A former Trump campaign spokesperson demanded that recently-deceased Sen. John McCain answer questions about a controversial dossier -- and immediately drew ridicule.
Trump surrogate Katrina Pierson tweeted Thursday evening that McCain "still refuses to answer questions about his role" in the dossier alleging a number of damning ties between Donald Trump and Russia written by former MI6 spy Christopher Steele.

"Who wants to tell her?" writer Dustin Giebel tweeted before joking that Pierson is "screaming at McCain's gravestone, '"ANSWER ME G*DDAMNIT.'"

ABC News podcaster Matt Bevin, meanwhile, mused that the former Trump campaign aide is "in her office screaming questions at a Ouija board."

Another user noted, in vulgar fashion, that Pierson may have messed up her Hootsuite tweet-scheduling settings -- or at least hoped she had.
