Stephanie Grisham, the Press Secretary since July 2019 is out. In her tenure she conducted zero press conferences - a most impressive record. On the other hand, she did appear on FOX many times. Isn't this the job of the Press Secretary - bypass real press conferences but appear on State Run TV to spew propaganda?

She was replaced by Kayleigh McEnany, another in a long line of Trump press secretaries that will speak to the American people in press conferences - fill in the blank - XX times?

The below shows the credibility that Kayleigh brings to her position. See her statements as recently as February 2020. She looks like the perfect team player. She'll fit in well if you're looking for alternative facts.

New White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany Said in February US Won’t See ‘Coronavirus Come Here’

The Trumpster knows he's coming off as the buffoon he is and so must create yet another diversion....Also at play is the fact that the country is starting to ignore his daily sh#t show and are listening and watching the various governors, scientists, and medical experts speak the truth.

Nothing rubs Caligula more than losing attention....He still has his devoted followers, but I suspect those on the fringes are beginning to ignore him now and Caligula's ego can't have that.

Our draft dodging moron of a president can only have people who kiss his a$$ working for him.
A horrible excuse for a leader. He never takes responsibility for anything. A sorry excuse for a man. Got no balls.
Trump and his followers are the biggest contributors to the dumbing down of America. Just the way he likes it.
Trumps boss Putin, laughs every day that the USA , because he knows that with his puppet in charge of our country, we get dumber every day.

That's an interesting question....Since these people are political appointees (they certainly aren't qualified civil servants who were hired because of their qualifications and/or civil service exam scores) and thus serve at the whim of the person who hired them I would bet they get no additional compensation once they're terminated.

And since they were fired, they may not even be eligible for unemployment compensation until well into the future if at all. Although given the current state of things and the stimulus bill recently passed, they be now be eligible for some benefits....

Less than 8 months left to withstand b4 he’s voted out & the sun shines again on the United States of America

If that is the majority concurs - CV could be the final kick in the pants to sway unsure voters - that’s what Dems are hoping anyway - they’re predictably politicizing it

Periodic refrain to be clear
Am not a Trump fan/Biden fan etc
The all out attacks on & undermining of Trump’s agenda & what he’s trying to do, is what I disagree with - I try to look at it (politics etc) minus the hating/mudslinging/empty personal attacks etc - thankfully there are websites/ other sources to get that information minus the garbage

So, 1st sentence is trying to see it from the opposing POV - yes there’s some sarcasm there I guess, am not trying to be a troll

common sense says if he’s this abominable & horrific of a human being, Obviously he has no chance in Nov
w/malice toward none

Our draft dodging moron of a president ...

I'm with ya all the way on dissing the current POTUS, but Washington D.C. is LOUSY with draft-dogders. It's probably the most bilateral slur you can hurl in that town.

Biden dodged the draft also. I realize that DC is full, of them. It seems the far right that was all over Clinton for dodging the draft are ok with Trump. I'm not a Clinton fan, but the hypocrasy is telling.
It's unfortunate that two presidential elections in a row, I don't have a candidate to vote for.
Presidential candidates must realize that to be president, you are also the president for all of the people, not just the ones who support you. I'm in the middle. If you are not far right or far left, we get stuck with someone like Biden. I would prefer someone like Romney, or Kasick.

I'm just ranting today. frustrated mostly with the hypocrasy of Trump and his core.

I disagree. He genuinely believes he's right & that even when presented w/evidence to the contrary about his revisionist history, he simply can't accept it.

He's in so far over his head he's creating nothing but chaos. In one day, he announced he was withholding funds from WHO in retaliation for not warning him about COVID19 (false), changed press secretaries, fired the chief of the oversight committee to prevent fraud, abuse & waste of the $trillion economic package, spouted revisionist history about what Navarro, WHO, & others had warned about going back to 2017 through early this year, may or may not have interfered in the resignation of yet another high ranking military official - the Secretary of the Navy, credited Ivanka w/creating 15mm jobs after his chief economic adviser admitted the small business rescue program was off to a bad start, & had another insulting, belittling confrontation w/the press.

For the 1st time in his life, he's confronted w/something he can't control, whine, lie, or cheat in order to "win." His impatience to make the pandemic disappear is something to fear - both a premature announcement of "victory," an economic revival that can't hold up in the long run, a recurrence of the virus w/o having solved any of the problems - vaccine, treatment, staffing, equipment - of this first wave, & a $trillion package that will be ripe for corruption.

I suppose he could be in such denial that he thinks he's right about the garbage he's spouting. No doubt he's way over his head. However, I suspect that he knows full well he's wrong and is simply continuing the con game he's always played....It's been the pattern his entire life.

For instance removing the IG who was responsible for overseeing the Trillion plus bailout package. I think he did so so he and his crime family and those in the inner circle and outer circle can siphon off as much money as possible from the program. Part of yesterday's mass firing and other stupidity was yet another distraction to hide what's really going on behind the curtain.

No doubt his intention is not to let Congress have any oversight w/o his personal intervention; to him its another slush fund to raid.

His knee jerk reaction to anything negative about virtually any topic is to distance himself by discrediting someone - anyone - else. In addition to Fine, he fired the IG who received the whistleblower complaint that led to impeachment & attacked the HHS IG's report on slow COVID19 testing as "fake" & the IG as an Obama holdover (she's served for 20 years in administrations of each party). All this in about 3 days. It just seems like piling on now.

Wish media wouldn't broadcast his daily diatribes that only spread misinformation. They can show clips of any news experts provide, but there's no need for them to devote an hour every day to his lies & tantrums.

Of course, I also wish Chris Cuomo wouldn't broadcast the progression of his COVID19 illness. No one needs to see that & it certainly isn't journalism. I don't watch TV but those clips or at least pics of a feverish disheveled man in his basement are pretty unavoidable.

Notice how little attention the press is giving to his removal of two very competent long serving IG's? Most of the attention that I have seen/read is all about the interim Secretary of the Navy....It certainly was appropriate that he resign but I believe the other two dismissals are far more important given their responsibilities at this moment in time.

All three however are related to Trump's lies, insecurities, and false narratives he and his enablers have spun about the Covid pandemic. The people fired are either relating the truth about Covid, or overseeing the money in response to Covid, or embarrassed themselves trying to cover up the extend of Covid.....

Another good read on Kayleigh McEnany's statements. No doubt she'll be the perfect fit.

This occurred the day after she tweeted on the meeting of the oil and gas officials. I think at least one Saudi did not want that meeting in any spotlight. Image is very important to .... Cool
