Lol, even Brainfart is criticizing Bum

You know it's bad when even Brainfart is criticizing another Republican...

Local 5's Chief Political Reporter asked Iowa's top politician, the longest serving governor in U.S. history, about handling tough questions.

Governor Terry Branstad said you have to have thick skin.

Reporter Amanda Krenz asked, "What about when local reporters like myself get under your skin a little bit?"

Branstad said, "I have so many years of experience, I try not to show it. I learned a long time ago, even if you're not happy or you don't think the questions is fair, remember you're talking directly to the people."

That video will hopefully haunt him until he loses his seat in 2018.
