Republican strategist and political commentator has had enough. She’s had enough of Donald Trump’s lewd behavior and she’s had enough of fellow Republicans defending him. In a segment on CNN last night, Navarro and Trump surrogate Scottie Nell Hughes had quite the headed exchange. Video and rough transcript below:
