"Chairman Nadler. I'm sorry, Ms. Hicks."
"I'm preoccu pie d eyed.."

Well, after wasting taxpayer money and Hope Hicks' time on Wednesday, the House Judiciary Committee has released the full transcript of Trump's former communications director's testimony. It largely revealed absolutely nothing new, but it also confirmed what we all already knew -- New York Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler is an absolute jerk.
In Michael Wolff's now discredited book, 'Fire and Fury,' the author claims that Hicks, one of President Trump's closest allies and a key player in the 2016 campaign, had an on-and-off relationship with Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski who happens to be married.
The supposed affair was never confirmed, but that did not stop Rep. Nadler, while using your tax dollars, to "mistakenly" refer to Ms. Hicks several times as 'Ms. Lewandowski' during the closed-door hearing. Nadler, by the way, is the chairman of this committee and is supposed to be a leader for his colleagues.
On page 12 of the transcript released, Rep. Nadler first called Ms. Hicks the wrong name.
Chairman Nadler. No, sir. Are you asserting any privileges in declining to answer the question?
Mr. Purpura. We are not, Mr. Chairman.
Chairman Nadler. Ms. Lewandowski?
Ms. Hicks. As a former senior adviser to the President, I'm 12 following the instructions from the White House.
Then, on page 20, Rep. Nadler did it again.
Chairman Nadler. Ms. Lewandowski -- sorry -- Ms. Hicks, read the next two sentences also if you have it.
Ms. Hicks. Sure. The President directed that Sessions should give a speech publicly announcing -- the dictated message went on to state.
Finally Hicks, who was supposed to be there to answer questions relating to the Russian investigation, defended herself and corrected Rep. Nadler. On page 25, this interaction happened:
Chairman Nadler. Yeah. Ms. Lewandowski, I think, in reading this --
Ms. Hicks. My name is Ms. Hicks.
Chairman Nadler. I'm sorry, Ms. Hicks. I'm preoccupied.
So there are three things going on here. The first is that Nadler genuinely thought her last name was Lewandowski, in which case he should not be asking questions if he does not even know who he is speaking with. The second is that he was not paying attention and needs assistance focusing. Or the third, and the most likely reason, is that he was simply trying to throw a few jabs to knock Hicks off her game by hinting at her alleged affair. If I were a betting man, I'd take the third option in this scenario which makes Rep. Nadler a total jackwagon.
You mean Mr. Creosote didn’t explode yet? Insulting p**ck
Nadler probably had a mini-stoke a few weeks back when he was hospitalized. Screwed up his memory even more than it was.
And if I was a Republican woman candidate running against a Democrat man for office I’d start putting that in my ads.
"Chairman Nadler. I'm sorry, Ms. Hicks."
"I'm preoccu pie d eyed.."
I read yesterday that some of the rats were trying to take secret pics of her with their phones. They were caught in the corridor ogling them.
Ms Hicks should never have responded when called a incorrect name.
Man that is the perfect pic for this topic.
You did good Master Luke.
Preoccupied playing pocket pool again, no doubt.
How is that a big story? Big in the sense that the NYT was feeding gossip to the FBI? Or big because the FBI looked into the gossip and found nothing? Please clarify your insights here.
Hope Hicks: ummm Representative Creosote, you look like you are about to have a severe case of throwing up, and will explode. Pardon me while I duck under the desk. I don’t want to be a victim of collateral damage.
Wow! He gained back all the weight he lost!
Republicans should demand that Nadler resign from Congress.
From the image I saw the other day, it looks like Nadless is slowly sinking into his pants.
If she ever gets called up again by Nadler, she could “mistakenly” call him “Fat Bastard” (from Austin Powers).
She should have asked him if he “would like a thin mint”...
Representative Gerald Harkonnen...
Tacos are on Tuesday!
Like endless waves of sewage hitting the beach .
Ms. Hicks. My name is Ms. Hicks.
Chairman Nadler. I'm sorry, Ms. Hicks. I'm preoccupied.
Exactly where were your hands at that moment Jerry? Thinking about what you could never have?
