Trump White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany — now a Fox News talking head — made a jaw-dropping claim on ‘Outnumbered’ to suggest there wasn’t a “crisis after crisis” when the twice-impeached one-term president was in the White House. I’m old enough to remember that while Donald Trump was at the helm, Americans were suffering from multiple crises at the same time. And instead of calming the public during each crisis, Trump acted like an arsonist who lit a flame, then blamed everyone else that got burned from the fire he ignited.
“We are eight months into a Biden presidency … wrap your head around that. We still have three years and four months left,” McEnany said on Tuesday during a segment that discussed the withdrawal from Afghanistan and the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
“Look, when President Trump was president, you didn’t see crisis after crisis. You just didn’t see it,” she added.

We almost went to war with Iran… He abandoned our Kurdish allies… He assassinated an Iranian general… He threatened Iran with war crimes… He created a secret police who kidnapped protesters into unmarked vans… He used tear gas on protesters for a photo op… “Kungflu”..

As Rod Serling famously said:
“Beyond it is another dimension – a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into the Twilight Zone.”

You’re right Kayleigh,
It was just a 4 year train wreck followed by a coup attempt. https://t.co/i9o4o0SmPo

She’s kinda right in the sense that it was more like one giant, crushing, all-encompassing crisis where it was impossible to tell where one ended and the next one began. https://t.co/gDL7LYgJku

The former guy is still creating a crisis by refusing to concede the race he lost to President Joe Biden in the electoral and popular vote over nine months ago. Trump would prefer violence over admitting that he was defeated.
