The former Trump campaign manager enraged a Fox News panelist with his insensitive remark.By Doha Madani POLITICS 06/19/2018 09:08 pm ET Updated 1 hour ago
Corey Lewandowski enraged a fellow panelist on Fox News on Tuesday when he derisively brushed off reports of a girl with Down syndrome being separated from her mother at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Lewandowski, a former campaign manager for Donald Trump, was on the show to debate with Democratic strategist Zac Petkanas about the Trump administrations controversial family separation policy. Petkanas mentioned the report of a 10-year-old Mexican girl with Down syndrome who was separated from her mother when Lewandowski interrupted by saying, Womp, womp.
Did you just say womp, womp to a 10-year-old with Down syndrome separated from her mother? Petkanas responded. How dare you. How dare you.
Lewandowski attempted to defend his jeering remark but couldnt get a word in against a livid Petkanas.

I take comfort in the fact that Karma will, no doubt, be going 'Womp Womp' on Lewandowski's ass.
