“I don’t believe it,” wrote David Hookstead, a reporter for OutKick, on X. “I’ll donate $100,000 to her campaign if she beats me in a shooting drill at a range of her choice with her Glock.”

Setting aside whether-or-not that would prove whether she's shot the thing, not worth it. She had something like 100 days to do the campaign, had to raise something like $1 billion. That's like $416k/hour, and that's not counting the fact that some of that has to be sleeping, eating, using the bathroom and such instead of fundraising. It'd take more than an hour to do a shooting match.

These "challenges" are so annoying. Clearly the tactic is to present "if you [do absurdly specific and unreasonable thing] then I will [change my mind about something", and when inevitably the unreasonable request is not fulfilled, it's an excuse to continue believing whatever it was you believed before. Infuriating.

And if/when they are successful at completing the unreasonable request, it's "huh, that's interesting. Must have been [nonsesne reason], and now you have to [moving of goalposts]."
