    To be fair, it’s an unsourced quote from The Daily Hatemail, so odds are that she never said it.

    To be even more fair, though, it’s probably accurate whether or not that bigot ever said it out loud.

      She did say it and its on video. Vivek himself posted the clip on his twitter saying “I disagree with her but respect that she had the guts to speak her mind” How embarassing.

      I’m slightly ashamed to admit it but I actually went fishing for the most clickbaity headline on this story to post to this community. It’s not just a right wing rag talking about it, they just had the most oniony headline

          My profile says I’ve made 2.2k posts and I’m pretty sure this is the first Daily Mail link lol. Why can’t normal people write terrible headlines??

      To be fair… I hate so and so as much as the next guy, but…

      It’s literally on video.
