If I were Jenna, here’s my response: Mr. Pence, if you had a son or daughter in Iraq, would you want them in harm’s way because a standing President’s daughter was in their unit serving and putting all of them at risk from terrorists eager to hit the President personally? I didn’t think so - perhaps you might like to think before you ask those kind of questions or didn’t you learn question asking in journalism school?
Good point Leah! But that’s the thing with children of politicians: the “journalists” take out their hatred on them instead of their parents. But Jenna never asked to be the President’s daughter, and it’s really unfair to ask questions like that. But I have a feeling that she is a tough person - sort of like her dad ;)
You have nailed the underlying point of the stupid designed to trip her up question.
Prince Harry, who was gung ho about serving in Iraq, was prohibited from doing so for precisely the same reason: too dangerous for his comrades.
