By “near” I mean like a sphere of 10 Meters around them. You can’t manipulate them directly, it has to be a non-living object. You also can’t cause anyone else to die before their fated time of death.
So, how do you embarass them.
Trip them down the stairs? (zero injuries remember)
Drop their mug while they try to drink water?
C’mon, what’s the most embarassing thing you can do?
Manipulate nearby water (in glasses, but I am only interested in the water) to first be in the form of water vapor, and then turn back to liquid in the politician’s pits and nipples and eyes. Making him seem like he’s lactating during a very sombre press conference. Making him seem like he’s hyper-perspiring during speeches. Making him seem like he’s crying during budget deliberations.
I’ll make this happen repeatedly, without drawing attention to it unnecessarily. Just a politician who lactates, gushes water out of his pits, and cries.
Make it look like they’re sweating and watch as their shitty Just For Men dyejob runs…
