Discussion: Spicer Says He Never 'Knowingly' Lied As White House Press Secretary

“I could’ve probably had more facts at hand and been more articulate.”

He's saying there were facts available to him, though not cited to reporters, that would have proven his inauguration crowd size claims. Why the hell didn't Good Morning America ask him what those facts were?

Oh, I didn't watch, but maybe the floor producers were telling the anchors to move along, Rachel Ray was ready to demonstrate the newest avocado dip recipe or something.

Fricking morning network news. About as worthless as your civil rights when a cop is pointing a gun at you.

Actually, monumentally dishonest and spectacularly stupid—Spicy is two, two, two dolts in one.

You’re forgetting that a great many of the people attending Obama’s inauguration were actually only 3/5 of a person. Once you do the math Trump is correct.

It depends on what your definition of a lie is?

That, sirah, is an insult to my entire profession. If a client of mine said something like that at a deposition or a hearing after I’d prepped him, I would have to muster all of my poker skills to keep from flinching and avoid face palming or a loud forehead smack (mine or his, could go either way).

Jimmy Kimmel should have this guy on his show and, unbeknownst to Spicer, have a giant buzzer ready and sound it every time Spicer tells a lie…AND before the show have the studio audience participate in a lottery to predict how long it will be before the first lie appears (and the buzzer sounds). The five audience members closest to the correct time will get cash and prizes and a bogus Sean Spicer autograph.

Sean Spicer insisting that millions of illegal votes were cast for Clinton, demonstrating that if you believe in your own lies, as PP does, ipso facto, it’s the truth.

He reminded reporters that trumpp “has believed for a while” and “does believe that” and it’s "been a long-standing belief that he’s maintained" and "it’s a belief that he maintained for a while."

PP asked if was dangerous to lie about millions of illegal votes.

“No. Not at all! Not at all, because many people feel the same that I do.”

@ncgirl741 @inversion What we formerly called lies are today’s truths. Easy peazy.

“I could’ve probably had more facts at hand and been more articulate.”

In other words, you lied, and you weren’t even good at it, which is why those four little monkeys above are laughing.

And this is why people are unhappy this guy was invited to the Emmys. Still a democracy damaging liar with no remorse.

To refresh his memory and set the record straight, Spicer should be forced to watch the video of the hundreds of lies he knowingly spread while doing his filthy, lying job as Press Sec. Something like this:

Trump never asked him to lie but did he ever TELL him to lie? Is this yet another weasel phrase?

Of course Spicer never knowingly lied! And he never knowingly lied about never knowingly lied. Etc. etc.

Never lied, he was just the source of alternative facts…

Spicer is a worse liar and human being that Donald Trump. Trump lies for fun and his own benefit, Spicer lied because he is a spineless lackey without moral compass serving a crook, that wont get anything out of it. Not even Fox News will hire him.

I see your point.

I guess the old saying is true that 98% of attorneys give the rest a bad name. :sunglasses:

A liar tells you he isn’t lying, a bullshitter tells you he isn’t bullshitting.

Kind of like the sound of one hand clapping except it’s not.

Dear Sean,
You used to be standing in a hole holding a shovel. Now you’ve got a backhoe.

“Never knowingly lied” means “I just believed what he said and repeated it. And when he said the exact opposite the next day, I repeated that, and I believed it, too.”

Funny thing? He kinda looks like he could be related to George Costanza too.
