McEnany Spars With CNN’s Tapper After Tweet Alleging QAnon Dogwhistle | Talking Points Memo

Anyone who considers McEnazi as “intelligent” belongs in the State Home for the Criminally Bewildered.

This tells me McEnany must be effectively blackballed from corporate positions that most graduates of senior White House positions fall into. As a result, she appears to have chosen to disgrace herself by embracing Qanon with full-throat. I just hope the media doesn’t give her any oxygen, as she obviously has nothing intelligent to say.

Kayleigh who?

This is easy. Just ask her directly if she will state that q-anon is an outrageous hoax and see what she says. If she refuses to comment ask her if Trump is a child molester.

Does anybody anywhere have the remotest idea why Tapper would devote a single nanosecond of his attention to MacroNinny? Is it a deep-seated need to be lied to? Or, perhaps, it’s some sort of bizarre, masochistic professional courtesy to keep her “face in front of the people” in an effort to keep her “relevant” until she can find a job?

One important question is: who donated how much money to get McEnanny into Harvard? (And has Harvard conducted an investigation?) Surely Harvard doesn’t accept people who are totally obtuse, and if they were to, they either ought not graduate them, or else fix them.

This business about her and Tapper is of a piece with the 24 hour a day news cycle tied to click bait. There should be a new cable channel, which only shows news once every 8 hours, unless there’s something truly significant. In between, a shot of a nice babbling brook, with sound, would be just the ticket.

Is she still here?

So will she be digging the pits or tossing the bodies in?

More proof that the GOP is dead and it’s now the QAP.

I refreshed TPM and saw that giant picture of Kayleigh and thought I had entered a time loop.

She doesn’t do physical labor.
She’ll be the one keeping the record books.

Speaking of North Korea…

I love humanity, but I can’t stand people, or their kids, and I especially can’t stand people showing me the pictures of their kids.

They use abortion as a shield and a cudgel at every opportunity, never answering the question that if it’s all so important to them, why is it still legal after over a decade of Republican domination of SCOTUS and the federal courts (except when it was briefly 4-4).

I’m sick of them acting as if abortion is the only issue that matters, and as if there aren’t Republicans who aren’t pro-choice. And if they care about kids so much, where are they on healthcare and childcare?

If they sincerely want to reduce the number of abortions, there are things we can probably agree on, but knee-jerk demonization of their opponents strongly suggests it’s much more about political theater than the issue itself.

You have to admit, it’s a plan. When you’re job hunting you should have a plan.
