On Fox Business, Trump Spokeswoman Katrina Pierson Says Reporters "Literally Beat Trump Supporters I

[Archae]

Source: Media Matters

KATRINA PIERSON: It is no secret that the media definitely skews left. However, I think this cycle, many people will agree that it's above and beyond, over the top when it comes to Mr. Trump and his campaign, and I think that's Mr. Trump's way of fighting back. The last two presidential cycles, we had Republican candidates that just sat there and took a beating, and Mr. Trump isn't going to do that. And therefore, the voters want someone that's going to fight back because they are tired of seeing left-wing reporters literally beat Trump supporters into submission into supporting policies they don't agree with. It just shuts them down, and that's not what they're seeing in this campaign. So this is essentially Mr. Trump fighting back and making sure that his side of the story gets out.

Latest wild accusation from Trump's goon squad.

[sinkingfeeling]

1. Please just continue to say whatever. I think it's Trump that

wants everybody to forget 2001-2008.

P.S. Look up 'literally ' in a dictionary.

[maddiemom]

26. That would too much of an onorous on Katrina.

[SummerSnow]

2. Wonder how much she is paid to do all of this a** kissing, or maybe she just loves doing it.

[Hortensis]

13. Trump's campaign doesn't get people with other options.

This one may already have risen above her level of competence. It should be obvious that attacking the media is not a good career move for someone in her position.

[uppityperson]

3. Does she know what "literally" means? Eom

[kestrel91316]

7. Obviously not. That would require a 5th grade education.

[cstanleytech]

27. Well it's gracious of you to give her the benefit of doubt for passing

the 4th grade, I personally have doubts that she even managed to get out of kindergarten since she clearly lives in some sort of fantasy land with unicorns and chocolate trees covered in glitter.

[thucythucy]

8. I doubt it.

Just as Trump obviously doesn't know the meaning of "sarcasm."

[Mika]

15. Do the Amercans who love Trump know?

Insane language for insane voters.

[louis-t]

4. She has the worst job in the world.

And is too stupid to know it.

[spooky3]

9. It's the best job for which she is qualified, apparently.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

21. yet the cable nets keep booking her, without any repercussions

so, naturally, she's going to keep lying.

[Friend or Foe]

5. The US educational system is a disgrace!!

When people like Katrina Pierson can rise to the level of Presidential Candidate Spokeswoman without a grain of learning in grammar and syntax.

[kestrel91316]

10. She's Christian homeschooled, or cheated her way through public school, or went to

a private school that her parents paid to pass her regardless.

[William Seger]

6. "Mr. Trump fighting back" has a name: Narcissistic rage (nt)

[bluedye33139]

18. Narcissistic rage and narcissistic vulnerability

are two sides of narcissism. Because there is no stable interior structure, the narcissist must look outside of himself or herself for validation, and even the smallest divergence from the narcissistic ideal self-image can result in intense distress and pain for the patient.

I don't want to sound mean, but I hope that Democratic people are capable of using this weakness in Donald Trump. I would not normally recommend going for somebody's psychological disorders, but in this case I think it's justified.

[underpants]

11. Katrina and the Knaves "I'm walking on dumbshine oh oh I walking on dumbshine

Whoa whoa
And don't it feel GREAT

All right now

[benld74]

12. Geez! Now what was the one thing that cannot be fixed?

[onecaliberal]

14. Dumb ass doesn't know the definition of literally, what a shock. NOT

[vkkv]

16. Truth leans left because there are so many corrupt, stupid, lying conservatives who

are involved in politics.

We need MORE TRUTH from the media, not less, this will result in the wingnut-right crying about the 'liberal media' even more.

So be it. I think voters of all kinds are getting really fed up with all of the lies from our leaders.

[yellowcanine]

17. People are having a field day with "Literally" Check it out.

HZ81 OzzieIsaacs • an hour ago

She literally has no clue.

fern2001 OzzieIsaacs • 4 minutes ago

She meant it sarcastically .

Linda fern2001 • 3 minutes ago

Literally.

Deecal381 OzzieIsaacs • 36 minutes ago

Lol!

[yellowcanine]

19. Unfortunately some dictionaries have caved over the incorrect use of "literally"

http://www.cnn.com/2013/08/15/living/literally-definition/index.html

But that still doesn't mean it is good speaking or writing. One would expect the spokesperson for a presidential candidate to use the language correctly.

[4lbs]

20. The media skews left? Then why is 75% of it owned and made by Conservatives?

I'd like Ms. Pierson to answer that, but she won't.

[VWolf]

22. Reporters "Literally Beat Trump Supporters"

I do not think that means what you think it means ...

[Wellstone ruled]

23. Wow!

Female Baghdad Bob! You just can't make this garbage up.

[MichiganVote]

24. "literally"-do you think she actually knows what that means??

[Spitfire of ATJ]

25. Circulate that Ash vs the Evil Dead pic again as "proof".

[Rocknrule]

28. Katrina: "Was it over when Obama bombed Pearl Harbor?"

"Obama?"
"Forget it, she's rolling"

[Shrike47]

29. Damn I was all excited to see the video of reporters hitting Trumpsters with their little notebooks!

Another disappoinment. She literally doesn't know what 'literally' means.

[Initech]

30. Trump supporters should be shut down.

[tammywammy]

31. Literally

[ThoughtCriminal]

32. Okay take off the mask, we know who she really is

[TomCADem]

33. She literally does not know...

...what the word means.

[BigDemVoter]

34. Riiiiightttt. . . .

And yeah, Obama "founded" ISIS as well, didn't he? And how did THAT work out for you, Ms. Pierson?

[sarcasmo]

35. The campaign of lies keeps on keeping on.
