Every man or woman — even White House press secretaries — would have their limits on the dissembling, confusion and outright lies with which he or she must contend.
Isn’t that right, Sean Spicer.
The current White House flack came to the podium today and declared that the House of Representatives would vote tonight on the American Health Care Act.
Then word came out that, nope, ain’t gonna happen — tonight! It’s been delayed. House Republicans are still trying to gather up enough votes to send Trump/Ryancare to the Senate, where it faces an even less friendly pool of politicians.
Chaos, anyone?
It’s fair to wonder out loud about Sean Spicer, a man for whom I’m beginning to develop a certain level of sympathy. How much more of this can he take? How much longer will he be able to defend a president’s policies and the seat-of-the-pants process that produces them?
I don’t know much about Spicer, other than he served as Republican National Committee press secretary before joining the White House flackery machine.
Still, is this guy reaching his limit?
