The responses on this thread suggest that sycophantic Trump lemmings, like Pompeo, are ill equipped to substantively address inconvenient factual points and try to hide behind name calling and deflection to conpensate for their lack of intellect.

I’m not going to chuck any names out there, but I’m sure you can sea who I mean...

So much anger with some of these folks. They get angry because they have no answer. Like Trump. Just spew it out there.

True...Pompeo was swearing at her like a drunken sailor for a long amount of time... longer than the interview. He is an unstable diplomat...an embarrassment and no Henry Kissinger!

Ok this is off topic, sorry. But when I was really young I worked at a dry cleaners where Nancy would drop off Henry's suits. I had to go through the pockets. I can't tell you how many hand written notes there were from Nixon to Kissinger. I kept them for years because I found it fascinating. Damn, I should have kept them lol

But her emails!

(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

"Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says an NPR host lied in setting up an interview with him on Friday, but email records support the journalist’s account of how the contentious exchange came to be."

I'll go y'all one better. Show us in the Constitution where it says to give Americans money to Ukraine?
Treat the cause and don't react to a symptom.

I know, I know? What's the Constitution have to do with it?

I'd say Listener2307 has a valid point here. The Liberal retort would be "well, she's just a Congressperson, and Pompeo's a federal government cabinet member...Secretary of State"

Well, Hillary Clinton was also Secretary of State, and her foul-mouthed tirades were legendary, and well documented. Here's a few story's about them:

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...g-hillary-book

in case Liberals don't like the source above, here's the same story from another source:

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-a8319566.html

and another incidence of cursing, this time on a show taped for national television:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/hillary-c...015938771.html

Here's a story where Hillary goes on a drunken tirade of cursing and throwing stuff:

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-a8319566.html

So, in fact, we have Secretary of State's from both party's going on curse-laden tirades. Pompeo's just happened to be more recent.
