Did I hear correctly on the CBS Morning News that Sean Spicer is reported to have said:
"Trump did not give 'the finger' to the Italian Prime Minister"?

That (he claims) it is a false news story.

1. Get thee to the greatest

for visibility. They lie non-stop

2. Trump is such a juvenile ass. He doesn't belong at the table

with world leaders.

[Angry Dragon]

3. I believe Spicey Jelly Bean

Trump thought he was asked what his IQ was

5. If he did give the finger, it's the tiniest, shortest, most insignificant middle finger ever given!

[RainCaster]

6. Was he showing the length of his yuge boyhood?

Or was he telling us about his single digit IQ?

[TexasProgresive]

8. Or the number of his human parents?

7. I have never seen an adult hold his hand in that position without realizing

how the gesture would be interpreted.

9. And the stupid grin afterward n/t

[Sinistrous]

11. That grin really confirmed what he meant by that gesture.

10. But, it's a tiny middle finger.

Just like his tiny, tiny hands. I guess it was hard for Spicey to see it?

12. Then what is it, Spicey?

A Vienna sausage he found in his jacket pocket and was about to eat?
