16. She can't stop him from lying. All she could do was contradict him, which she did with facts

And she challenged him on his hypocrisy very well and had him stammering and sounding ridiculous.

It's not a journalist's job to produce Perry Mason moments in which the subject breaks down and admits they're guilty. That's not going to happen. All they can do is ask them tough questions, stay on them, get them on the record, and allow the viewers to see the lies. I think she made him look ridiculous.

We obviously have different view of her. I think she's very good.
