So obviously she was asked about a proposition that two for I'm sorry, three fourths of Californians voted in favor of.
And that was Prop 36, which sought to roll back some of the soft on crime policies that actually really hurt this state.
And one of the biggest issues right now is that our Democratic legislature, along with Governor Gavin Newsom, refused to provide the adequate funding in order to make sure we are holding people accountable when they commit crimes over and over and over again.
It appears that Katie Porter is not
in favor of that proposition, but it doesn't matter what she's in favor of.
You should be supportive of what the people of California want, especially if you're running to be the chief executive of this state, right?
And so substantively on policy, I have soured on her, but also her behavior is just unacceptable.
You should be expecting difficult questions and follow-ups when you're doing these interviews.
The fact that she was upset about
at followup questions really doesn't inspire or it doesn't make me inspired by her.
And it doesn't,
really show that she's a real leader, you know?
That's so crazy.
Like that whole exchange was so insane to me.
You know, I'm not a politician, but as someone who works in media, as someone who openly shares her opinion, of course, I'm going to find myself in hostile environments and hostile conversations and debates.
I literally, in the middle of a debate this year, had a tampon thrown at me by a man.
And I did not-
I didn't run away from the debate because, look, your little stunt, whatever.
I'm going to ignore it.
I'm here to debate the substance.
