You're wrong and she's absolutely right, just like how Mike Pence said walking through Shorja is "like a normal outdoor market in Indiana in the summertime."

I don't know what Shorja is, but I have never been anywhere in NYC that was like anywhere I have been in Ohio.

Ohio sucks!

Ok, yeah. That is definitely even worse than saying New York is like Ohio. Those are crazy people talking.
