That this backlash was going to happen was so obvious that this is criminally incompetent. Now the focus slowly shifts from Omar -who has apologized -to Trump and King, who have done no such thing. So either King resigns or the next news cycle is dominated by talk of Republican hypocrisy.
“The President did no such thing.”
Mercedes Schlapp said Trump had publicly condemned King. CNN’s Jim Sciutto did not, in the moment, say "The President did no such thing."
That is the problem. Now Schlaap's assertion is the uncontested facts of the matter on record, in the public's mind. The goddamned media come to interviews armed with a knife, while Trump representatives bring their pistol.Well…let’s see…Steve King is a white, male Republican…so is Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise who have both said essentially the same thing as that brown skinned Muslim girl. C’mon now. This really doesn’t take a rocket scientist.
Mercedes ?
Little Sarah was out-of-office for a job interview ?
Mercedes? Shouldn’t that be Yugo Schlapp?
Dear Pot:
Struggle? Over something so easy?
Rep. King is a white, “christian,” Republican male.
Done.
Reminder: both Trump and Grassley have engaged in anti Soros conspiracies.
Steve KKKing is a Republican alt right white nationalist NAZI sympathizer. So is Trump. Why would he seek the resignation of one of his biggest followers?
I wish it were so, but much of the media is so into “both-sider-ism” reporting that calling out one side for complete hypocrisy is not part of their repertoire (a few folks on CNN try from time to time, as does MSNBC, but its not typical).
And on FOX new King is a christian fighter for America, and Omar is a terrorist democrat who hates Jews. That Steve King actually is demonstrably anti-Semitic is sort of sui generous to them.
Sad, but true. If their were truly a god, she would have sent Rupert Murdoch into the fiery pits of hell where he belongs a long time ago.
Mercedes Schlapp graduated with honors with a degree in Prevarication, Discombobulation and Diversion Studies at Trump University.
Will someone please schlapp the schlitt out of this lying schlut?
hell, Sciutto showed up with a water pistol. He not only let Schlapp get away with the lie about Trump, he let Schlapp go on and on about Omar without once challenging her chariacterizations — or insisting that she answer his question.
Not really a pistol so much as a firehose of high pressure bullshit.
I mean it’s really not a sophisticated deflection or anything.
Trump campaigned for Steve King last fall.
And the WH struggles to explain everything, because it’s currently staffed by incompetent nitwits, lackwits, halfwits and fuckwits who are just fine with working for a raving racist for whom anti-Semitism is second nature.
As Barry Goldwater declared: Lying in defense of fascism is no vice.
Schlank you!
I would imagine it’s hard to think and remember stuff like what the president actually did when your skin is pulled that tight around your head.
