Why are they still having this shit that is erroneously called “briefing”? Just walk away already.

The tweets speak for themselves.
The President’s statements are just that.
The President’s tweets are official statements.
The President’s tweets are not official statements, just his thoughts.
He was joking.
He was being sarcastic.
He was being ironic.
Judge what’s in his heart, not what comes out of his mouth.

If anyone can find or follow the logic, please let the rest of us know.

When Trump asked Russia to find Hillary’s emails, he probably already knew Putin had them.

Now if Spice boi said something like:

“Well you know our Trumpie, the poor lad just says whatever comes into his head at the time. Don’t pay him no mind. He’s an odd one.”

I could accept that. But joking requires a cogent train of thought and ability to analyze cause and effect relationships which lead to comic outcomes. And that ability, Trumpie surely lacks.

“He was joking at the time. We all know that,” Spicer replied.

Trump is always joking, except when he’s not.

Alternatively, Trump never jokes, except when he does.

Spicer’s rulers for press briefings:

  1. Trump is always right.
  2. If Trump is wrong, see rule 1.
