Donald Trump has been pulling out all the stops to overturn the election results after President-elect Joe Biden defeated him. The president even summoned Michigan’s Republican legislative leaders to the White House for a meeting Friday in what one newspaper rightfully described it as an attempted coup. At this point, it’s just embarrassing, but it’s also dangerous as the narcissistic president shreds the very fabric of our democracy. Trump has tried recounts and unsuccessful legal maneuvers, all without providing a shred of evidence to prove that widespread voter fraud exists (It does not exist). Trump is clinging to power, probably to stay in office rather than face the consequences of his crimes.
So, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany came to the podium but only answered a few questions. And the most important question was presented by Playboy magazine’s Brian Karem, who asked point-blank, “When will you admit you lost?” And that happened just before she shot a snide remark at CNN’s Kaitlan Collins.
Cat got your tongue, Kayleigh?

Karem went on to ask McEnany is she understands “the definition of sedition?”
NOW: question: “Do you understand what the definition of sedition is?” Also followed it with another question about admitting that they lost. Response… pic.twitter.com/b2hQtTBlH1

Someone had to ask that question; after all, Trump is now an unwanted houseguest in the White House. Of course, McEnany tried to demean Kaitlan Collins when she asked a question.

The question was a simple one:
Appearing in her professional capacity, @PressSec takes only a handful of questions in her first briefing since Oct. 1. Asked why can’t call on all reporters — given it’s been so long and there are not many of us due to social distancing — she called me “an activist.”

And this:
WH press secretary falsely says Trump’s election in 2016 was never accepted. Clinton gave a concession speech the morning after the election, Obama met with Trump in the Oval Office on Nov. 10, 2016. Oh, and Trump has literally been the president for the past four years.

As Collins told McEnany, you’re “not going your job.” A White House press secretary is supposed to take questions from reporters. It’s literally her job. And a president that lost an election should be packing his shit up to move in January instead of falsely tweeting that he won. But here we are — what a time to be alive.
