Sean Spicer: Oprah Winfrey doesn't have enough govt. experience to be President.

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/sean-spicer-oprah-winfrey_us_5a539cfae4b01e1a4b1808c5

“She doesn’t have the political infrastructure,” Spicer said. “And we’ve seen this before in our history — where people who have tried to pop in who are not in politics and have had a difficult time adjusting.”

The show’s host, Piers Morgan — also a former “Celebrity Apprentice” winner — seemed like he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

“Sean, Sean, Sean!” he said in response. “The current president of the United States had no political experience! Sean! You were his press secretary! Have you forgotten Donald Trump?!”

Spicer then tried to walk back his comments by saying that Trump’s election “proves there is an appetite for outsiders,” but added, “The question is, was that an anomaly or is that the new norm? And that’s all I’m getting at.”

Spicehead is a talking head spouting talking points and SPIN. He probably does not even think about the meaning of words coming out of his piehole.

When you're so used to LYING non-stop, it's hard to come up with an explanation for those LIES. So you stumble through it, and try to sound coherent.

Spicer is just happy he's still considered relevant enough to be interviewed for TV. His 15 minutes have long since expired, and he's just a joke now.
