The Trump Administration (just Trump) Thread

She baked a pie from a recipe, and uploaded the recipe picture of the pie to illustrate what she'd baked. For a member of the White House press corps - as opposed to a member of the public who might be feeling a bit snarky - to deem that worthy of making a public statement is a joke.

Do you know a single individual who makes something, and then shares a photo of what they used as the basis of their creation rather than the product they made?

That's the joke. And it's going over your head.

I'm getting a kick reading this exchange on my laptop.

Gee, we would know the answer if it actually happened. Only one person was dumb enough to take a stock photo and put it out as something they made.

how absurdly dumb is it that people are even talking about this? Why does anyone even care?

If only there were an instance of a prominent conservative using Twitter to lob petty insults. But alas! They always exercise the BEST judgement when using Twitter to make public statements.

Michelle had a habit of lying every day right?

Fact Check: First Lady's False Fairy Tale of Struggle

First Lady Michelle Obama’s pitch to voters last night relied on the premise that she and her husband understand what it is to struggle to make ends meet. She spoke movingly about their early years–about how a young Barack Obama drove a car that was “rusted out” and found his furniture “in a dumpster,” how they both came from families that had to “scrape by.” Her fairy tale–however well-delivered–was one great, big, colorful lie.

Both Michelle Robinson and Barack Obama began their adult lives with a leg up on the rest of America. They attended elite schools: Michelle went to Whitney Young, the public magnet school for Chicago’s upper class, while Barack attended Punahou, the private prep school for the top stratum of Hawaiian society. They were accepted to Ivy League schools despite undistinguished credentials, and both attended Harvard Law School.

“Believe it or not, when we were first married, our combined monthly student loan bills were actually higher than our mortgage,” Michelle said. That sounds like a raw deal–but in fact reflects their fortunate circumstances. They had both just graduated from a very expensive law school, and their combined income from cushy law firm jobs dwarfed the repayments. Barack also soon enjoyed a second salary from the University of Chicago.

They had expensive tastes, reflected in the $277,500 two-bedroom condo they bought in 1993–a high price even by today’s standards. Several years later, they moved into their $1.65 million mansion in Hyde Park–with the help of fraudster Tony Rezko. Barack often told a story of hardship on the campaign trail in 2008 about having his credit card declined–once. The fact that he thought this counted as real hardship speaks volumes.

Where's the lie? Honest question; struggling to find it.

Not publicly. But neither does Sanders.

Why are you comparing the 2 and asking us to imagine something? What does a press secretary and a first lady have in common? Their gender?

What if Michelle did something stupid? No one would notice I guess. She is a protected class in this America.

Remember how dumb she was for not wearing a head covering in Saudi Arabia for instance?

Whataboutism has gotten so bad in here we have to think about if Michelle Obama made the same stupid mistake that stupidly made Sarah Huckabee Sanders look stupid.

How about this one? What about if Obama had said he can grab women by the pussy because he is so famous? Would he have been elected? What about if Obama didn't pay his bills? Would he been seen as such a savvy businessman?

That’s the thing. She made a twitter post about a pie that she may or may not have lied about making. Why would she bother? Seems like a bad idea.

Some of the posts are funny. All of them are pretty petty. But what a weird thing to do.

Michelle’s lie was wayyyyyyyyyyyy bigger and more ridiculous. It was about an entire lifestyle.

I almost forgot this was the thread I was done posting in because it had gotten less toxic for a bit.

People use links to recipes sometimes, which is all I can come up with here.

Where was the pic sourced from?

What is the purpose of comparing Michelle Obama to Sarah Huckabee Sanders? What do they have in common besides the fact that their women?

Obama made less than $20,000 as a community organizer and it said that he got $2,000 to buy a car. That's not a lot of money in Chicago even if it was 1988.

Nobody in the world really cares about the pie. Huckabee Sanders and Trump have purposefully made themselves into enemies of the press by attacking the Press repeatedly. The fact that April Ryan came back with this Petty thing is hilarious. we have Qtip crying about what if Michelle did it. It's a joke and people with a sense of humor laughed.
