Donald (They can pile it this high) Trump is saying: "I'll tell you, folks, how dishonest the media is. You all know when I wrote that Tweet, I put quotation marks around the words 'wires tapped,' meaning not really. . . . Like just the opposite. . . . So when I wrote tapp my phones without quotation marks in the second tweet, I didn’t need them because they carried over from the first. . . . That's the rule. . . . But the press doesn't tell you that, now does it?

Sean ("Don't make me come down there"
Spicer is saying: "The White House utterly condemns the dastardly and criminal act of stealing two pages of The President's 2005 tax returns. We consider it a brazen felony against President Trump and the entire nation. . . . But to answer your question, The President is not interested in discovering who leaked these returns. . . I know we've gone to great pains trying to find leakers before, but we've decided, with this one, to just let it drop. . . . We're feeling generous. . . By the way, did you see how good those returns made the President look?"

Kellyanne (The Golden Cobra) Conway is saying: "Are you kidding, Donald Trump is the sanest man I've ever known. . . . Why he never locked his daughter in the closet for over 26 hours or made her watch Lawrence Welk reruns until she vomited. . . . He never called his sister a "skanky opportunist" while spreading rumors about her fetishes all over town. . . . He never wore army boots and kicked his naked wife around during their honeymoon just to hear her cry for mercy. . . . Yes, Shepard, I've know may men and Donald Trump is saner than any of them."

Rep. Steve King is saying, "I'm not a racist, I'm a patriot! . . .

That's not racist; that's just the truth. . . . Now I'll bet the left-wing media will attack me for that."

Rep. Steve (truth-deaf for over 40 years) King is saying: "I simply can't believe the polls, Chris, that you suggest show the majority of American support the Affordable Care Act. . . .

Sean ("I always bring the lube" Hannity is saying: "So now we know at least two things for certain. Number one: it was the CIA, using stolen malware which would implicate the Russians, that hacked the DNC. Isn't it curious that they were the ones who both claimed to discover the hacking was the work of the Russians and then, conveniently, it was the CIA who confirmed the reports of Russian hacking! . . . How obvious can you get? . . . Two: it was the CIA who doctored and then released reports of General Flynn's contacts with the Russian Ambassador and then got him to lie about them to the Vice President. . . . . . It's getting harder and harder to believe!!!"
