And they're not talking about Spicer - it's about Sessions.

Great footage. Grin
The Spicerburg.

Except he's full of methane instead of hydrogen.

That's Alex jones who runs infowars. Spicey must know he's fucked up when Alex fucking Jones is calling him out on his poor grasp of history and misrepresentation of facts Shock

Apparently, the Chinese are very very upset over the forcible 'deplaning'.

Birdsbeesandtrees · 11/04/2017 21:49

Deplaning ?

cozietoesie · 11/04/2017 21:51

My apologies. I think that the airline referred to it as an 'involuntary de-boarding'. Forgive my loose language.

Orlantina · 11/04/2017 21:52

I don't know about other people but if I'm asked a difficult question, I need time to think about my answer.

During the press conference, he didn't pause when he gave his clarification near the end. That was a question that needed careful reflection because he should have realised how it would have come across.

OnTheDarkSideOfTheSpoon · 11/04/2017 21:52

THe united airlines fiasco with the removal of the passenger. There's a petition and a call for a boycott!

Birdsbeesandtrees · 11/04/2017 21:54

Aha I see !

cozietoesie · 11/04/2017 21:54

The 'passenger' was apparently Chinese - and in a general situation where United are trying to cozy up to that market even more.

Oops.
