She’s painting her story

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Symone Sanders-Townsend, former counsel to the Vice President of the United States, was talking about Kamala Harris, and said “she’s painting her story”. This is a congruent conflation of “painting a picture” and “telling (one’s) story”, both meaning to giving an elaborate or detailed description of something or someone. Kudos to Mike Kovacs for hearing this one and sending it in!
