Buzzfeed dude put a stop to Greta's "mandate" yammering on This Weak
This would be one Ben SMITH, editor in chief of Buzzfeed, (formerly?) of Politico. VAN SUSTEREN was hogging all the air time with her line that the President's initial press reaction about "they had a good night," meant he was dismissing it as "a sporting event instead of (a rejection of his policies)," which she repeated.
When SMITH got a word in, he said that the winners always take "the latest election as a mandate (which it's not)." After she sucked her breath back in, she got in another repeat.
