I felt sorry for the guy.

Spicey gives it up, finally

I bet he's going to be roaring drunk by 5pm (assuming he isn't already). Almost makes me want to drive DC and try to find him so that I can share in the merriment.
One can't be me and have any sense of pride, so if anyone in the White House wants to call me about the job I am all ears.
I would do it too. Though I'm pretty sure my tenure would last about an hour past my first press conference. But it would be epic.
Great news for democracy! I'm praying Spicer is already cooperating with the investigation.
Of all of the people in the Administration, I suspect that Spicer is near the bottom when it comes to having relevant or useful information regarding the investigation(s). Heck, he rarely had any useful or relevant information pertaining to his job duties.
Here's why I'd disagree with that...
1. The Press Secretary is the voice of the President. They regularly had 1 on 1 convos prior to Spicer meeting with the press.
2. Given Trump's penchant for opening his trap, one wonders what he has told Spicer in private.
Hmm, anyone else thinking the PR firm of Spicer and al-Sahhaf* would be an instant hit?

Whatever happens happens but every person in the administration isn't involved in some conspiracy with the Russians. Lol. It gets comical on here.
With Trump's inability to keep his mouth shut, Spicer probably knows too much for your comfort.
I've got news for you. If Trump did what you think he deserves whatever he gets. His biggest screw up of all the screw ups was not appointing political hacks like Holder & Lynch to the AG position.
Like Sessions isn't a hack....lol. And why exactly do you consider Holder and Lynch to be hacks?
I'm sure he's got GREAT stories to tell. Whether we hear them or not is another thing altogether, but I bet he'd get a decent-sized advance for a tell-all book about his six months with team Trump.
He appointed special counsel. What was it Lynch ordered the FBI director to call an investigation?
Okay. Good point. Should be helpful. No time for more abuse. Bank board meeting to attend.
So, your disappointment in Jeff Sessions is that he wasn't enough of a political hack to protect President Trump? You sound as bad as President Trump in your assessment of AG Sessions. Sad.
No. I was commenting on previous AGs. If he was hack like Holder and Lynch he would have not recused and protected Trump. Just being a smartass.
No, you're being a partisan hack yourself. Which you do surprisingly often under the guise of being a smartass. It's starting to look like you really do think all Dems are evil and all Repubs are awesome. Thought you were better than that, but your posting says otherwise.
Just a coincidence she ordered him to call it a "matter" as the Clinton campaign refered to the investigation.

Have you actually followed how press secretaries have done their jobs over the last 40+ years? I'm not defending Spicer, but administration mouthpieces have historically attempted to shape the messaging of their bosses and, while Spicer may have taken that to a new level, he's hardly unique in his mission or in being accused of lying by the opposition party.
Trump fans and the alt right will be changing their tune on Scaramucci once this video goes viral
Draining the swamp by appointing a wall street financier as communications director. The fun never stops.
