Conway to Chuck Todd: ‘We’re Going to Have to Rethink Our Relationship Here
Breitbart ^ | 01/22/17 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/22/2017 8:13:09 AM PST by Enlightened1

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” during a very contentious interview, President Donald Trump aide Kellyanne Conway told host Chuck Todd, “We’re going to have to rethink our relationship here,” if he continued to ask why press secretary Sean Spicer told a “falsehood,” about Trump’s inaugural crowd size.

Todd asked, “I’m curious why president trump chose yesterday to send out his press secretary to essentially litigate a provable falsehood when it comes to a small and petty thing like inaugural crowd size. my question to you is why do that.?

After her answer Todd again said, “You did not answer the question. Why did the president send out his press secretary who is not just the spokesperson for Donald Trump, he is also the spokesperson for all of America at times. He speaks for all of the country at times, why put him out there for the very first time in front of that podium to utter a provable falsehood? It’s a small thing, but the first time he confronts the public it’s a falsehood.”

Conway said “Chuck, if we’re going to keep referring to our press secretary in those types of terms, I think we are going to have to rethink our relationship here. I want a great open relationship with our press.”

You understand the absurdity of this. WHO THE HELL CARES WHO HAD THE BIGGER CROW SIZE! And for Todd to try to twist this to the level of a falsehood is jaw dropping stupid. Conway should tell him as much and move on.

If it was important enough for cnn to use a false picture to make a false impression about the inaugural, then it should be equally important to tell the public that it was a lie.

I was walking thru the cafeteria at work on Friday morning, during my break about 10:30, and saw the events on TV. Whatever network it was on showed that picture of the blank spaces along the mall, but the anchor mentioned that it would be filling in as people made it through the tight security, as I saw in the pictures from the Inauguration later that day.

CNN was still using that same shot later in the day, claiming the Inauguration was not well attended, for the sole purpose of continuing to try to de-legtimize President Trump. Libs friends of mine on FB have posted it several times, as a nya-nya, but I've pointed out CNN's lie. The truth won't matter to them, of course.

Make the press corps move outside under an umbrella and use port-a-pottys.

Make the fifth-column leftist media bring their own pooper-scoopers. There's no reason to allow them to leave their crap in the White House.

Does the press get an IRS-1099 for the refreshments served?

I’m glad you did not capitalize his name because he lower-cased the President’s name in the article.
