I don't even need to look up her party affiliation to know that she's a republican. I mean, the average age of congress can be blamed equally on both parties, but an octogenarian who talks shit on education, is super "concerned" about the national debt, and speaks in a shitty manner toward a child is definitely republican.

There was a similar story/video a few years back of (the late) Diane Feinstein being a dick to kids when they tried talking to her about climate change. -But I don't think she ever attacked education.
