According to the latest Wikileaks dump, CNN personality Donna Brazile gave Hillary Clinton a few of the questions from the audience members so she could be more prepared. Breitbart has more:

“One of the questions directed to HRC tomorrow is from a woman with a rash,” Brazile wrote in the email’s subject line. “Her family has lead poison and she will ask what, if anything, will Hillary do as president to help the ppl of Flint.”

Well, that lady — from the above iconic photograph — is speaking out about the fact that Hillary had her question in advance… and still flubbed it.

“This is disgusting and appalling!!! This should be an automatic disqualification!” Walters said. “You think she would have answered it better at the very least!”

In March, Walters asked Clinton and her primary rival Bernie Sanders if they would “make a personal promise” to “remove all lead service lines throughout the entire United States” from public water systems in their first 100 days as President. Moderator Anderson Cooper’s introduction mentioned Walters’ family’s troubles with lead poisoning.

I agree. You think with advanced warning she could do better than this:

Walters told the Huffington Post that Hillary’s answer made her sick:

“I hated Hillary Clinton’s answer,” Walters, 38, told The Huffington Post on Monday. “It actually made me vomit in my mouth.”

Walters, an early whistleblower in the Flint water crisis, had asked whether as president, Clinton and the Vermont senator would promise to require public water systems in the United States to remove lead pipes.

Clinton and rival Bernie Sanders did not give direct answers. Instead, Clinton proposed getting rid of all lead sources, including paint and dust, within five years.

“We will commit to a priority to change the water systems and we will commit within five years to remove lead from everywhere,” Clinton said.

To Walters, five years is an unacceptable timeline.

“To tell a Flint resident that we’ll handle this in five years is no different than what the city was telling us and what the state was telling us,” Walters said.
