While she was the alpha version of Bobert/Green and dumb as hell, she never said that. It was the SNL bit that did and many of us remember her saying it, but she didn't.

TBF, her actual phrasing wasn't any better.

The question that sparked all this was essentially "What's your foreign policy experience?"

Her answer was basically "Alaska is close to Russia!"
