Sanders said the recording “was litigated and certainly answered during the election
Oh ok, so now we’re going to litigate pedophilia in two weeks in Alabama. Good to know!
Seriously, look at how the self-described moral absolutists are now so relativist that we get to vote on whether crimes have been committed. Of course, only in our heavily gerrymandered and vote-suppressed polities.
“He’s made his position on that clear at that time, as have the American people,” [Sanders] said.
“Like I just said, the President hasn’t changed his position,” [Sanders] replied.
“For the last time: President Trump’s position has not changed at all. He still believes that you can do anything that you want as long as you’re a star.”
Pressed to specify what reporting Trump is questioning, Sanders said, “I
said what he didn’t like and what he found troubling were the accounts
that are being reported now.”

Ma Hamhock proceeds to not make sense at all. Situation normal on the Ma Hamhock front. All the media have done is report what trump said. That trump doesn’t now like it does not change the fact that he said the tape was fake. He offered no evidence beyond the statement. If anyone is inaccurate in all this it is trump himself. It now apparently does not matter that he admitted to the veracity of the tape and apologized for it. For trump and his true believers, whatever he says today is reality irrespective of what he might have said at some other time or what objective reality might be. The disturbing thing is he operates this way on subjects of serious substance. For this reason if for no other it would make clear sense to keep the nuclear codes away from him at all times.
This old school administrator recognizes the (never accepted) claims of - the problem isn’t what (egregious action) I did, but the problem is that I got caught. Not only did it never work, it also always made the situation worse for the person employing the strategy.
Then it seems that Franken is in the clear by established precedent. Clearly if “grabbing by the p*ssy” has been litigated and determined as garnering “overwhelming support”, grabbing ass must have some support?
…and on a related note,the WH wishes to remind Senator Franken that he is famous and therefor allowed to proceed and grab whatever he’d like, they’ll just let you do it"
Remember when Spicy was asked questions like this and stammered and hemmed and hawed his way to a non-answer? You gotta hand it to S Huckabee Sanders, because she is ready for this questions and smoothly delivers the non-answers as though they were real live answers, when all they do is provide a vague sense of confusion.
Vague nonsensical responses that appear to say something at first glance are a feature, not a bug. That she is so good at coming up with them is scary. I miss Spicy’s fumbling and sweaty responses, because he was ashamed of the lying he had to do.
It must be great to be a White House Press Secretary, and have to answer questions about whether your boss uttered a racial slur, or whether he has changed his position on whether he can grab women by the pussy.
But this Press Secretary deserves every second of it.
Watching the clothes being worn around the White House, I am beginning to think the White House staff are being forced to buy Iwank Trump’s so-called fashion merchandise. Soon the White House dinner table will be decorated with $3000 endangered clam shells filled with debris and detritus.
The giant eyelashes and the Georgia O’Keefe-type flower with the huge banana leaf print from Iwank Trump’s spring collection were breathtaking examples of trailer park dimestore clearance bin fashion.
Regardless, whatever she spewed from her oral orifice this afternoon was much better than the santorum from the POSUS Anusmouth-Putindickholster’s.
