and call the Senator and say I was a Trump voter and no way do I want DeVos.
But of course, I would never do that.

(63,221 posts)9. I saw part of her confirmation hearing. She is a complete idiot.
Elizabeth Warren just pummeled her. She could come back with no reason or defense.
When Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., asked DeVos if she thinks guns should be allowed on school premises, DeVos said that decision should be left up to local lawmakers who might have specific needs. Like grizzly bears.
