    So you haven’t observed any of her work as White House press Secretary, and the only argument that you can make against her is to invalidate her credentials and education? But hey, if they hired a woman that means that there must have been someone more qualified that they overlooked. There’s absolutely no way or any reason a black queer woman could ever get into that position on merit /s

    That being said, I’m not saying that she shouldn’t be subject to criticism, but why not compare her performance to that of previous Democrat administrations?

      I am not arguing against her. As I said, I’m not familiar with her performance. I have no opinion on that matter.
