The South Dakota governor complained that the host of “Face the Nation” had interrupted her “once every 25 seconds”—something that would never happen to, say, Gretchen Whitmer.
Oh man, it was worse than I thought it would have been.
She was asked multiple straight-up “yes or no” questions, and would dance around or try completely change the subject. When the interviewer called her on it, she’d spout nearly the same talking points again, and sometimes even a third time. If she was complaining about being interrupted its because, several times, she completely ignored the question being asked and simply went off into unrelated campaign style language. She was interrupted when the interviewer was pulling her back to answer the question being asked.
90% of the questions she was asked were about direct quotes from her book. She even said “I refused to discuss who I met with”…but she had no problem discussing those things in the book? So bizarre.
Her: “Why don’t you ask Joe Biden about things he misspoke about?”
Interviewer: “I haven’t gotten an interview with Joe Biden, but I will ask him when I do. I have an interview with you so I’m asking you about what you said.”
Did she take too much Xanax before that interview? I only got a few minutes in but there was zero inflection in her voice even when they called her on her bullshit of claiming to have met Kim Jong Un.

Can she see North Korea from her backyard?
