25 XII 2022: What kind of sandwich to eat during insurrection?

Kayleigh McEnany’s testimony to the Jan 6th Committee is consistent with what we have earlier seen of her. She reported learning of the attack on the Capitol while she was eating lunch (a turkey sandwich, she reported) in her office. Her response to this news did not seem as prompt and energetic as one might expect, so Rep. Cheney asked her: “And you were just eating a turkey sandwich and just didn’t – didn’t register?” To this Ms McEnany replied: “I definitely reject the characterization that I was just eating a turkey sandwich and would ignore a text about Capitol Hill office buildings being stormed.” She continued: “I in no way, shape, or form would eat a turkey sandwich if I thought Capitol Hill was being seiged.”

If she would not eat a turkey sandwich if she thought Capitol Hill was under attack, I wonder what kind of sandwich she would have been eating if she did think Capitol Hill was being “seiged.”
