Wanted to share this since we got a good laugh.
She got the phone and figured out it was a political call. Again. About the tenth one this month. See, my wife is from Michigan and she still has a Michigan phone number, and the DNC has been pestering her for weeks.
She figured out who it was, then told she wasn't allowed to talk to people without her husband's permission, just to put them on the back foot. She handed the phone to me.
I greeted them and asked who it was. She said her name was the same as my wife's name. My wife's name is fairly old fashioned so I'm pretty sure it was just a bit to try and build rapport.
She asked if I was planning on voting for Kamel and I said I was undecided, trying my absolute damnedest to sound apathetic and disconnected, the kind of people they're desperately trying to dredge up. She asked why, and if she could help elaborate on some issues for me.
I said "Tell me, is it true that Tim Walz ordered the entire state of Minnesota to put tampons in the boy's bathrooms at elementary schools? Because I'm a father of four and that just seems like pedophilia to me."
*BEEP
instantly hung up.
Yep. Just try to max out the time as long as possible. Ask about who they're endorsing in local races and why. Then also make sure to say you're considering her but need to know more. That will put you on a call back list so you can waste even more of their time.
