Bye bye - Kayleigh McEnany Discussion

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

As part of Team Trump, I have no time for her, but she was the sharpest press secretary of the bunch.

She always showed up prepared with stats, quotes and great quips, and had no problem swatting down the many journalists who thought they could best her.

Exactly. People like to cut this young lady down, simply because she’s Republican (and, because she’s usually the smartest person in the room)....but she did her job, extremely well, and when those vultures in the press room tried to gang-up on her and bully her, she could push back and make them look foolish.

She used to be a talking head on CNN 5 years ago when Trump was campaigning...but they stopped having her on, because even at 4 against 1, she still mopped the floor with everyone trying to gang-up on her with their biased agenda. Effing weasels.

There’s an old saying: “How could you possibly be under 30 and a Republican. How can you possibly be over 30 and a Democrat?”

I could have mentioned her composure as well. Spicer and Sanders were always testy and combative.

I never saw McEnany lose her cool or get snippy. And her periodic mic drops made me laugh.

were we watching the same mcEnany? she was a whiny snappy crybaby

Yeah really. Like we're supposed to miss how "intelligently" she waved those pointless pieces of paper around.

they have to latch on and mythologize some aspect of trumps failed joke of an administration

There's a quote attributed to Winston Churchill:

"Any man under thirty who is not a liberal has no heart, and any man over thirty who is not a conservative has no brains."

Whether Churchill actually said it, or it was someone else, it is a perfect piece of wisdom.

She was no worse when it came to spin than the Obama press secretaries. But way better looking.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

she was awful. thankfully she is gone now and has become practically unemployable. I mean maybe she lands on Newsmax, im sure she would feel right at home with those propagandists.

“practically unemployable”

The woman was unshakable while being ganged up on by the press corps on live television, while defending a president who many times the facts were obviously against. To say she is practically unemployable is quite a ridiculous statement.

She's famous for blatantly lying on another liar's behalf to cover up for their lies. She's the face of dishonesty and corruption now. The only reason she'll be employed outside of the Magatard bubble is because she's famous, or infamous. Not because she was "unshakable" or any of that crap.

reply

[–] Mrmojo4700 (20441) 3 years ago

She would make an amazing attorney. I don’t think anyone could deny that.

reply

[–] liscarkat (16530) 3 years ago

She did not lie. She said things that were not aligned with the leftist agenda. There's a difference.

reply

[–] Ripkens25 (1901) 3 years ago

I agree with this, liscarkat.

I'm an Independent, and really don't have a bias to one "side" or the other.
However, I do think it's a weak crutch to just parrot: "lie, liar, lies..." constantly without anything substantive or specific to back it up.

I get it, Liberals HATE Kayleigh M. If I were a Liberal, I probably would, too.

She was usually the smartest person in a room full of Democrats with an agenda, and lots of arrows...

reply

[–] RogueDemonHunter (2645) 3 years ago

Yup. Bang on. She constantly impressed me with her sharpness in responding to dumb questions/statements. How she would just fire back a reply and then in a few seconds find the exact source in her file to back up what she said. Especially amusing quoting back moronic statements the "journalists" had made made prior contradicting themselves or being hypocritical.

She will have no worry about finding future employment.

It's difficult to take the left seriously when if you disagree with whatever BS they're spouting, you're instantly called a nazi or a fascist. Especially ironic now with how Biden and his team have been acting.

reply

[–] Martoto (4162) 3 years ago

She's not going to give you a lap dance. Stop trying to flatter her with inane meaningless pleasantries.

reply

[–] RogueDemonHunter (2645) 3 years ago

Wow. Are you really incapable of complimenting someone without expecting something in return? You pathetic simp.

reply

[–] Martoto (4162) 3 years ago

You're an independent what?

"she's the smartest person in a room full of Democrats.."

This is trite mediacentric bulllshit.

reply

[–] Ripkens25 (1901) 3 years ago

Spoken from the perspective.......of a Democrat.
No problem with that. Just....own it.

[–] VoiceofReason (503) 3 years ago

"im an indépendant" aka a conservative who votes for conservative dems sometimes because hes mad the republicans arent conservative enough. I hear it all the time

reply

[–] Martoto (4162) 3 years ago

Yeah. "I'm an independent" is something people with no conviction say to try and get people to take them seriously.

reply

[–] chrisjdel (2714) 3 years ago

That tactic seems to have been added to the right wing shill playbook. They say they're independent, then proceed to ruin it by being so far to the right it makes Tucker Carlson sound progressive.

reply

[–] VoiceofReason (503) 3 years ago

Ive never talked to (not saying they dont exist) an independent progressive or far left winger. it seems to be exclusively conservatives wh just use it to give off the guise of being above the fray, reasonable and non bias. When in fact they are just libertarians mad at the republicans for not going further

[–] triplea (3577) 3 years ago

Lol like you would know anything about employment 🤣.

[–] chrisjdel (2714) 3 years ago

I definitely won't miss Press Corps Barbie. Latest in the chain of lying sycophants who would tell us the sky is orange, and there are 37 hours in a day, if Donald Trump said so. With fortune on her side maybe she'll end up being hired by Faux News, or OANN, and she can continue her career of spinning bullshit on TV. Otherwise she's going to find it awfully hard to land a job after this. As will most officials from the Trump administration. Although if all else fails, she'll probably do better on Dancing With the Stars than Sean Spicer. 😳

[–] Ripkens25 (1901) 3 years ago

Again.....just....own....it.

No one is objective anymore.

Pussies.

[–] chrisjdel (2714) 3 years ago

Trump lied nonstop. He could barely put a sentence together without including at least one lie. And if he contradicted his lie on a subject with a different lie in the same rambling press conference, he'd pretend he never said the other thing, and when a reporter offered to play back the video he would insult them and the outlet they worked for, then abruptly move on. Ducking the fact that he'd just been busted not keeping his BS straight.

This "no truth exists, only bias" crap is right wing smoke blowing. There is no reality that doesn't change moment to moment. There are no rules that don't constantly shift. We're on a neverending acid trip folks! Who knows what's real?

Yes, there's an objective truth. There's a right and a wrong answer. Everything is not perspective. Donald Trump and his toadies lied pathologically. Not even smart lies - verifiable, provable ones.
