We've known about Wallace for a long time, but here is the lowdown on Roberts:

During the briefing, Roberts demanded “a definitive and declarative statement, without ambiguity or deflection, as the person who speaks for the president, does the president denounce white supremacism, and groups that espouse it, in all their forms?”

So McEnany fires off all these examples of the president doing exactly that, including yesterday when Trump told Roberts’ own reporter-wife, “In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry, and white supremacy.”

Nevertheless, on and on it went like this, with Roberts denying the White House and Trump have denounced white supremacy. It was like a Monty Python sketch.

And then, because he hadn’t told enough lies in the briefing room, Fox News brought him on the air to crybaby about how people shouldn’t get mad at him for lying.

Roberts had a total crybully meltdown.

I wonder if this is the type of quote they were looking for:

Trump: “...we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. It has no place in America.”

Or

“And you had people — and I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists — because they should be condemned totally. But you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and white nationalists.”

Because those are two direct quotes from the Charlottesville press conference.

I am not sure how much more clear you want him to be.
