Sarah Palin gets trashed by a 10 year old.
The first question came from 10-year-old Adam Chernick, a Tarzana fifth-grader who had a press pass and a preternaturally adult manner. “You are a lot prettier than Tina Fey,” he told Palin.
Carville ushered the boy onstage to ask his question, I guess because he was just too cute. Who knew the most dangerous creature in the lion’s den would turn out to be Simba?
“You said you hate countries that don’t give women rights,” Adam began.
“I don’t think I ever said I hate countries,” Palin replied.
Adam pushed on: “Donald Trump said to Megyn Kelly, ‘You’ve got blood coming out of your wherever.’ How can you endorse someone who said something sexist like that?”
This, of course, brought the house down.
“If he were sexist,” Palin said, “I wouldn’t be endorsing him.”
I stopped Adam on his way out.
Was he happy with Palin’s response?
“No,” he said, “She didn’t even answer my question. I am not happy with Gov. Palin right now.”
