U.S. Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., claimed this morning that Democrats were “gaslighting” the public by questioning U.S. Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi’s qualifications during her confirmation hearing.

Britt followed up by saying she had just recently learned the meaning of the word.

“I think it is absolutely, completely ridiculous that anyone on the other side of the aisle would ever say that you are anything but immensely qualified for this job,” Britt said.

“From your time as a career prosecutor, to then a two-time attorney general of the third largest state, with regards to all of the people that operated underneath you, with what you were able to achieve, it is truly remarkable.”

“The United States of America could only be so fortunate if you were confirmed to have someone of your caliber, of your intellect, and of your experience running a department that unfortunately has been run into the ground.”

Britt continued that Democratic Senators’ concerns that Bondi may not be the right choice due to an inability to say no to President Elect Donald Trump were “full on gaslighting.”

“Which by the way I had to get my children to explain to me what that was,” Britt said.
