MSNBC reporter forces misogynist Trump surrogate to fess up about his Clinton sex life slur

[DonViejo]

In a sharp segment on MSNBC Monday, reporter Katy Tur refused to let Trump supporter John Sununu blame her for focusing on “distractions,” reminding the former N.H. governor that he’s the one who made inappropriate comments about Bill and Hillary Clinton’s sex life.

At a N.H. rally Friday, Sununu joked about the Bill Clinton’s sexual affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky, asking the audience if they “think Bill was referring to Hillary when he said, ‘I did not have sex with that woman?’”

Towards the end of her interview with the former N.H governor, Tur noted the “many low moments” of the 2016 presidential campaign before asking Sununu about his comments. As the conversation became more combative, Tur rebuffed his attempts to blame her for focusing on distractions:

Sununu: I’m not even gonna go there.

Tur: Do you regret getting into that on the stump for Trump?

Sununu: I do regret that I did not focus on this culture of corruption issue.

Tur: This whole campaign’s been marked by distractions, it seems—

Sununu: It shouldn’t be, why do you ask questions on distractions?

Tur: You said it, sir.

Sununu: Why don’t you ask me why I believe there’s a culture on corruption?

Tur: Why don’t you focus on a culture of corruption instead of coming out suggesting something untoward about the marriage of the opponents?

1. That young lady is a real keeper for some network. Tough as hell!

[prarie deem]

2. As I watch her reporting

I find her very professional. But does anyone else see it oozing out of her pores that she absolutely despises Trump? She never says anything and is, I think, pretty much balanced in her reporting. But her expressions and body language scream to me that Orange Hitler makes her skin craw.

4. Almost every woman has that sort of reaction to Trump because he's a creep.

5. Well, she's been following him around for a year and a half...

Hell, I already hate him, and I didn't have to take as much as she did.

She's a trooper for sticking it out. She's a tough one, to be sure. She has a future in journalism.

3. I'm With Tur!

Assigned to Trump's campaign made her life a living hell.

Glad to see her getting camera time. She is a fine reporter.
Maybe they can retire Andrea Mitchell now that Tur has stepped in.

6. She's done an exceptional job

I keep looking for some evidence of her anger towards Trump, but her reporting never belies the fact that Trump is bullying her. A thorough professional. I've heard GOPers say that she only got the job because of Keith Olbermann, but what I see is a very qualified, brave young lady.

I have no doubt she is going to write a book about her experiences with Trump and Co, and make a killing!

8. Whoa, Katy.

Way to go.

11. Katy has come out as a real force in this election. Never count out the women!
