Wow -- Nancy Mace gets mad when George Stephanopoulos asks her how she can support Trump despite claiming to care about rape victims.

"You are trying to shame me this morning, and I think it's disgusting," she says.

But Stephanopoulos holds his ground!
STEPHANOPOULOS: Why are you supporting someone who has been find liable for rape?

NANCY MACE: He was not found guilty in a criminal court of law.

(So I guess that's the standard now.)
MACE: If you want to defend a woman who made a mockery out of rape, then you go ahead and do that.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Well, actually what you're doing is defending a man who has been found liable for rape. I don't understand how you can do that.
