God, I am already so tired of correcting false stories about Trump. He does plenty of stupid shit as it is, why do we have to invent things? It completely destroys our credibility.
(Also, Jesus Christ, take two seconds and google it.)

"what is the source of heat when the oven is off."
In my (gas, newish) oven, there is a switch to turn the warming drawer on. Presumably the engineers in charge of oven design have connected this switch to some sort of heating element. Is this not, generally, how ovens work?
Like I said, I think he's Feral Boy.
have I posted here about how warming up the plate before putting waffles on it is a gamechanger? I just use hot water on the plate.
We do that for dinner pretty much every night in the winter, because even though the thermostat says 68, that's a dirty lie in the kitchen.

Oh, so jealous, Amy! Those are the best.
This is my oven. No drawers: [link]
Jesse, I would like to tag
I do somehow feel that the inability of people to accept that there are many different kinds of oven drawers in the world is a metaphor for what is wrong with America, though.

Oh, crap, I ordered something to pick up at Target and I forgot to do that on the way in. Needing to do work is really getting in the way of my getting stuff I want to do done.

Ooh!
Warming drawers can also revive hypothermic lambs: [link]
My is an Eaton's store brand oven. They closed in the late 90s, so it's around 20 years old. Works fine, though, so I can't justify replacing it. When it goes...I am so getting a two oven stove.

I was going to say, that is a good one, but not mine!

Oops! Thanks Jess, and sorry!

Maybe Feral Boy is remembering an oven like my Grandmother's 30s era one - huge oven, broiler underneath which doubled as a warming oven, that you never had to turn on because the pilot light was always on and provided the warmth.
Mind you, when the wind was from the right direction it could blow out the pilot light and eventually blow up the house if you weren't careful. I'll settle for an electric starter for my gas oven.
