MSNBC’s Kasie Hunt accuses GOP House candidate Elizabeth Heng of sexism and being mean
by Greg P.

Elizabeth Heng is a California Republican who is running against incumbent Democrat Rep. Jim Costa in state’s 16th congressional district. And what’s also clear about Ms. Heng is that she’s a woman and her opponent is man. Like here she is talking about domestic violence with other women, including Nicole Brown Simpson’s sister:

Deborah Brown, the sister of the late Nicole Brown Simpson, has a conversation with Fresno DA Lisa Smittcamp on how we need to continue to fight against domestic violence. The Marjaree Mason Center is doing great work to combat domestic violence here in the Valley.

Which is why we find it quite odd that MSNBC Kasie Hunt accused the female Fresno small business owner of sexism over an ad that portrays Rep. Costa walking in Nancy Pelosi’s shoes.

FFS. Now Republican women are sexist over humorous ads? Give us a break. Oh, and she’s mean, too:

And by a little bit I mean.... 👀
And here’s Heng explaining the ad:
If you heard about a politician who voted against the Farm Bill; supports higher taxes, more spending, and gun control; and who sticks by a money-wasting bullet train, you might think of Nancy Pelosi. It’s actually Jim Costa. Watch my new ad, now!”
FWIW, the Cook Political Report lists the race as Likely Democrat.
