Kasie Hunt, CNN's chief national affairs analyst, has some explaining to do. According to aggrieved liberals on Twitter, at least.
Hunt's offense? Challenging the prevailing narrative that Republicans face a national reckoning following the disastrous California recall election. Instead of concurring with her peers, CNN's newest hire argued in a Twitter thread that Democrats face challenges of their own, including the difficulties Democrats had motivating liberals and moderates to vote until Republican Larry Elder became tied to Donald Trump.
Hunt's comments were quickly ratioed as prominent lefties appeared irked that CNN's chief national affairs analyst didn't toe the company line.
Hunt's former MSNBC colleague Malcolm Nance didn't appreciate her analysis.
Others were quick to pile on.
According to the Pew Research Center, Twitter users are by 16 points more likely to identify as Democrats than all U.S. adults.
