White House spin reaches new level of stupid

The White House press briefings continue to be a cloud of misinformation and distraction as Fox News’ Steve Doocy and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt ran some interference on Monday for President Donald Trump and his dismal first 100 days.

As Trump publicly melted down over his abysmal approval ratings, Leavitt and Doocy decided to spin Trump’s supposed influence over last week’s National Football League draft. On Friday, Trump attacked NFL owners in a Truth Social post for failing to draft Shedeur Sanders, the college quarterback and son of Hall of Fame football player Deion Sanders, in the first round.

Trump’s Friday rant was filled with racist 1980s buzzwords about Sanders, who is Black, as being “streetwise” and having “PHENOMENAL GENES.”



“After the President's Truth Social post, the Browns finally took Shedeur Sanders. Does the president think he deserves credit for Sanders getting picked?” Doocy asked Leavitt.
