Genius

In posting about the First Amendment yesterday,The Other Political Junkie included video of SNL's hilarious cold open, but this blog would be remiss if we did not also mention that episode's 'second cold open.' Melissa McCarthy was simply brilliant as Press Secretary Sean Spicer. McCarthy's physical comedy combined with the spot-on take of the absurdity and sore-winner-anger of the Trump propaganda machine is TO DIE FOR! "Your word!"

 

First Press Conference by the Trump Administration

(Spicer Assails Media For 'Misrepresenting' Inauguration Crowd)

What'd I miss?

So according to the Trump press conference:

Trump: "I did not pee on those women, unnamed Russian teen sex workers."

He has no business dealings with Russia (despite what his son has publicly said in the past).

His bromance with Putin continues unabated.

He has almost no debt. (lolololol forever)

Some business attorney he hired who spoke today is somehow the best, most classy, bigly Constitutional expert on emoluments ever!

He's doing nothing that real ethics experts consider to be enough to wall himself off from his business (Uday & Qusay will manage them and never breath a word about it to Daddy).

CNN is "fake news."

He doubled down on crying that he's living in Nazi Germany because people are mean to him.

He's replacing Obamacare one hour after it is repealed...

And, because "Hillary, Hillary Hillary, DNC, DNC, DNC"

What'd I miss?

If I understand the prosecutor correctly, Micheal Brown is dead because of social media.
