Alternative Facts: The Mathematical Formula.


Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer was honored with a prestigious fellowship at the Institute of Politics at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government (Twitter).

Sean Spicer was given a fellowship at the Institute of Politics at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government. Why is anyone’s guess. I can’t imagine what Mr. Spicer might teach students. As it turns out, the students were less than impressed with Spicer’s load of empty air. Mr. Spicer was described as inarticulate and whiny. Mr. Spicer did impart one bit of math:

“An alternative fact is 3+1=4 or 4+0=4. Those are alternative facts. A lie is 3+2=4. Alternative facts are legitimate tools to use in politics,” the students said he argued.

So, there you have it, straight from the jackass’s mouth.

    Now, the kind of “alternative facts” Mr Spicer and Ms Conway presented were more like 5 * 9 * 0 = 5,000,000,000.00.

    Referencing Orwell was a particular bit of obliviousness for Spicer.
    … but basically he was celebrating his ascendancy to the “I got mine, so fuck you” Set.
    Unfortunately, he’s one of the more personable and intelligent representatives of the oligarchy and all the slugs and skunks called in busy.

    “Ha ha ha I lied to you and now you are kissing my ass.” Truth hurts.

    These are not “alternative facts” these are just ordinary facts with nothing alternative about them whatsoever.
    Sean Spicer is quite an adept at being a professional idiot.
