Oh that's good. Now we have "alternative sarcasm". :mrgreen:
 
For the sake of the Republic, I'm going to have to assume that was retweeted ironically. There's enough embarrassment already without the Press Secretary agreeing with a parody paper that is making fun of him.

I'm sure that will be the alt-fact for this instance.

No irony in this, unless you want to say that he also accidentally retweeted 2 of his passwords last week in an act of irony. The man is an idiot.

Just a question, because "nailed it, period." seems overly sarcastic to me. Not something I would say as a real response

Progressives think the have that market cornered. So from their POV, no.

Is that why it says "You nailed it. Period! /sarcasm"... oh, wait.

Why on Earth would a man under the microscope daily tweet a sarcastic comment that would very easily be interpreted as serious?
 
I don't want to make a determination about the intelligence of someone I only just heard about for the first time two weeks ago, but this is a guy who tweeted his password.

Twice.
 
Spicer is the new Ron Ziegler without the Disneyland experience to humanize him. .

Yes, this clown retweeted a message that was actually flaming him. Sometimes comedy just writes itself. What a buffoon. LMAO!!

It doesn't seem too out of realm that a genius can make just such oops mistakes, right? I mean because of course john Podesta is a genius right....er, left? Aide's Typo Allowed Hackers To Access John Podesta's Email | The Daily Caller

Besides which, according to snopes we have no idea if Spicer actually outed his passwords... or not. Did Sean Spicer Tweet Out His Password? : snopes.com

Fake news anybody? Anybody at all?

FYI, the Republic expired many years ago, before Spicer had the job, and just as Benjamin Franklin rather predicted.

You're doing the right thing--always assume that any authority figure is telling you the truth, and has your best interests at heart. :mrgreen:

Per your link, is it your position that the tweets were really the launch codes or a cry for help?

No, they don't. They mess up. You guys will just excuse ANYTHING they do wrong. Period.

Of course they do and y'all take it hook, line and sinker every...single...time. :lamo
 
Another example of Trump's noted reputation of hiring "the really best people".
What idiot would allow this stuttering, quasi-literate, lying prick to represent his administration?

No, you guys are the ones that look foolish defending them. Any mistake and you guys just go "Oh they were just joking". Riiiiiiiight. Keep telling yourself that, Trumptards might even believe it after long enough.

Truthfully?

Truthfully I think all this silly crap put out by the media does the media, nor the liberal side in general, much good. And yes, this may be a cry for help from a group so disoriented since the mirage of long lasting hope and change evaporated with the ding! ding! ding! closing bell of the election.

Time to quit daydreaming and get back to the work of an actually functioning republic.

You posted a link to Snopes, which made me think, "Uh oh, was that tweet thing false? Did I get tricked?" Only that didn't happen. It was just a link to a report of the incident with people joking that Spicer's tweets were a cry for help or the nuclear launch codes. Is that what you think the tweets were?

No wonder you folks on that side get most everything wrong. It was only a short one page article and you could not even decipher the English therein, eh? Wow. Answers orders of magnitude of questions about why logical debate so many times does not work here.
 
In any case, and speaking of "a cry for help," the most meaningful thing Spicer ever did or said was when he was trying to defend Trump's statements to the press corp over his statement that 3-5 million people voted illegally. During the session, Spicer said, "Guys...this is what President Trump believes."

And that, everybody, was the cry for help.

He was saying, "Look, everybody, Trump isn't lying, he's not trying to fool you. He really, really believes these thing. He's ill. He needs psychological help. What do you think I'm going to do? Say 'Hey Mr. Trump, the press just wanted to let you know that your claims are wrong' and he'll stop repeating them? He believes the stuff he's saying. We're all in great, great danger, everybody! RUN FOR THE HILLS!!"
