  • "....And it was hard to believe that the White House press secretary could be careless enough to erroneously make such a radical suggestion.

    Or, rather, it was hard to believe that if one failed to remember that Sean Spicer is very, very bad at his job."

    LOL! No mercy.

    And the comments are just as funny - "He lies about lies. Why even give him a microphone? Just put the guy in a broom closet with a hairbrush to talk into, and let him do his thing. Spare me."
  • I've watched Saturday Night Live since its birth and Spicer is as good, 'cept for the position he holds in this WH administration and the "skits" are for real, eh?
  • The first press secretary for many Presidents are hilariously weak. Mr. Spicer sets a new standard however...he's simply bad.

    "This would be huge news. More than 90 million Americans have a tax-advantaged retirement account. The tax exemption for 401(k) contributions is the lifeblood of a large swath of the retirement investment industry. To do away with that exemption would be such a disruptive change to the tax code that it was hard to believe that the White House would casually reveal it in the middle of a daily press briefing. But then, it had previously been reported that the White House was considering removing pretax benefits from retirement accounts. And it was hard to believe that the White House press secretary could be careless enough to erroneously make such a radical suggestion."

    Let them eat cake. (err ... let them play golf in Florida)
