Sean Spicer may be out of there....Not Just In the Bushes....but out of the Circus Cheeto White House, completely:



Who Is Jonathon Swan:

Nixon Is Alive and His Name Is Donald J. Trump:

1. Oh gawd.

Well, at least the hairstyle is an improvement.

Vintage cool tops modern crazy.

[C_U_L8R]

2. Come out of the bushes, Spicey

And start talking. You owe Trump nothing.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. This photo is the perfect blend of Nixon and Trump!

[tableturner]

4. Not to overly defend the douche Spicer, but really, Trump, you think this is Spicer's fault?

There is not a spin master alive who could have turned yesterday's chicken manure into chicken salad.

[LovingA2andMI]

6. Fair Point...

But hiding in the bushes is more than a bit, Punking Out.

[Cha]

11. Well yeah.. trump thinks his shit don't stink..

[Grassy Knoll]

5. How Do You Get Your Hair To Do That?

[Egnever]

22. Why Dapper dan of course.

7. Who else gets the impression that firing people is just a strategy to take attention

away from poor leadership? In other words, in business, it makes the stockholders feel like you're doing something proactive, and it might work for a little while because you have employees so scared out of their wits that it might increase productivity. But in public administration this doesn't work at all because you leave too many holes in important positions.

Trump doesn't seem to have any other tools in his box, and it looks like this lack of depth is going to defeat him.

8. Word On The Bulls and Bears Street Is....

They Want Trump Out Too. An Unstable American Government With A Cray-Cray 45th Of The Highest Order Is Not Good For Their Bastard Greed Like nature.

[WePurrsevere]

29. And this is probably the major factor that will...

most push GOP in House and Senate to impeach him, this and even more so if they're afraid that their seats are in actual jeopardy. Gerrymandering can only do so much if your voters get ticked off enough.

[Nevernose]

9. That would be his only rational action yet

I mean, I sure as shit wouldn't pay my spokesman to hide in the fucking bushes. Would anyone? If anyone reading this literally hid in the bushes outside your workplace rather than do the sole function of your job -- talking to reporters -- how fast would you be fired?

Of course, with all the other firings, Trump can't even fire the one guy who might deserve it, not without looking shady as hell.

[tavalon]

10. Wow, that makes Spicy the luckiest guy alive

You don't usually get out of the mob that easily. Or that alive.

[Grammy23]

12. Who says Spicey made it out alive?

Has anyone seen him today? They said he was fulfilling guard duty but I saw no video of him. Maybe he is already sleeping with the fishes. 😳 Things are starting to get really tough for tRump so I put nothing past him. Things are that desperate right now. 😜 He would do almost anything to make this whole Russia thing go away.

[tavalon]

13. Very good point!

[LovingA2andMI]

14. Good Point....

Indeed.

[BainsBane]

15. I hope Spicey tells all

He's got to know quite a bit.

[bdjhawk]

16. If Trompe is going to do it,

he will probably do before Saturday so he screws up Saturday Night Live. The clip of Melissa McCarthy as Spicy released in anticipation of her hosting Saturday is pretty funny! And you know having a WOMAN (eew...women are yucky) imitate his male press secretary just kills him!

[DAMANgoldberg]

21. If I'm Sean Spicer...

at this point in the game, if I wasn't fired before Saturday, saunter onto the SNL set during Melissa McCathy's impression of you. Twitter will blow up and he will definitely be fired, possibly during the show itself. I would seriously Mark out for that.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

17. Sarah Huckabee was as bad or worse. Will tRump pick her? . . . nt

[OnDoutside]

23. Yes, because she is a forceful Natural Born Liar. It's hard to counter reptilians like her. There is

no morality, no second guessing. Daddy's girl.

[Skidmore]

24. Would be a choice he would like

because she's not too bright and willing to spout inane lies on a loop.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

18. Autocrats value loyalty above all else but will drop people in an instant. . . . nt

[Blue_Roses]

19. WTF?

..." he feels his press team poorly served him..."


Good grief...so now he thinks he's Don Corleone...

This administration is giving me stomach ulcer...

[bearssoapbox]

20. That picture is a good depiction of 'Evil Incarnate'.

Not to mention the creepy factor.



A few more from the recent past. Definitely not a complete list.

[rainbow4321]

25. Someone on Twitter asked if Trump could do it while Spicer is doing his Naval obligations

Obviously, I'm not familiar with the rules the person tweeted about but they said someone cannot be fired while they are fulfilling their military duties and absent from their job? Not that drumf would care about that but if there are any grown ups involved they may delay the firing until the day he is supposed to return to "work".
Didn't someone say that Spicer was doing 2 roles, one being the daily briefings, etc... I can see them saying that he is not being fired..just being relieved of one of those jobs and he will be shuffled off to being behind the scenes.

Let's face it..we knew when he did the very first press briefing (defending the size of the inaugural crowd) that he would be toast soon.

[get the red out]

26. Spicer

The least of his problems, fire him for the media to divert onto that.

[underpants]

27. They did serve him badly but its par for the course

You can polish it but it's still a turd.

[lindysalsagal]

28. Awwwww....It's no fun without Spicey!!!

I've posted it from election night: This will be the Star Trek Episode where staff keep disappearing from the ship, leaving Beverly Cursher (the doctor) in charge of the ship, alone, and her name will be Donald.

[WePurrsevere]

30. It's NEVER Narcissistic Tantrump's fault. It's ALWAYS someone else so...

It wouldn't surprise me if Sean drew the short twig this time. If I were him at this point I'd steal Trump's thunder and quit before he could fire me.

[DeminPennswoods]

31. Doubt Spicer will mind

He'll probably have a non-stop smile once he's out and will land a nice "analyst" gig at one of the cable news networks, unless of course he has to sign a non-disclosure agreement.
