Can you give us a point where this woman destroys him? I would like to see it, but I'm not sitting through 10 minutes of repuke talking points.

asking him why he (and the rest of the group there) thinks "CNN sucks" is a positive thing .

She does a masterful job using just polite questions. Bravo!

I'm originally from TX, and didn't realize that Pete Olson is such a terrible speaker. Good grief...

Why? Because the way they have won so many elections is to groom a voting base that responds only to certain dog whistles so rather than take the hard way and try to come up with ideas that might actually help the people that elect them they rely on those dog whistles.
Now their party is out of ideas so all they have is "Lock her up", "its all the illegals fault" and "More gunz!!!".

(I wish my (R) congressperson would meet her constituents. Unless you are a crab or salmon fishermen, you won't ever see her.)

Good for you, brave Texan, for asking questions!
