She might be the dumbest spokesperson I have ever seen. I can't believe the networks even invite her on. Does she go on with Joy Reid! Joy would tear her apart.

I'm guessing no. That the corporate toady blow-dry news readers just sat by stupidly saying nothing, and letting the Republican spewmistress get away with yet another blatant Republican lie.
