[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't realize what had happened when I was watching, which only reinforces what a good save it was. But any respect I might have had for her performance was completely negated by her failure to shake hands with VP Harris. She did shake hands with Biden, Trump, and Vance. Gratuitously disrespectful behavior.[/quote]

Oh, stop. Kamala (who I voted for) was clapping and didn't offer her hand. Underwood (who I'm not a fan of) dealt with a 1-minute awkward silence, and then landed a fairly challenging song a capella before turning around and shaking hands with Biden, then Trump and Vance.

Zero disrespect shown, so I'm not sure why PP had to show some. Clown behavior.[/quote]

DP. In the video, both Biden and Harris are clapping when Carrie Underwood turns. She doesn't acknowledge Harris at all. She turns to Biden only, who is clapping and then stops to shake hands.

You are making a problem where there isn't one. She turned away from Harris, who was basically behind her. It would've been diva-like behavior to make some kind of a meet-and-greet out of it. She shook Biden's hand because he made eye-contact and offered it and Harris kept clapping the entire time and didn't make it about herself.

You are making an issue out of a nothingburger. There's no drama here but the drama you're trying to make.[/quote]

This is correct. When she finished singing and turned toward Trump, Biden made eye contact, told her good job, and they shook hands. Had he not done that, she would have gone straight to shake Trump’s hand.

I think Biden was also trying to catch her eye during the awkward silence to give her some encouragement.[/quote]
