Katrina Pierson, a spokeswoman for Donald Trump, on Sunday brushed off questions about a 2012 tweet in which she suggested that President Obama and Mitt Romney were not “pure breeds.”
Perfect Obama’s dad born in Africa, Mitt Romney’s dad born in Mexico. Any pure breeds left? #CNNDebate

On Sunday, CNN’s Brian Stelter asked Pierson, “Do you regret that? Would you like to retract that?”
“No, not at all,” she responded. “Look, these tweets — I’m an activist, and I am a half-breed. I’m always getting called a half-breed. And on Twitter, when you’re fighting with liberals and even establishment, you go back at them in the same silliness they’re giving you.”
“You’re telling me that was just silliness?” Stelter asked in response.
“Absolutely,” Pierson replied.
Watch the clip. Stelter asks about the tweet at the 1:10 mark.
why is it that every time Donnie Dipstick or one of his people opens their mouth ‘Deutschland Deutschland uber alles’ starts playing in my head?
After reading this piece all I can think of is that stupid old Cher song.
lol… see?
Donnie is good for something… generating ear worms…
I guess we can put off our criticism of the Iraq war and the 2008 financial debacle to just being silly?
Are they referring to a Twitter exchange–or the entire Trump campaign for President? This woman certainly cannot be taken seriously–on any level. She represents in quintessence the Trump campaign’s utter lack of professionalism, decorum, and any shred of dignity to which a candidate may aspire to invest the office with that they contend for.
