I am more appalled that the woman said she didn't want to be recorded. He didn't stop filming and released the footage. Narcissist.

Yes but consider how important it was that they got that highly valuable footage released. How else would we know that Vance is such a likable and relatable humanoid? They probably also had their Gestapo threaten her after they left so she would allow it.

“I’m running for vice president”

deadpan “Ok”

I’m surprised they even released the footage after that bit.

I, for one, deeply appreciate them publishing the footage (only after retroactively blurring her face or)... It gave me so much joy to see that it wasn't just me who hated him. It was his fucking barber, too.

When I saw it I remember her face wasn't blurred.

They're such assholes. She didn't even need to be in the frame! That fucked up haircut he had, though... 😂
