It’s kind of bizarre. She was reading from her notes just before the clip. The notes said the reporter was talking to a Trump supporter, so that can’t have been a surprise. I guess the supporter being black harshed her mellow. Did I hear her say they ‘cut the sound’ on the rest of the clip?
She just assumed by "Trump supporter" that it would be some slack-jawed yokel, missing a few teeth, wearing a KKK T-shirt, and spouting racist talking points. Listening to the media spin for the past couple of days, how could she think otherwise?
