Sean Spicer for some reason. I guess it was his angry responses. Trump's people are always so angry. Of course, I'd be mad as hell too if I had to lie on the spot the way they do.

he was dripping way too much smug snottiness.

Small wonder that Trump held his unscheduled event to try to draw cameras away from this mess.

I had to turn it off. Pompeo was simply down-right hostile. He came to that hearing with hatred, condesension, and ill-will in his heart. If that's how he talks to an American senator, imagine how he treats foreign diplomats and heads of state. He and Trump are 2 peas in a pod.

First time I ever witnessed a leader of the same party lecture a witness. Some Republicans fawned, but others did not mince words.

which means that if we don't belong to HIS church, we are a heretics, and why he thinks he can look down his nose at us. Being a Buddhist, I am sorely challenged to have compassion for even a snot nose like him.
