Most previous press secretaries have multiple-hour briefs on what is going on so they can at least coherently lie through their teeth about things. I feel like Sean Spicer just wakes up from a horrible hangover, pounds a pot of coffee and strolls into the office like, 3 minutes before he has to do these things

He can't even give non-answers right because he does so little prep for this stuff

It's crazy at this point because he is so consistently incomprehensible and strings together words and sentences that don't even make any sense, I've covered press conferences from loving rural school districts and small townships that have been more competent than this

waking up, puking, and then checking the president's tweets (not necessarily in that order) are habits three through five of successful people

part of the reason he's so upset during these is that he has to poo poo crazy bad.

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

basically two points:

1.) this entire administration is completely threadbare and only recently got a communications director, there's probably not enough people to actually get him on top of everything anyways

2.) he's insanely bad at his job

Consider- the people preparing his briefings are likely equally incompetent (and understaffed)

you know how there's a theme where turmp has been hiring people for secretary positions based on how confrontational they'll be with the departments they'll head and be bad for them

i genuinely wonder if they took the same approach with spicy

Spicy works for Donald Trump, who has never prepared in advance for goddamn anything. Remember the debates?

The whole admin believes in "fake it 'til you make it" as their governing policy.
