YIKES: Francesca Hong's Clapback at David Axelrod's 'Faculty Lounge Exotica' Dig Takes AWKWARD Turn

As Twitchy readers know, David Axelrod is not a huge fan of Francesca Hong. In fact, he posted some fairly unkind things about her being nutty and a problem for the real deal candidate in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed. Apparently, Axelrod thinks people will tie him into Hong's crazy.

Welp, Hong was none too pleased with Axelrod's comments and went after him today.

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!

This tweet is a perfect example of why the consultant class keeps losing elections. They're totally clueless, and they're hellbent on keeping working-class people out of politics.

Note, Hong's restaurant closed years ago and we're pretty sure she's not working any dinner rushes these days.

Axelrod, of course, helped Barack Obama get elected long ago; in a not so funny way, he's responsible in part for the mess we're seeing on the left. No Obama, no crazy America haters. The guy spent his presidency crapping on our country and blaming us for all the problems in the world, after all.

Working a dinner rush does not make you qualified to be governor. pic.twitter.com/kM5wPuXq8n
