Sean Spicer: Oprah Winfrey Has 'No Political Infrastructure' - Good Morning Britain



Joe Madison has been playing a clip from Spicey's interview with Piers (wildest part starts at 2:16). The GOP's hypocritical and idiotic thought processes are so instinctually autonomic, that it leaves non-Americans in awe of the guile.

Oprah is everything 45 is not. She is someone who made her fortune from nothing. I remember watching her as a reporter on local TV in Nashville when I was a kid. She didn't have a father that seeded her fortune.

Oprah is a humanitarian. 45 is a selfish narcissist.

Spicer lied for 45 from day one. He lied for the man who had no political infrastructure and was nothing more than a reality TV personality. He, like the rest of them, is disgusting.

She paid some dues and was a true "rags to riches" entrepreneur. She was not only able to appeal to a wide demographic but she was willing to do the work behind the scenes to not only maintain her businesses but to "keep it moving" with "brand refreshes" as tastes and interests changed, and all without the criminality of Drumpf and some others in the entertainment world.

However as I have always posted here, "government is NOT a 'business'". Business has a goal of profit and government does NOT. And this obsession with trying to impose a business mentality to government to satisfy the cravings of an overabundance of MBAs out there trying to find something to do with their degrees, is something that needs to be fought against over and over and over again.

Spicey is trying to reboot so expect to see him bopping around with obscure media appearances for some time in the future.
