Katrina Pierson, former national spokeswoman for Donald Trump, made an appearance on Megyn Kelly's show to defend Donald Trump's lies that "millions of people voted illegally."

As expected, Pierson was useless, claiming the recount was sinister and nefarious. Kelly was having none of it, asking seriously why Trump has to lie when he already won.

She asked Pierson what this is based on and where he gets his evidence. Pierson pointed to some examples that have been highlighted in the news, which led Kelly to say, “That does not make millions.”

She bewilderedly asked, “Why do you want anyone looking at anything when your team won?!”

Pierson said that Trump just wants to set the record straight, but Kelly said this in response. “He should stick to the facts… Why isn’t it enough for him that he won the electoral college? Why does he have to make up information that he also won the popular vote, which he lost?”

Watch Pierson splutter and splat above. I wonder if she'll be the go-to for Sunday shows after he takes office. God forbid.
