whether a woman is menstruating and, if she isn't, whether she ought to be.

He had an aura that screams evil.

It is truly shocking to hear a candidate for Vice President to tell the sitting VP, who is also her party's candidate for President, to go to Hell.

The guy you’re responding to doesn’t understand why women get mad when he tells them they’d be pretty if they smile.

That’s who the GOP is now, the guy who tells you to smile and then gets mad when you ignore him. He thinks he’s entitled to your body.

The GOP wants no norms left at all. They want to prepare us for the brutal future they hope for, a true “keep sweet” nightmare.

JD is the epitome of this.
What a horrid litttle creature, with the beard(?) and even uglier without.

She wasn't rude at the start. She became rude when she said she didn't want to be filmed and instead of turning off the camera like a socially normal person, he just said to have them blur her out. Creepy that a middle aged man is taking involuntary videos of a young woman; that's the weirdo.

If he had just had them turn off the camera and tried to go somewhere else for his completely faked "just folksy" video she might have been more courteous to him. She was weird to the creepy man who was having a crew video her when she asked not to be. She couldn't leave because she was at her job, but I bed she wanted to just turn her back and leave him standing alone.

It looks like Peter is ready to put that money into JD's waistband. That would definitely explain their relationship since Vance had no experience with venture capitol when Thiel plucked him up and moved him to Silicon Valley to do venture capitol work. Why would Thiel do that for Vance?

+1 I wouldn’t react very politely either if some political campaign came in and kept filming me when I told them not to as I tried to work. And if the worker isn’t living under a rock, she knows exactly about JD “cat lady” Vance and Trump “pussy grabber, black jobs”. And doesn’t want to be the black window dressing in their campaign video
