“I had an elderly woman, just a short while ago, come up to me — and said that we at CNN should get the ‘F’ out of this auditorium at this high school in West Columbia. She turned to the crowd and whipped them up into a frenzy, calling on us to leave before President Trump arrives.”

And when she said fake news.... I would have asked which report she had seen that concerned her.... knowing full well she’s never watched CNN for a second.

I wonder what she did for a living. Probably and astrophysicist.

...or radio, or her preacher, or Breitbart, or any number of other foam factories.

She doesn't need to watch it to "know" they're the enemy.

It's South Carolina. They start civil wars from such certainty.
