'Phenomenal idea!' Jen Psaki giddy as Trump may send 'nightmare' Cabinet on campaign trail

President Donald Trump is reportedly mulling an unconventional new strategy to try to turn around his flagging polls ahead of the midterm elections — and former Joe Biden press secretary turned MS NOW commentator Jen Psaki urged him to go for it.

"I just want to start with something that happened actually last night, because last night, Trump's top political advisers met for a private meeting," said Psaki. "This included his former campaign manager, his pollster, his chief of staff. They all huddled together at the private members-only Capitol Hill Club in D.C. to discuss what they think should be Trump's midterm strategy. And according to the Wall Street Journal's Josh Dawsey, a big part of that crack team's plan is to encourage Trump's Cabinet secretaries to visit competitive districts."

"I for one, I think that's a freaking phenomenal idea," said Psaki. "I fully endorse it, given that these are the kind of people that they are talking about here."

She played a clip of Vice President JD Vance being asked whether he would like to be president.

"Would I?" he said, laughing stiffly. "Well, look, I think, again, I'm going to try to do as good of a job as I can right now."

"I mean, that laugh is so awkward, it's like the stuff of nightmares," said Psaki. "But that was, of course, Trump's number one surrogate, his vice president. He may be some sort of Manchurian candidate, I don't know, but at a minimum, the guy is not exactly oozing charm, really, ever. I mean, just a few weeks ago, he was booed at the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Milan. And that is actually part of a long history of Vance getting booed by crowds, really, all over the place. Definitely send that guy to competitive districts. That's a bang-up strategy you came up with there."

If Vance is "too busy," Psaki continued, Trump should try some of his other bizarre Cabinet members — like Secretary of Health and Human Services RFK Jr.

"Here he is. This is a real video, I kid you not," said Psaki, playing another clip. "In an official HHS video he just put out with right-wing musician Kid Rock, too, I guess. And this is really a reach here, and I'm not here to get in the heads of their strategy, I guess, to encourage the country to work out and eat healthy, I guess. And they thought — RFK Jr. specifically thought it would be a good idea to film himself and Kid Rock doing some sort of strenuous exercises inside a sauna shirtless, because we all need to see that, getting into a cold plunge with jeans on, as one does, jumping into a pool with jeans on, I don't even know."

"And here's my favorite: drinking whole milk in a hot tub because — and cheering, cheering the whole milk," said Psaki. "Nothing says 'I'm just a normal and relatable guy' like drinking whole milk while relaxing in a hot tub with Kid Rock, right?"
