It's come to THIS? Kayleigh McEnany slams Politico reporter's 'absolutely absurd' question about Trump and the Civil War

By now you’ve probably become used to the absolute clown show that some in the White House press corps put on during briefings, but a question for Trump spox Kayleigh McEnany at today’s presser surely takes the cake for the biggest “it’s come to THIS” moment of the month:

And no, that wasn’t even Jim Acosta:

Ryan Lizza of course. What a waste of a briefing room seat. https://t.co/q9zijXfY4h

Another banner day for the White House press corps!

People pretending there is any validity to these stupid bad faith questions is insane. This is nonsense, they know that, but they don't care to ask anything real.

The White House Press Corps is to journalism what Joe Biden is to Mensa. https://t.co/4ecDUuIs4r

Another excellent in-kind campaign contribution to @TeamTrump from the Democrat comms arm known as the media https://t.co/RDMtKbqlUy

The media has completely jumped the shark. https://t.co/nJ8R9z3Kjr

And yet they keep finding sharks to jump.

Asking the president of the United States if it's a good thing that we won a war? They're sinking lower and lower ? https://t.co/TQqB6pnLjM

And they’re still digging.
