I love the part where he assures us we must screen 5 year olds from those countries to make sure they don’t pose a threat. Five years olds??? What a dipshit!!! ---

It’s just “extreme vetting.” Yeah, I’d say not even considering letting anyone get in (you know … a “ban”) would be pretty extreme as vetting goes. It’s just typical Republican strategy. Remember how Judge Garland got “extreme hearings” on his Supreme Court nomination. ---

It amazes me how the people who run this country are like children. They don’t understand the value of truth, can’t understand why they’re being mocked and assume everybody’s just being mean. Do they spend their entire working lives in one room insulated from all the bad things? ---

Here’s the thing: Melissa McCarthy plays Spicer as way more tough and belligerent than he really is. I think Spicer lost all credibility with the WH press corps in his first “briefing” and ended up looking extremely weak. One could argue that McCarthy is actually doing him a favor by playing him this way. ---
