Press Secretary Sean Spicer's longevity.

[jackstar7]

Today, he is weirdly calm, but still having to try and polish so many turds.

He said, "I wish they'd praised his leadership." in reference to the response to Trump's finally talking about anti-Semitism. Funny, I bet they were looking for his leadership for the last month...

So it turns out that there is conduct so egregious that even Trump recognizes that it is wrong, or at least recognizes the need to say it is wrong. It's a start.

Yeah, the defensiveness over Trump and denouncing anti-Semitism was ironic. You know, the press wouldn't have harped on you about it today if your team hadn't purposefully excluded Jews from a Holocaust statement, if Trump hadn't shifted the first question last week back to his own victory, if he hadn't deemed a second question "insulting..." In other words, take an active stance denouncing anti-Semitic behavior instead of supporting theories that your administration quietly supports it.

Why should people be proud of a POTUS that takes 5 days and 2 staff meetings to decide denouncing anti-Semitism and David Duke is proper?

 

[jackstar7]

Today was a wild one. He had to dodge, duck, dive, dip, and dodge.

Spicer tells a woman at an Apple Store who asked him questions, you are lucky our country is so great that it allows you to be here.

Yeah. The woman is a US born citizen of Asian Indian descent. This is the modern Republican Party. Own up to the racism.

Good article!

I was going to say that Spicer is a piece of work, but that same statement would apply to nearly all of the new Administration, Kelleyanne?, Bannon?, Reince?, Sessions?, Davos?, a huge crop of complete misfits unsuited to their current job.

 

[jackstar7]

Good heavens, today Sean was a damn propeller with all that spin.

Quoting Hannity was hilarious. The dodges must continue.

Sean is going to have to refill his prescription for anti-depressants! What a total shit show. So let's look at the scoreboard, Trump, Spicer and Kellyann think that Obama wire tapped Trump Tower. The rest of the world thinks it is BS. Spicer is just not going to be able to come up with enough words to change the dialog. More PILLS!

 

[Commodus]

I'm inclined to think Spicer will buckle simply because of pressure. Even if he genuinely believes Trump's lies at face value (I don't think he does -- he's just in it for the money), how does he keep going when he can expect these kinds of challenges virtually every day until Trump leaves office? And is he really that comfortable knowing that his legacy will boil down to helping a President whose legacy will probably be short-lived and tarnished? Even if Trump makes it the full four years without a position-ending scandal, the next President is likely to be a Democrat who undoes virtually all his policies.

I hope Spicer filled his prescription tonight. He is going to need it tomorrow!

 

[jackstar7]

I don't think whatever he's on will be strong enough for his next briefing.

 

[lopri]

Is it me or why does he sound like he is on helium? Is his mic low quality or something?

 

[jackstar7]

Today's was Spicer humbled. Something to see.

 

[wirelessenabled]

Sort of humbled. What about Manafort? "Manafort was a consultant .... " blah blah blah. History shows that Manafort was the campaign chairman.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

If this healthcare boondoggle doesn't shake him from the drumpf tree of crazy, I doubt much else will.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

No play by play on today's presser? I can't watch and I wanna know how they spin the AHCA failure!

Seems like change the subject is step 1. I'll be checking it out in a minute via cspan as usual, just need to get in a headspace where I can handle it.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

Seems like Spicer is growing into the roll this last conference he wasn't as combative and genuinely appeared to have fun at some moments

 

[jackstar7]

I learned that Sean Spicer appears to think that there are more types of antisemitism than that against people of Jewish faith.

Curious when we'll learn more.

And I don't think he had a good day today. The press has been getting increasingly challenging to the mouthpiece of the admin. That's a good thing for everyone, except the administration and him.

 

[jackstar7]

You have probably seen how things went today.

He's painfully bad at this. Or exceptionally good, but the admin he works for is so awful...

I honestly wonder how people like Spicer and Conway live with themselves. I don't care if you're paying me $1 million per year, I couldn't live with myself if I was knowingly telling blatant, genuinely harmful lies to the public every single day. To paraphrase: what profiteth a man to gain the world and lose his integrity?

 

[wirelessenabled]

Spicey's time is getting shorter! What a tool. Of course who could keep up with the Trumpster anyway?

 

[wirelessenabled]

Spicer has yet another bad day. Trump is too unhinged for anybody to report on in a coherent way.
