She established control with the forced handshake and introducing herself. Which I don't think she planned, but she saw the opportunity and jumped all over it. I almost expected him to turn away and run off, it rattled him.

I believe that was 100% planned, she knew perfectly well going in he wouldn't meet her in the middle and instead asserted the situation. He didn't shake hands with Clinton or Biden - I thought it was a great way to show him she's different.

Yeah, she’s competent, she practiced everything she possibly could and that’s a guarantee

I mean at this point he probably has a phobia of adept legal professionals. She probably gave him the Prosecution stare and he damn near wet himself.

I didn't even think of this angle.

He's been in so many courtrooms as of late, that he can SMELL the judicial system on her and panicked.

He wasn't prepared for it. It was /her/ handshake.

How do you think they chose to have her introduce herself by name?

Saw speculation it was due to mispronunciation
