[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm really conflicted about this. There seem to be two possible explanations for this press conference, which I found extremely disturbing: 1. Trump has the maturity of a petulant three year old and forced Spicer to go out there and make an ass out of himself on Trump's behalf, and 2. This was a deliberate attempt to obfuscate the truth with the intent of convincing the public that the mainstream media are lying and there really is no truth (your hypothesis). Maybe it's both. Before yesterday's inauguration speech (clearly written by or at least heavily influenced by Bannon), I would have thought that Trump was just being a touchy narcissist. But now I have to wonder if Trump is Bannon's useful idiot in a much longer term game. [b]It was really disheartening watching the evening news shows debating the validity of Trump's and Spicer's claims - not trying to figure out the long term strategy for making those claims in the first place.[/b] This is a truly scary time in our history.[/quote] Well, CNN was just discussing the implication of these flat out lies while not taking the bait to debate the claim itself. They've got some right-leaning commentator (head of Concerned Women of America or some such) who is chastising everyone else saying the only reason they care is because Trump is insulting the press. Then she's arguing that she doesn't really know what the numbers of people on the Mall were, nor does she care. It's completely insane that a person intelligent enough to speak in coherent sentences could say that with a straight face. Even their other two right-leaning commentators, including one who defended Trump's remarks about Curiel, were criticizing Spicer on this.[/quote]
