Old Series of Tweets Shows Trump's New Press Secretary Absolutely Skewering Trump During 2016 Primary Debate

Old Series of Tweets Shows Trump's New Press Secretary Absolutely Skewering Trump During 2016 Primary Debate

Picture the time, during the 2016 election, when over a dozen Republicans were vying for the Republican Presidential nomination.

Many of those Republicans—like Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Ted Cruz (R-TX)—saw Trump as a bigoted, temperamental lowlife who wasn't fit to be President.


Flash forward to 2017, where Graham, Cruz, and a slew of others who initially denounced him became Trump's most loyal supporters once he moved into the White House.

You can now add Trump's latest Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany to that list.

The American people know McEnany as one of Trump's most devout defenders during the 2016 and beyond, but newly resurfaced tweets reveal her allegiance to Trump wasn't always so unyielding.

During one of the Republican primary debates, McEnany skewered Trump's lack of preparation, while praising his enemies.


McEnany's criticisms may not have been as biting as other Trump critics-turned-allies, but it does show just how unyielding her devotion to Trump—or to the position of Press Secretary has become.

The woman once capable of pointing out valid critiques of the President now makes the exasperating claim that he's never once told a lie.

How far they've fallen.





This isn't the first time McEnany's past tweets have gotten her in trouble.

During former President Barack Obama's second term, she made a racist crack about his brother living in a hut in Kenya.

It's a quip that people haven't let her forget and for which she has yet to apologize.



It's good to know that Kayleigh's principles are as fallible as those of her boss.

It's the holidays again, which of course means the yearly tradition of Christians having a meltdown about supposedly being persecuted by the existence of non-Jesusy Christmas stuff is back with a vengeance.

But the latest flap online is really a doozy in its audacity both because it's incredibly dumb and also a lie, obviously posted as a purposeful attempt to get attention.

Massachusetts Catholic Church Angers Conservatives With Its Brutal ICE-Themed Nativity Scene

The Christian Bible teaches that the Holy Family—Joseph, Mary, and Jesus—were residents of the Herodian ruled Nazareth, Galilee. Having traveled back to Joseph's ancestral home—Roman ruled Bethlehem, Judea—for the census, Mary and Joseph, in modern American parlance, would have been homeless immigrants/tourists having an "anchor baby" at the time of Jesus' birth.

While Joseph considered Galilee his immediate family's home, the trio would eventually flee to Egypt as refugees to escape from King Herod.

Trump Ripped After Forcing National Parks To Drop Free Entry On MLK Day And Juneteenth For Infuriating Reason

President Donald Trump was criticized after the National Park Service announced it will be dropping Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth for next year's calendar of free-entry days and adding Trump's birthday, which happens to fall on Flag Day, on June 14.

Last month, the Department of the Interior unveiled changes to what it now calls its “resident-only patriotic fee-free days,” expanding the calendar to include new dates like the Fourth of July weekend and President Theodore Roosevelt’s birthday, while dropping others that had honored the department itself, including the Bureau of Land Management’s anniversary.
