What a stupid and pointless thing to lie about.

In an address at CIA headquarters on Saturday, President Donald Trump took the opportunity to attack journalists over reports of official numbers at his inauguration. While official estimates have been in the 200,000 range (with images showing a sparsely filled National Mall) Trump claimed he had up to 1.5 million. While video and photo clearly showed otherwise, Trump said in the speech that crowds “went all the way back to the Washington monument.”
Nice to see his priorities are in order and he's spending his time with the CIA wisely.

From now on, everything is going great, fantastic and getting better all the time. Everyone loves Trump. Any reports to the contrary are fake news.

Jesus, he really is the biggest A-hole on the planet. A narcissistic, delusional, childish jackass. This is gonna be a long 4 years. I feel terribly for my American friends who are now stuck with this bozo. (they all voted Clinton)

If this was your real life, and you knew someone who lied so boldly, so pathologically, so consistently, you wouldn't listen to that person. You'd go out of your way to avoid hearing them speak.

This should be the standard now and it should've been the standard during the election.

Trump has nothing of value to say and it is a waste of time reporting on his comments, either in person or on twitter.

This is just comedy. Spicer had a 5.5 minute statement, 4.5 minutes of which was spent whining and lying about the press and the inauguration crowd size, and then he spent about a minute stuttering his way through the actual business of giving updates about the President's activities:

I feel like the SNL folks just had to re-write a sketch or two..

I don't recall the Iraqi Information Minister being so . . . shrill.

They could open the show by airing that presser, and it would be indistinguishable from an actual skit.

That press conference is dystopian. Genuinely unsettling.

I'm disappointed in myself that I thought for one instant that Trump would mature up.

He's a ####ing man child. Seriously, I doubt he'll survive 4 whole years in the oval office. He's ####ing nuts.

"I think there should be another genocide."



"When you say genocide, you mean the women, the children, the kids?

Absolutely.

Why?

. . . So my children and all the other white children have a chance in this world."


Christ.

I feel like the more the media continuing to call it "Obamacare", the less impact it has when Trump is trying to eliminate it.

I feel the only reason the Republicans want to get rid of it is because Obama implemented it.

This is part of their disastrous framing of things contributing to the air of equivalency.

They could repeal Obamacare and introduce the exact same thing and many Americans will call them heros.

You'd be wrong, they want to get rid of it because ideologically they don't believe the people of the United States deserve medical coverage.
