What the H is she talking about????


WH Press Sec. Kayleigh McEnany: “It's worth remembering, [Trump] was never given an orderly transition of power …”

No, but it's worth remembering that President Obama hosted Trump at the White House two days after the election.

And to people who know it's a lie. (Note the jeers from the press after she said that.)

The hell he wasn't! Aside from the fact of Hillary admitting defeat with 24 hours, and Obama congratulating him the same day, and hosting Trump in the White House days later, the Obama White House had EVERY FEDERAL AGENCY prepare briefing documents and set-aside the time to brief the incoming Trumpers. And why did Obama do that - because George W. Bush had done exactly that for him and he was grateful, and would return the favor.

And what happened? The Trumpers never even showed up!!

All on display in Michael Lewis's book, "The Fifth Risk."

Here's a link to a review of what Lewis wrote, and esp. note the Dept. of Energy:
