Donald Trump’s spokeswoman was on CNN again, but this time she wasn’t causing controversy by virtue of the barely filtered nonsense being ejected from her throat, so much as what she was wearing around it.
Pierson was last seen on CNN declaring that Muslims have no right to complain about civil rights violations, what with their being Muslim and all, but on Tuesday she was appearing on “The Lead” to talk about Trump turning his attention away from the GOP field and toward Hillary Clinton.
After her appearance, however, all anyone on either side of the aisle wanted to talk about was one particular sartorial decision:
My god! @jimsciutto is @realDonaldTrump's surrogate Kristina wearing a bullet-necklace? Appalling pic.twitter.com/ujFnAhYtrO

Surely @KatrinaPierson wore bullet necklace on #CNN to bring attention to 90 Americans fatally shot daily #gunsense pic.twitter.com/o45m0V1hXe

News of her neck-wear eventually percolated up to Jim Sciutto, who had conducted the interview with Pierson but neglected to inquire about it, possibly adhering to the journalistic convention that requires one never to talk about a politician’s fashion sense unless it involves Hillary Clinton and a pantsuit:
.@KatrinaPierson We noticed your bullet necklace on our air. Is there a message behind it? #TheLead pic.twitter.com/NZuQyvNV4f

Pierson’s replied as anyone familiar with her or her employer would expect:
Made in #Texas! Real ammo. #2A Support your local small business owners! #Trump2016 https://t.co/6T4zYWDqeR

But because her employer is Donald Trump, of course she had to take it one step farther:
Maybe I'll wear a fetus next time& bring awareness to 50 million aborted people that will never ger to be on Twitter https://t.co/UTomoyYXLK
