Erick Erickson: "Its weird that people in the room dont remember Trump using that word"

Again, stopped clock




It’s weird that people in the room don’t remember Trump using that word when Trump himself was calling friends to brag about it afterwards. I spoke to one of those friends. The President thought it would play well with the base.

With so much bull flowing, it must be hard to keep your head above all the sh** in the room and remember it all.

Trump White House staffers lie to the American people every day. These fools don’t realize there is no second act after lying so blatantly and obviously for Trump.

Many times I do not remember the chores my wife orders me to do. Somehow my brain either does not hear it or forgets the order after a short time. I think some in room with tRump had the same problem.

Note: It is playing well with the deplorable base. They are focusing on the word and not the racist comparison it highlighted.

As is homophobia, xenophobia, Islamaphobia and misogyny. And, they think it melts the "triggered libtard snowflakes," which is the icing on the cake for them.

Lied to George Stephanopoulos this morning. Purdue has been "slimy" for a long time. He is above all us serfs.

The biggest leaker in the Trump White House IS Donald Trump. He spends so much time on the phone calling friends, who in turn tell friends what he said, until it makes it to a journalist.

He said it, repeatedly. Grassley called him out on it. And those two Senators don't recall. Uh huh. Sure.

16. I don't recall. I don't remember. I don't think I heard it that way.

All ways to weasel out of interrogations.

So, the follow-up question should be: "Can you tell me what "strong" term the pResident*" used?"

Thought not. They can't remember actually being in the room. They can't remember being voted in to serve the people.

They can remember how to cash their non-government check (tax free!)
