| Republicans are screwed. Was just watching their little press thing after the hearing. The contortions they have to make are ridiculous. |
| What was trump referring to with the Somalia comment? |
| Trump is a crook, no doubt. The Dems should have stalled, however. Lots of people sick of Trump will have no problem voting for an incumbent Pence. |
Trump’s Thursday tweets ripped into Yovanovitch’s career. “Everywhere Marie Yovanovitch went turned bad. She started off in Somalia, how did that go? Then fast forward to Ukraine, where the new Ukrainian President spoke unfavorably about her in my second phone call with him. It is a U.S. President’s absolute right to appoint ambassadors,” Trump said. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/ken-starr-trumps-tweet-during-yovanovitch-testimony-was-extraordinarily-poor-judgment |
Pence is boring. People still stay home if he's on the ballot. |
Yovanovitch’s first posting as an FSO was in Mogadishu. |
Pence won't win, he isn't beholden to Russia so they aren't going to manipulate people for him. That is the way Trump one. Maybe the Rs can find someone else. |
Ha you could tell they’re totally sick of questions about the tweets. |
LMAO |

Turner comes off as such an ass here.
Blech Amee Vanderpool @girlsreallyrule Watch Yovanocich's face as she tries to answer Rep. Turner's question and he talks over her and then says, "Not on my time, you're done, right?" Just wouldn't be a full day without a little GOP mansplaining from a pompous prick. https://twitter.com/i/status/1195414878518951938 Video is on there. She is very articulate and weighs her words, so he just comes across as a jackass. |
And Devin's all like, Come on Guys, Not Again.... |
Yes I’m aware of that, I was just wondering what he was trying to imply with “how did that go?” |
Drumpf trying to say that the horn of Africa being a mess is all her fault. Is it not obvious? -NP |
He is trying to imply that Americans caused or worsened the civil discord in Somalia. A lovely position for our President to take. I'm sure our diplomats around are feeling lousy about all this. |
