ABC’s chief political analyst took on Tomi Lahren on Twitter earlier tonight … and lost. Badly.
The exchange started after Dodd linked Trump’s travel ban to gun control measures:
Why do the same folks who push for a travel ban (which does nothing on security) also fight against gun reform saying it will do nothing?

Tomi Lahren’s response:
Well Matt ISIS explicitly said it places sleeper cells in refugee population while law abiding gun owners DO NOT promise to murder. Got it? https://t.co/boiyqvOl3m

But rather than quit while he was behind, Dowd got stupid. Really stupid:
More Americans were killed in Las Vegas in one night than have been killed by radical islam in last ten years.

Wait, is he serious about that? Apparently so:
Huh??? It is a fact.
— Matthew Dowd (@matthewjdowd) October 8, 2017
Keep digging!
Last ten years. Can you read?

What i find fascinating is the Trump fan club constantly calls other people stupid. And when you respond w/ facts, they get pissed.

Sigh. Here are the facts:
Add Orlando and San Bernardino together and already your tweet is exposed as fantastically false https://t.co/RV7FSrgCkl
