The Federalist Senior Writer Mary Katharine Ham joined “CNN Newsroom” on Tuesday, where she discussed President Obama’srecent interview with talk show host Samantha Bee.

“What a pair, Samantha Bee and President Obama. One is an unfunny liberal ideologue boosting the base with bad dad jokes, and the other is the president,” she said. “I think this segment on the show probably did what they wanted it to do, which is to reach the right audience and reach women with this message.”

Ham discussed Obama’s questioning of Hillary Clinton’s ambition and the problems she will face should she become president.

“When the president talks about [Clinton] having something to hide, that doesn’t just come from sexism,” she said. “That comes from the e-mail scandal, when you talk about her numbers in trustworthiness and six in ten voters saying they don’t find her trustworthy.”
