Covfefe Tweet And How White House Panders To President | AM Joy

>>> THANKS TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AMERICA IS BACK.
>> THIS IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY SUCCESSFUL AND HISTORIC NINE-DAY
TRIP THE PRESIDENT TOOK. >> I'M THANKFUL FOR YOUR
FORTITUDE, YOUR COURAGE AND YOUR STEADFASTNESS AS YOU SERVE AND
LEAD OUR COUNTRY. >> OUR COMMANDER IN CHIEF, THE
PILLAR OF STRENGTH AND A TRUE ADVOCATE FOR AMERICA.
>> QUOTE, IN THE SHORT SPACE OF THREE DAYS, TRUMP CARRIED OUT A
SEMI REVOLUTION. >> WELL, YOU KNOW THERE HAS BEEN
A SEMI REVOLUTION OF SORTS SINCE TRUMP WALKED INTO THE WHITE
HOUSE, NO, NOT SUDDENLY THAT THERE ARE JOBS, JOBS, JOBS, AND
A GREAT WALL OR AMERICA IS GREAT AGAIN.
DID TRUMP EMBARRASS THE UNITED STATES DURING HIS SAUDI ORBS AND
NATO-SHOVING WORLD TOUR? NO, HIS TRIP WAS HISTORIC.
IS BACKING OUT OF PARIS CLIMATE ACCORD A DISASTROUS IDEA THAT
TRACKED AMERICAN GLOBAL SHIP.SH. NO WAY, TRUMP STRUCK A GREAT
BLOW IN PITTSBURGH. TRUMP DEMEANED HIS OWN STAFF AS
"THE WASHINGTON POST" SUGGESTED -- OF COURSE NOT.
IN THE WORDING OF THE WHITE HOUSE SPOKESPERSON, HE IS
AMAZING AND AN AMAZING ABILITY TO MAKE PEOPLE FEEL SPECIAL AND
ASPIRE TO BE MORE THAN THEY THOUGHT POSSIBLE.
ON ANY GIVEN TEAM, HIS LOYAL TEAM WILL DAWN THEIR
ROSE-COLORED CLASSES. AND THE DEAR LEADER DONALD TRUMP
IS THE BIGGEST MOST BROAD
SHOULDERED SAVIOR OF COVFEFE, A WORD HE TWEETED HIMSELF WITH HIS
GIANT FINGERS ARE. JOINING ME NOW, THANK YOU ALL
FOR BEING HERE. I HAVE TO START WITH THE COVFEFE
THING. IT'S RIDICULOUS, IT'S ANNOYING
THAT IT TOOK UP SO MUCH OF OUR MIND SPACE OVER THE LAST COUPLE
DAYS. I WANT TO GET YOUR TAKE ON THIS
AS A REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST. DONALD TRUMP WEIRDLY TYPES A
TYPO WITH COVFEFE. LOOKED LIKE HE TRAILED OFF AND
NEVER COMPLETED IT. WE ALL HAVE TWEETS THAT WE
MISSPELL. HE HAS FUN WITH IT AND SENDS A
TWEET WEDNESDAY MORNING AFTER THE FIRST TWEET WAS TAKEN DOWN
HE WRITES WHO CAN FIGURE OUT THE TRUE MEANING OF COVFEFE,
QUESTION MARK, QUESTION MARK, ENJOY.
EVEN HE THINKS IT'S RIDICULOUS. ITEM NUMBER ONE, REDDIT, TRUMP
SUPPORTERS ON REDDIT DECIDED TO GO ON AND DENOUNCE STUPID
LIBERALS, STUPID LIBS NOT KNOWING THAT COVFEFE IS ARABIC
FOR I WILL STAND UP. AND ALL OF THESE ARE SAYING THE
LIBERALS ARE TOO DUMB TO REALIZE HE TYPED ON PURPOSE AND HAS A
MEANING. "THE NEW YORK TIMES" ASKS AN
ACTUAL PROFESSOR OF ARABIC AT NYU WHETHER OR NOT COVFEFE IS
ARABIC FOR ANYTHING. HE MADE A A GOOD FAITH EXPERT T
SEE WHETHER THE MISPLACED TRANSLATION MAY HAVE COME FROM.
HE REPEATED THE WORD COVFEFE BEFORE FINALLY LAUGHING I'M
SORRY, COME ON, NO, IT'S NOT. THE LAST ITEM, THE SPOKESPERSON
FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, SEAN SPICER, IN HIS
OFFICIAL CAVITY AS A TAXPAYER PAID SPOKESPERSON FOR THE
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES RESPONDED TO THIS RIDICULOUSNESS
WITH THIS. >> DO YOU THINK PEOPLE SHOULD BE
CONCERNED THAT THE PRESIDENT POSTED SOMEWHAT OF AN INCOHERENT
TWEET LAST NIGHT AND THAT IT THEN STAYED UP UP FOR HOURS?
>> NO. >> WHY DID IT STAY UP SO LONG?
IS NO ONE WATCHING THIS? >> NO, I THINK THE PRESIDENT AND
A SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HE MEANT LIKE --
>> WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? >> LIKE?
KEVIN, ARE YOU IN THE SMALL GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT THE PRESIDENT MEANT? AND IS THAT NORMAL BEHAVIOR, AN
AMERICAN DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATION?
>> IT'S SILLINESS. PEOPLE SAY WELL, HE WAS ACTUALLY
USING THE ARABIC WORD. HE JUST CAME FROM THE ARAB WORLD
WHERE HE COULD HAVE USED IT AND HE DOESN'T USE IT.
I'VE NEVER KNOWN DONALD TRUMP TO SPEAK ARABIC IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR
FORM. WITH THE INFUSIVE FORMS THAT ALL
OF HIS AIDES ARE SAYING ON THE RECORD, THAT'S A SMOKE SCREEN.
HE'S LIKE AL BUNDY TALKING ABOUT THE FOUR TOUCHDOWNS HE SCORED
FOR POLK HIGH. HE CAN'T STOP RELIVING HIS ONE
GREAT ACHIEVEMENT. BUT WHEN YOU ACTUALLY STOP
TALKING TO THESE AIDES OFF CAMERA, THEY SAY THIS GUY --
THERE'S SOMETHING OFF THERE, HE'S DOING ALL OF THESE
MISTAKES. >> MICHELLE, LOOK, THERE'S A
NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY TYPE THAT NEEDS TO BE PRAISED THAT
NEEDS THE PRAISE TO BE EXTRA EFFUSIVE.
THIS IS THE GREATEST PRESIDENT IN HISTORY.
THE CROWDS WERE THE GREATEST. THERE'S A NEED FOR THAT?
AND THEN THERE ARE FOLLOWERS WHO DO IT.
WHY ARE SO MANY PEOPLE ON THE RIGHT WILLING TO DO IT?
>> WELL, I THINK IN THE CASE OF HOPE HICKS AND SEAN SPICER, THEY
REALIZED THEY HAVE ONE JOB, AND THEY WORK FOR ONE PERSON.
AND THEIR JOB BASICALLY IS IS T MAKE TRUMP HAPPY.
RIGHT NOW, HE'S VERY FRUSTRATED AND UPSET.
HIS PRESIDENCY IS BEING SLAMMED IN THE NEWSPAPERS.
ON TV. HE DOESN'T LIKE THAT.
SO SEAN SPICER AND HOPE ARE CREATING THIS ULTIMATE REALITY
WHERE THINGS ARE AMAZING. EVERYTHING IS GREAT.
EVERYTHING IS PERFECT. AND THEY KNOW THAT THEY'RE JOBS
ARE NOT THAT SECURE. TRUMP IS NOT VERY LOYAL TO
PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT HIS FAMILY. THEY KNOW IF THEY MAKE THE WRONG
MISTAKE, THEY'RE GOING TO BE ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK.
THEY'RE WILLING TO PUSH OUT GARSING STATEMENTS TO SAFE GUARD
THEIR JOBS. IN TERMS OF SUPPORTERS, A LOT OF
SUPPORTERS ARE DIE-HARD. THEY WILL STAY AND FIND IT.
>> I WANT TO ADD TO THE PANEL THE FORMER BREITBART MEDIA
CONSULTANT. IT'S GREAT TO HAVE YOU AND
MICHELLE HERE WHO UNDERSTAND THAT WORLD.
IT SEEMS LIKE THAT TRUMPISM IS ALSO BANNONISM.
THERE'S A DEAR LEADERISM TO IT THAT MIGHT BE BANNONITE, TOO.
STEVEN MILLER WHO WAS SEEN AS A BANNON ALLY BEFORE HE JUMPED
SHIP TO KRISHNER'S TEAM, THIS IS WHAT HE SAID BACK IN FEBRUARY
TALKING ABOUT THE TRAVEL BAN REACTION TO IT.
>> OUR OPPONENTS, THE MEDIA AND THE WHOLE WORLD WILL SOON SEE,
AS WE BEGIN TO TAKE FURTHER ACTIONS THAT THE POWERS OF THE
PRESIDENT, TO PROTECT OUR COUNTRY ARE VERY SUBSTANTIAL AND
WILL NOT BE QUESTIONED. >> THAT STRUCK MOST PEOPLE,
KURT, AS CREEPY. >> AND NEVER SEEN ON TV AGAIN.
>> BUT INSIDE OF BREITBART WORLD.
INSIDE OF THE TRUMP DIE-HARD BASE, HOW IS THAT KIND OF TALK
RECEIVED? >> WELL, IT'S EXPECTED.
AGAIN, THIS MIRRORS WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A DICTATORIAL
REGIME. A MANDATE THAT THERE ARE EFUSES
OVER THE TOP FOR THEIR BELOVED LEADER.
EVEN IN THE FACE OF MAKING A MISTAKE, EVEN SOMETHING AS MINOR
ACE TYPO ON A TWEET, THERE'S A MIND-SET THAT YOU NEVER ACCEPT
OR DID ANYTHING WRONG. YOU'RE NEVER AT FAULT.
THAT'S VERY STEVE BANNON LIKE. NEVER ALLOWING ANYONE TO
PRESSURE YOU TO DO ANYTHING THAT YOU SHOULD HAVE TO DO.
AND THE FACT THAT EVERYONE SHOULD EXCEPT WHAT YOU HAVE TO
SAY BECAUSE YOU SAID IT AND NEVER QUESTION THAT.
>> AND IT WAS SEEN BY A LOT OF PEOPLE, EVAN, KIND OF THE
GUARDIAN, THE DIGNITY OF THE WHITE HOUSE EVEN IF DONALD TRUMP
GOES OFFER THE RAILS. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE MIKE PENCE,
HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE THAT'S GOT MORE DIGNITY, RIGHT?
THIS IS MIKE PENCE PRAISING IN IOWA ON SATURDAY AT THE JONI
ERNST ANNUAL ROAST. THIS IS MR. PENCE.
>> LET ME SAY FROM MY HEART AS THE PROUD FATHER OF A UNITED
STATES MARINE, I COULDN'T BE MORE GRATEFUL TO BE VICE
PRESIDENT TO A PRESIDENT WHO CARES OWE DEEPLY ABOUT THE MEN
AND WOMEN OF THE ARMED FORCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
CONGRESS, IN FACT, UNDERSTAND THE PRESIDENT'S LEADERSHIP WITH
YOUR SENATOR'S SUPPORT JUST 35S
PASSED THE LARGEST INCREASE IN
MILITARY SPENDING IN NEARLY TEN YEARS.
>> THEY GENUINELY LOVED EACH OTHER.
WHEN HE WOULD SPEAK ABOUT HIM HE GENUINELY PRAISED HIM A LOT.
YOU NEVER SAW THIS AUTOCRATIC COUNTRY PRAISE FOR EFFUSIVE
PRAISE. >> MIKE PENCE IS ALREADY MARRIED
TO DONALD TRUMP BY VIRTUE OF BEING ON THE TICKET WITH HIM.
I THINK WHAT YOU'RE SEEING FROM THE TRUMP/PENCE ADMINISTRATION
NOW THEY'RE TURNING TOWARDS THE BASE BECAUSE INDEPENDENTS ARE
ABANDONING THEM. DEMOCRATS WEREN'T REALLY THERE
TO BEGIN WITH. THE FEW THAT WERE ARE MOVING
AWAY. THEY'RE STARTING TO SEE CRACKS
IN THE TRUMP BASE. THAT'S WHY HE PULLED OUT OF THE
PARIS ACCORD. THEY NEED TO HAVE THAT SUPPORT
TO STAVE OFF ANY NEGATIVE REPERCUSSIONS TO TRY TO HOLD ON
AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE TO WIN AGAIN IN 2020.
>> TO MICHELLE AND THEN TO KURT. SOMEBODY THAT WE USED TO HAVE ON
THE SHOW FROM TIME TO TIME, BORIS EPSTEIN IS NOW WORKING FOR
SINCLAIR BROADCASTING WHICH IS A VERY LARGE BROADCAST OUTFIT THAT
BROADCASTS LOCAL NEWS AROUND THE COUNTRY.
THIS IS A TWEET EARLIER TODAY THAT TRUMP AIDE CARRIED STATE
MESSAGE ON LOCAL NEWS ABOUT REDUCING PRESS ACCESS IN THE
WHITE HOUSE. BORIS IS NOW GIVING DISPATCHES
ON LOCAL NEWS WHERE HE SPOUTS THE PRESIDENT'S SAME EFFUSIVE
PRAISE ON LOCAL NEWS. IS THAT WHERE THIS IS HEADED?
THAT THE BREITBART BRAND IS GOING TO BE PROLIFERATED TO MANY
UNSUSPECTING NEWS PEOPLE? >> I THINK SO.
I THINK THIS IS NOT JUST GOING TO BE LIMITED TO BREITBART NEWS.
THIS IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO GROW AND THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE
WHO ARE NOW ON TV AND WHO ARE -- TRUMP BASICALLY SPOKESPEOPLE.
GOING BACK TO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, WHY DO PEOPLE BELIEVE
SOME OF THIS STUFF, WHY DO THEY DEFEND TRUMP?
THE REASON WHY, TRUMP AND THE MEDIA HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB OF
DELEGITIMIZING IT. AND SPICER SAYING, NO, HE
ACTUALLY SPEAKS ARABIC. THEY'RE GOING WITH WHAT
BREITBART SAYS AND TRUMP SAYS. >> AS A MEDIA CONSULTANT, WHAT
DO YOU THINK THE CHANCES OF THIS PROPAGANDA AND DEAR LEADERISM
AROUND THE COUNTRY? >> I THINK TO BUILD UP ON WHAT
THEY'VE BUILT IN PLACES LIKE BREITBART TO A LOCAL LEVEL.
THIS IS FROM DAY ONE ATTACKED THE MEDIA, THEY'VE DONE THE
ENEMY. THEY'VE DONE THE YOU CANNOT
BELIEVE WHAT THEY SAY. THEY DRAW THIS TO THE LOCAL
LEVEL, THE GRASSROOTS LEVEL. THAT'S WHERE THE SUPPORT IS
DEEPEST. THAT'S WHERE THEY REINFORCED THE
MESSAGE THAT THEY NEED TO LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR INFORMATION.
REMEMBER, DURING THE CAMPAIGN, THERE WAS ALL OF THIS TALK
WATCHING TV SHOULD TRUMP LOSE WITH BANNON AND OTHER FIGURES.
THEY DIDN'T GIVE UP ON THAT IDEA, THE ONLY CHANCE THEY HAVE
IT IS A DIRECT TO CONSUMER PLATFORM TO DRIVE THE MESSAGE
WITHOUT THEFILTER OF THE NATIONAL MEDIA.
>> AND FOR FOLKS THAT MAY HAVE 3 MILLION PEOPLE WATCHING A SHOW.
BROADCAST NEWS IS EXPONENTIALLY BIGGER.
YOU MAY BE TALKING ABOUT WHERE PEOPLE DON'T HEAR WHAT DONALD
TRUMP DOES THAT'S NEGATIVE THEY ONLY HEAR PRAISE.
THAT'S ALL OVER THE COUNTRY ON YOUR LOCAL NEWS.
THAT IS HAPPENING. EVAN, MICHELLE AND KURT, THANK
YOU VERY MUCH.
