A complete train wreck. He didn't make that any better, at all.

You also gotta love the last week:

Pepsi: Well no one can #### something up as badly as we did
United: I mean, would you like to see us try?
Spicer: Goddamn amateurs

You can tell Spicer just hates this job. It's only been 2 1/2 months and the guy looks like he's aged 10 years already.

Oh snap... they added another video to the tweet where he said that Hitler brought them to Holocaust "centers"... like it was a ####ing rec facility?

Thats like 4 videos in a row, each worse than the other. I doubt this will get topped any time soon.

Lol, the Trump administration has even managed to screw up the annual Easter Egg Roll at the White House. The incompetency knows no bounds.

http://www.salon.com/2017/04/11/dona...ster-egg-roll/

Quote:
Stephanie Grisham, Melania Trump’s communications director, told the Times, “Plans for the Easter Egg Roll are well underway, and the White House looks forward to hosting it.” But public schools in the Washington area have heard nothing from the White House, even though they are typically allocated up 4,000 tickets for children.

PBS Kids, which provides the costumes for the event, was also late to know of the White House’s plans. Because of the tardy requests, they will only be providing one “Sesame Street” character this year.

What about military families, which used to account for 3,000 tickets?

“Unfortunately, the Trump administration has not reached out about it,” Ashley Broadway-Mack, the president of the American Military Partner Association told the Times. Congress members have also not been contacted about tickets for their constituents.
Quote:
The delayed process of such a magnanimous event, means the outcome is likely to be smaller in scale. “The evidence points to a quickly thrown-together affair that people close to the planning said would probably draw about 20,000 people — substantially smaller than last year’s Easter Egg Roll, which drew 37,000 — and be staffed by 200 volunteers, one-fifth of the usual number,” writes The New York Times.

Do you think Spicer will make an appearance, for old times sake?

Not good enough! haha Maybe something like Katz gave his young guns hookers and blow at a Rexall on Kingsway would suffice.

Looking forward to tomorrow and hearing about those "cruises" and "pleasure boats" that came from Africa in the 1600-1700s. Society needs Spicer though, we need that one guy we can point to and say "At least someone is worse at their job than me"

Spicer totally missed the mark. The false-equivalency he should have gone with was God killing all those innocent Egyptian firstborn sons. Tell people to watch Ten Commandments next weekend. A misty green gas penetrating the homes of every Egyptian family and killing the children inside! That was a lot closer to Assad's attack than Hitler's holocaust retreats. Plus it's Passover Right Now! The timing would have made it a much better anti-semitically-tinged defense.

Statement by the North Korean State media. The US mainland doesn't get publicly threatened everyday, unless I don't read enough.

Spicer is the Scheherazade of bad news. It's like the administration has the replacement picked, he's ready to go, but they don't want to have the new guy handling a crisis on his first day so they're just waiting for a slow news day. But Spicy has figured out that as long as he can prevent a slow news day from happening, he can keep his job.
