Gonna repeat again: This is who the #GOP is. Their collective horror at this woman grimacing through her comfortable life is horror at themselves.
It came off as no worse than your average James Comer hearing, after all.
Daily Beast's Jake Lahut:
NEW on private GOP freakout brewing over Katie #Britt's #SOTU response:
“Everyone’s fucking losing it. It’s 1of our biggest disasters ever.” Being likened to Rubio water bottle moment & Bobby Jindal's infamous 2009 SOTU response.

Journalist Jonathan Katz fact checked Katie Britt’s horrific rape story from her over-the-top rebuttal.
Despite all the drama, it turns out to be a story that happened 20 years ago - and not in the U.S. but in Mexico. It’s a story that was recounted in Congressional testimony in 2015.
Katie #Britt lied when she blamed this on Joe #Biden’s border policies and when she said it happened in the U.S. #SOTU
