Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith of Mississippi is seemingly cruising to a win on November 3; her challenger, Mike Espy, who would be the state's first Black male senator since Reconstruction, has kept her in the single digits.

The Black woman who asked her the question gets the final word — with just her facial expression.

Watch and squirm:

WAPT told @cindyhydesmith that the @BlmSip protest in Jackson this summer was peaceful and asked her what she thought about that.
