Nicolle Wallace Destroys Trump Surrogate for Shilling on Russia: ‘I Hope They’re Paying You a Lot’ (Medaiite)

Since leaving his position as spokesman for Vice President Mike Pence, Marc Lotter has been a regular on MSNBC as a surrogate for President Donald Trump‘s administration. Some of the network’s anchors have been cordial with Lotter. But Nicolle Wallace, for one, has absolutely had enough with what she sees as mindless shilling from Lotter.

On Thursday’s Deadline: White House, Wallace absolutely tore into Lotter after he refused to say whether he trusts special counsel Robert Mueller to conduct the Russia probe.

“You don’t know if you can trust Bob Mueller?!” Wallace asked, incredulously. She added, “Why can’t you say you trust a former FBI director who worked for Republicans and Democrats who kept this country safe after the worst terror attacks on our soil? You can’t say you trust Bob Mueller?!”
