Today’s White House briefing featured more of the usual Psaki spin, but it also included a bit of joking with reporters about which TV show the current atmosphere in Washington, DC most resembles:
The @PressSec jokes that the dramatic negotiations over $3.5 trillion spending package are "why we all came to Washington–it's like an episode of a TV show!"
Which show? "Maybe the West Wing if something good happens. Maybe Veep, if not," she replies.

Oh, and Woody Harrelson visited Nancy Pelosi at the Capitol today as well. The Democrats do like to be associated with Hollywood.
Ugh. Of course the Biden WH thinks they’re living in the West Wing. https://t.co/xckQEUIyH5

The worst thing about the West Wing is that it made people like Jen Psaki want to be involved in politics https://t.co/JBiIy8zoWg

Did either Veep or The West Wing feature a border disaster, botched Afghanistan withdrawal and rampant inflation?
