Lol. I’m impressed that she knew that was coming.

It’s a pretty good visual to have her provide that response and try to keep her smile from getting too big as she dismissed them to a bunch of follow-up clamor.

Oooo, weee, that question was a plant.

No one is that prepared for a question like that without getting it ahead of time.
So looks like she kinda pulled a you from an earlier thread. "Oh, yeah, so, I was wrong, but but but... media!"
And wait a minute... I thought y'all have been arguing this whole time that coronavirus was just media hype?

No one has said it’s just media hype. You are a dolt. The worst.

If it was "a plant", who asked it?

Hard to imagine anyone in that press briefing room is asking questions that the administration wants them to ask. The hatred is palpable.

I can’t stomach John Oliver, but if it was OAN news

Then it probably was a plant.

Hard to believe we have a president that promotes OAN and thinks it is real news. Kind of nuts.

I watched the entire presser.

She handled every question in a manner that led me to believe all were scripted. I haven't seen anyone handle the her. She is masterful and quite entertaining. She can dodge a question as well as any seasoned politician and tell the questioner to go eff himself and he will thank her.
Of course that last comment is an exaggeration but I strongly recommend you watch the entire video. One question was about death rates in America and she rattled off half a dozen western nation and their death rates twice or more per 1 mil people than America. When she did that I wondered if she wasn't being given the questions the day before and had a team working on responses for her.

It came from OAN.

OAN is a proven Trump PR organization and is repeatedly called upon for softball questions so he and his people can drive their points home.
It was a plant. She immediately rattled off headlines she had written down (she looked down to read them). The whole thing was scripted.
But I'll at least concede she's far better than that troll Sarah Huckabee Sanders. Seriously, how many billy goats gruff has she caught yet under the bridge during her retirement?

I feel confident you are correct. Not because

she referred to notes...that would just indicate to me that she might be politically savvy enough to know the question might come up. But to your point, OAN just isn’t going to ask such a blatant “gotcha” question against the Trump administration unless it’s coordinated.

All she did was read headlines which promoted the spread of this epidemic. Why did those media outlets take those positions back then? Because everything Trump does is wrong. EVERYTHING, including shutting down travel from the country where the virus was released.
I get politics but this goes to the physical and economic health of our people. Blacks, whites, injuns, gays, straights and all across every social and economic class. Those media entities promoted a deadly infection which has killed over 70 thousand people.
All that lady did was point that out to the American people. It wasn't a spin job, it was just the truth.

You're saying she had those headlines already printed and ready to go simply because she anticipated that exact question from extremely pro-Trump OAN? That it wasn't set up?
You in the market for some beachfront property, 88?

The question was about her statement
May 7, 2020, 3:29 PM
[ in reply to Re: It came from OAN. ] |
|
specifically saying “We will not see diseases like the coronavirus come here. And isn’t it refreshing when contrasting it with the awful presidency of President Obama?”
Her answer was to "whatabout" and then run away because she knew the answer was embarrassing for her and for Trump. Her only savvy play was to throw red meat to Trump's cultists which clearly worked because here you are trying to defend her. It was embarrassing because of how transparent it was and to any rational person her non-answer was clearly indicative of her guilt. It's the same way a child tries to defend themselves when they know they made a mistake.
Frankly, I'm tired of having children in charge of our Government.

I thought the question was asked by Jeff Mason from Reuters? No?

And CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC are all proven anti-Trump broadcasts, so what’s your point. Sounds to me like the foreign-owned media is lopsided in democrats favor.

Yeah, the idiots who published all that fake news were probably embarrassed.
