Trump fave Lou Dobbs says Mike Lee had a "snit fit" and did a "Benedict Arnold impression"

https://www.mediaite.com/tv/lou-dobbs-trashes-gop-sen-mike-lee-for-breaking-ranks-on-iran-he-broke-out-a-benedict-arnold-impression/


“Senator Mike Lee having something of a snit fit today,” Dobbs said — introducing a segment on the senator. “He came out in support of [Sen.] Tim Kaine’s … [resolution] to limit Trump’s military authority.”

In his news conference, Lee fumed about getting none of his questions answered during the classified briefing about whether the Iran threat was truly imminent.

“I still haven’t had the questions answered that I came into that briefing expecting to ask,” he said. “They left after 75 minutes. I understand these are busy people, they’ve got a lot of demands on their time. They are appearing before a coordinate branch of government… responsible for their funding, for their confirmation, for any approval of any military action they might undertake. They had to leave after 75 minutes while they were in the process of telling us that we need to be good little boys and girls and run along and not debate this in public. I find that absolutely insane.”

Dobbs had absolutely no patience for Lee’s comments.

“[A] Benedict Arnold impression,” the Fox Business host called it.
