Did I just see Sean Spicer asking a question?

[underpants]

What the hell is he doing there?

If I was "Peter" I would have gotten up on screen and walked out.

[uponit7771]

1. Yes, that was scary ...

[BumRushDaShow]

2. That's who it looked like and I said the same

and if that was him, he acted like he didn't even know who it was.

[nolabear]

5. Why were his eyes purple? And why is he there?

[BumRushDaShow]

8. I lost track of what he was doing after the stories of him on Dancing with the Stars

[leftieNanner]

28. Was he wearing that "pretty" green shirt?

Or was it the Melissa McCarthy version in the Ivanka Trump shoes?

Inquiring minds.....

30. Plaid!

7. I didn't even hear what question he asked

Suddenly I see Spicer in full purple.

[BumRushDaShow]

11. I don't remember either

I think I was still in shock wondering if that was him or not.

21. See post #4. He brought Feinstein into the discussion

Diverting from Burr. Also it gave Trump a break.

[BumRushDaShow]

25. But he didn't get recognized for a question until after Drumpf mentioned Feinstein's name

explicitly.... right after the reporter asked about Burr and Loeffler... and then Drumpf went on to deny knowing anything about the stock incident... at least that's what I recall.

3. Slowball....

They need to pepper the presser with some mild Spice to help things go better for Dear Leader....

[global1]

4. It Was A Set-Up So He Could Hit Feinstein....nt

9. Oh. That was his question.

Thanks I missed it.

[Totally Tunsie]

6. Thought I was seeing things!

Is that Spicer or a doppelganger?

[underpants]

10. Trump just had his Jeff Gannon moment.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

12. It was like one of the moments on SNL when the host takes audience questions

and there's another celeb planted there.

[BumRushDaShow]

14. Yes!!

He was like a "guest star" on this (un- ) reality show!

[renate]

16. Lol! Exactly!

They’re not even trying to be subtle any more after that OAN reporter asked yesterday whether “Chinese virus” was racist and he said (spoiler alert) no.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

13. Spicer was just rehired by WH in Feb.

For Fellowship program. Along with Reince Priebus.

[underpants]

15. So he basically has staff asking questions now?

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

19. looks like we've come full circle

[BumRushDaShow]

17. I remember hearing about Priebus and Hicks coming back

and now that you mention it, I do think I remember Spicer coming back. But then why would he be sitting with the rest of the press?

[underpants]

20. He's a Visiting Fellow from Harvard

Yeah. Spicer. Harvard.

[BumRushDaShow]

23. So someone who was his first Press Secretary sitting in the back wants to be recognized

and rather than pointing to him and saying "Sean?", he points to him and says something like "You--".

[underpants]

24. Exactly

We both missed the question - my head was down posting here - I look up and it like Sean Spicer doing an Easter Bunny bit.

[underpants]

27. From below. He's there for Newsmax. I notice he didn't have anything to take notes.

So that was a prepared question just to introduce Feinstein's name.

22. Newsmax

Sean Spicer is a member of the media due to his recently launched cable show and is representing his employer, Newsmax today.

26. Thanks. Still....wow

[spanone]

33. Like a mob family, no one ever really leaves....

[True Blue American]

29. Yes.

Makes Trump look like a fool. Yesterday it was a Reporter from AON, via Maralego.

31. Kelly O'Donnell effortlessly nailed it: "not appropriate to question one's former boss"

Kelly O'Donnell ✔@KellyO

It is simply not appropriate for the former press secretary to sit among journalists to ask questions of the president he served. The door between politics and media sometimes revolves but it is not appropriate to question one's former boss.

32. YES, AND IT WAS THE GREATEST QUESTION, EVER ! PERIOD !
