Who is Betsy McCaughey

She was on CNN last night disputing the CBO numbers regarding losing health insurance.

She argued that the actual number would be 5 million instead of 24 million.
And here's the kicker...she said it with a smile.

What an evil cretin she is.

She and Marsha Blackburn are two of the biggest liars, no matter what Trump is right in their eyes.

B.McCaughey said the other night that their was nothing wrong with grab em by the pussy video.

Who attempted to run for governor and people saw that she was dumb as bricks (my excuse to bricks). She and other such liars are the reason I do not watch CNN. CNN knows these people are lying yet they give them a platform to misinform people. Watch Rachel, she refuses to have these liars on.

lending credibility to their lies, no matter how obvious they may seem.

Face it, there isn't going to be any crackdown against these fascists on the cable news outlets. The ownership is still deeming the fascist state to be profitable, so they don't care. More normalization, pretending the Nazis are "Ok" etc. Sickening.

As soon as I saw her face, I remembered her from the anti-ACA days. I picture her going around with some big binder full of scary data about the pending legislation.

Her alternative facts are significantly harder to shoot down properly in a five second response blurb.
