So Olivia Nuzzi is clearly a piece of shit who can never work in journalism again after this.
And, also, Ryan Lizza is clearly a piece of shit who should never work in journalism again after this either.
We're all agree on that, right?

Added the new CLA with EQ Technology to ye olde spreadsheet, and the base 250+ spec, with delivery, comes out to 7.71 miles of range per $1,000 spent on the car.
