Is Sean Spicer the new Baghdad Bob?

[timosman]

And why is he reading from a hard copy during the press briefing? He did the same thing in his interview with Jon Karl. I don't recall other press secretaries doing this. Maybe they did and I don't recall. Did the Trump team do any auditions for this job? He seems like some gangster out of a James Cagney movie.

He lost a bet and had to be a press secretary for a day.

No, he was hand-picked by Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, it goes back to when they partnered with Team Trump to turn the RNC into a top-down organization and shut out grassroots conservatives:

It's all about not allowing them to kill you with a thousand cuts. They will lie and lie and lie and lie. So if you make every fight a lie, you look like an $#@! but you win. So I rather be an $#@! as long as I win.

Good point. Except I'm not certain they get the win by simply responding with a transparent lie.

Nice strategy but isn't there someone else Reince might have partnered with?

This is getting wild. Conway just went on TV and called the lies "alternative facts".

what lies?

This is the press conference, calling you out on two threads. State the Time stamp where Sean Spicer lied.

Donald Trump does apparently. This isn't about the crowd size. It's that Trump directed his press secretary to go out and lie about a stupid point that was easily proven false. Will Trump's vanity and popularity be more important than issues? It brings into question how in the world will Trump and his staff handle an actual national crisis?

You keep saying he lied, when did Spicer lie?

If they can repeal TPP that would be another great victory.

His first set of executive orders targetted the TPP. The TPP is basically already dead:

President Donald Trump began his four-year term of office with a series of executive orders and actions aimed at dismantling key policies of the Obama administration.

1 WITHDRAW FROM TPP

The new administration said its trade strategy to protect American jobs would start with withdrawal from the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade pact.

Of course, the MSM, CPUd, Zippy et all, want the discussion to be about crowd sizes and lies that were never told. Because they are agents of the media deceit machine, which does not want Americans to know that Trump is definitely plunging forward. They want people arguing over nothing and media generated controversies.

This is big News in Asia. In America, the big news is about the lie Spicer never told, but CNN said he did.

If it was a transparent lie we would be having this discussion.

If it was a transparent lie we would be having this discussion.

Some things are blatantly obvious to everyone except those who willfully delude themselves otherwise.

 

[specsaregood]

so no mention of the other issue he mentioned about the media claiming that they had immediately removed the MLK bust from the office? which apparently wasn't true?

 

[Superfluous Man]

Contrary to what the fake news has reported. Looks like a lot of people to me.

It wasn't a lot though.

Right; like it's obvious you are not the "supporting member" that you claim. In fact, you're the opposite.

Except it was a transparent lie, and we're having this discussion.

You have it backwards.

It's the Trump defenders who don't support this site's mission.

You're talking about a different issue. I am talking about TheCount.

Of course he didn't lie he just presented alternative facts.
