MSNBC's Jean-Pierre Wipes Out Preservationist's Guard Of GOP Shutdown Strategies

Savant Karine Jean-Pierre acted like she couldn't trust her ears on Saturday when Washington Times author Jen Kerns said that for the Democratic Party to cut to the reason for the Dreamers is "personality governmental issues" and that it will cost them autonomous voters in the 2018 midterm decisions.

“It just sounds so crazy,” said Jean-Pierre. “That makes no sense at all. How is it that Democrats are responsible for this? The Republicans own everything in Washington. This is a basic civics lesson.”

“Which branch of government do the Democrats run?” she demanded. “None. Which branch of the government does Chuck Schumer run?”

“It just doesn’t make any sense,” she continued, then Kerns tried to interrupt.

“Wait, no, let me finish,” Jean-Pierre said. “You just went off on this ‘What you thought Democrats would need to be worried about, let me finish, here.”

She brought up that if Republicans thought about the children whose social insurance they're undermining, they could have voted on it "months back," yet rather they've taken "those 9 million CHIP kids prisoner."
