🚨 POLL: Did you watch the first 2020 Presidential Debate?


CNN’s Dana Bash lost her cool following the first presidential debate, an event in which she described as a “shit show,” according to Breitbart News.

She then defended her use of profanity, noting that the term was appropriate given the aggressive combativeness of both candidates, President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden.

“You just took the words out of my mouth,” Bash said. “You used some high-minded language. I’m just going to say it like it is. That was a shit show. And, you know, we’re on cable.”

“We can say that. Apologies for being maybe a little bit crude, but that is really the phrase that I’m getting, you know, from people on both sides of the aisle on text.”

“And it’s the only phrase that I can think of to really describe it.”
