Pompeo to do ‘full Ginsburg’ as Trump seeks to use Sunday shows to capitalize on Soleimani killing

Play Video Secretary of State Mike Pompeo plans to appear on all of the major Sunday morning television shows as he continues to defend President Trump's decision to kill Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia leader Mahdi al Muhandis.

"Pompeo scheduled to be on six (6) Sunday morning TV shows tomorrow as he continues to defend Trump’s decision to take out Iran’s Souleimani," tweeted Bloomberg reporter Jennifer Jacobs.

Speaking with Fox News's Sean Hannity, Pompeo, 56, suggested that European nations have not been as "helpful" as the State Department would like.

“I spent the last day and a half, two days, talking to partners in the region, sharing with them what we were doing, why we were doing it, seeking their assistance, they’ve all been fantastic," said Pompeo. "Frankly, the Europeans haven’t been as helpful as I wish that they could be."

Why in the world would killing a known terrorist need defending?

Why? Because we live in a Bizzaro world.

Damn good question. But given that the previous administration was basically a puppet state of Iran and, further, that our mass media was basically a puppet of the previous administration, I think you know the answer.

William Ginsburg, Monica Lewinski's lawyer.

Rush Limbaugh coined the term "full Ginsburg" when he went on all the Sunday shows on the same day to defend Monica Lewinski's against the Clintons.

It’s a Trump kill, not Obama, not Hillary, not Kerry.

Hillary Clinton referring to Gadhafi. “We came, we saw, he died”

No way! President Trump should not give the Sunday Morning Hate America Crowd one minute of his time or any member of his cabinet.

Anything said by the Presidents staff will be re-cut to use against him.

It doesn’t - unless the propaganda machine decides that’s how they want to play it because it was a combination “murder/assassination”....which is their way of trying to make a good thing look bad.
