The White House Is Now Doctoring It's Transcripts

Remember when Sarah Palin came along?
She was insane, but eventually her influence waned and we all breathed a sigh of relief.
But then along came Donald Trump: even more insane; and HE got elected president.
But that's not all.
Now we have Anthony Scaramucci, Trump's new director of communications.
He might be the craziest of the lot.

Scaramucci says Trump is a super-competitive guy: "He sinks 3-foot putts," but here's the official White House transcript:
"He's the most competitive person I've ever met...He sinks 30-foot putts."

This is mostly being treated like a joke.
It's the Kim Jong ll-ization of the president:
He sets world records at Scrabble!
He once hit a home run off Sandy Koufax in a pickup game!
He swam to Staten Island in less than an hour!

But this is not a joke and it's not a mistake.
It was deliberate.
And that's a bigger deal than anyone is letting on.
Transcripts are not supposed to be "revised" after the fact.
Official White House transcripts record exactly what the person said, regardless of "what they meant to say."
Every White House has abided by that rule, including Trump's.

Until now.
And guess who's in charge of transcripts?
The White House communications director, Anthony Scaramucci.
It might be wise not to fully rely on White House transcripts any more.

1. That ties in with his remarks about tRump throwing footballs

and basketballs..

astounding

[Demtexan]

18. Sure.

Trying to appeal to the stupid male trump voter.

Only they would be stupid enough to blieve it.

The only thing trump is throw is a fit.

Reporters should ask to see Trump throw a football and sink a basket.

2. And Trump has the largest hands of any U.S. President

Except, maybe, Lincoln.

4. I think I peed a little on that one.

But, seriously...Scaramucci.

Good grief, alive!

5. Would this violate the Presidential Records Act (PRA)?

Not that anyone in the White House cares what is legal anymore.

7. My thoughts exactly.

They keep piling on and piling on....it will get them. The Dumpster will have no problem throwing his loyal ass kissers under the bus. This will be interesting.

6. He's got the biggest lard ass I have ever

seen in golf shorts

[alittlelark]

8. I guess u don't golf....?

...cuz there are some real competitors out there for 'biggest lard ass'......

[SunSeeker]

10. I have seen bigger BELLIES out the links, but not asses.

Trump is a pear shaped pile of puss.

[wasupaloopa]

13. I golf at times but not with any lard asses

[SunSeeker]

9. OFFS. If it is not what a person actually said, then it is NOT a "transcript"!

We should now call these things what they actually are: White House Press Releases.

[BarbD]

11. Exactly!

[Bob Loblaw]

12. Kicked Chuck Norris' ass too

What else has Trump supposedly done?

14. This is a job for Winston

"It was as though some huge force were pressing down upon you – something that penetrated inside your skull, battering against your brain, frightening you out of your beliefs, persuading you, almost, to deny the evidence of your senses. In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it. Not merely the validity of experience, but the very existence of external reality, was tacitly denied by their philosophy. The heresy of heresies was common sense. And what was terrifying was not that they would kill you for thinking otherwise, but that they might be right. For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four? Or that the force of gravity works? Or that the past is unchangeable? If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable…what then? "

15. I couldn't understand.....

the "three foot putts" thing. A three foot putt is usually nothing to sink. Now a 30 foot putt.......hell yes, but even the Pros sink less than 10% of those. So the "Mooch" saying he's seen Trump drain 30 foot putts all the time is a bald faced lie.

The "Mooch" lies just as much, or perhaps MORE than Trump, if that's humanly possible.
