He had been asking her about her sentencing record on child-pornography cases, a topic which she repeatedly defended throughout the week.

(5,157 posts)What better example of the fact that he and the rest of them do not care about her ability nor any slights in her record, they are just playing to their base and making sure they keep that anger going. And, he is shameless in his lack of ability to even try to appear respectable. It is disgusting.

There should be a bipartisan panel to monitor outrageous performance rants. Maybe limit their "personal opinion" time and have a buzzer go off after 5 minutes and announce it as such.
