White House Press Secretary: Golf Is Not OK While U.S. Mourns (Trump Exempt)

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany once weighed in on an American leader golfing while Americans are mourning: It’s inappropriate.

But she wasn’t talking about President Donald Trump golfing as the nation edges closer to a 100,000 death tally from COVID-19.

She was complaining in 2017 about former President Barack Obama golfing after the murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in 2002. Obama was a state senator in Illinois when Pearl was kidnapped and later beheaded by terrorists in Pakistan.

“I think when we’re in a state of mourning, you should take time off from the golf course,” McEnany said on CNN, where she was a commentator at the time and already a staunch Trump defender. She claimed Obama expressed how upset he was at Pearl’s killing, then “rushed off to a golf game.”

2. Really?

Can we PLEASE make sure that she is reminded of that "quote" at her next press conference?

And, might I add, hell-of-a-job with the "vetting" of your new "press secretary!"

6. A telling thing about this is how far they had to dig to find ANYTHING to criticize about Obama

In 2017 they had to go back 15 years?! We don't have that problem finding faults with tRump...just look back 5 minutes. Literally.
