I don't think we can call any PressSec "dumb." Sure, KJP is being accused of being a "grifter" here (right or wrong.) If it's true, there's a level of intelligence there to pull it off.

I think it's fair to call all of them "paid actors." Some are just better than others.

I have to say this. For a 27 year old Leavitt strikes me as pretty sharp for her age and the position. In her time and role, Psaki did a good job for POTUS. Both Sanders and Carney got in my nerves: I can't point to exactly why.

Dumb was a bad choice of words. KJP is grifting, her book is going to detail shit, but she was part of the problem just as was Tapper. You knew Biden was off on a rocket ship mentally and you continued for over a year to cover it up, but now you want to write books and talk about it? Yeah fuck off with that.

I agree, they’re all paid actors and sound pieces for some real stupid shit.

Leavitt is good at her job, I liked Psaki, Sanders and Carney were close to dumb. Fleischer was pretty good too. I forgot Perino was another of W’s PressSecs, I know her more for the shit she spouts on Fox. Spicer wasn’t too bad either.

Ari is still interesting. I'll stop and watch/read a comment from him much more quickly than I will from George Stephanopoulos.

These fall in with KJP. As I mentioned to @Krimson the other day, "I don't get her." I never "got them." It didn't ring right, ya know?

I've seen her on Gutfeld! a few times. Other than that? There's not a whole lot. If I'm right, she's part of a news hour on Fox in the mornings with Bill Hemmer (something like that.) I've watched that a few times because it's news: not opinion so much. A little less opinion is a better way to put that (versus something like The Situation Room on CNN.) The Five I don't watch. Hell, I really don't "watch news." I read and then I'll look for different coverages.

Still, to this day, the only show I watch on Fox News is Gutfeld! I've followed him for years.

Perino has mentioned trips to Charleston on his show. Just like Oprah, you hear when they've been in town...or are in town. (Heather was eating at a little bistro a few weeks ago and Reese Witherspoon was there. I know she has a place on one of the Islands. Who the fuck cares? But, it's interesting knowing where they were. Not who, but where.)

See. A hijack into food again...

Spicer wasn’t too bad either.
He still gives me a weird vibe.

I cannot stand opinion things on news channels, which is why I stopped watching them. If I wanted the opinion I’d read opinions in newspapers.

There are a couple that I find entertaining like Jon Oliver, Ali Velshi, and Chris Hayes. I sometimes listen to the Bulwark Podcast
 
Chris Hayes.
He's one I think needs to move on. The "Uterus Harvester?" Wasn't that his gig? That didn't pass by the ethics board at NBC and he still aired the story...AFTER saying it didn't pass standards the same day.

NBC guy, right? Maybe I have the wrong guy here.

That's the lawsuit they lost, right?

She's better than a 31 y/o Dee Dee Myers, part of that group of Clinton staffers who couldn't get permanent clearances due to drug use.

I had forgotten about her. She's been involved in a few train wrecks: Bradley as LA mayor, Dukakis was another. I think she got her start with Mondale.

If I'm not mistaken, isn't she with Newsom now?
