and who could ever forget this? this was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period. oh, day one. spicy sean spicer. the largest. period. the president is obsessed with the size of his crowds. he seems to be obsessing about greenland and the question of whether he ll try to buy it from denmark. this is what he said today. so the concept came up and i said certainly, strategically we would be interested, but we ll talk to them a little bit. it s not number one on the burner, i can tell you that. all right. that was yesterday. not number one on the burner. you hear that, greenland? you got to take that laying down? are you going to take that laying down, greenland? come on. the president spinning everything from warning signs in the economy to, as i showed you, greenland. lots to discuss.

i don t treat one person different than the next. but to suggest that somehow because of her gender or race she would be treat differently i think is frankly demeaning to her. white house briefings get tense. that s not uniquing to this white house. do you think spicer is more helping or hurting the white house with this stuff? i don t think that this had anything to do with her race or gender. i think this has to do with respect. i think the way that this white house is conducting themselves with reporters and adversaries in general, the name calling, the condescending nature that we saw yesterday, that is corrosive. we ve all had chippy conversations with press secretaries. that s the nature of this job. but it does go too far. sean spicer called another reporter an idiot this week. that s not appropriate. that s not appropriate on a playground and certainly isn t appropriate in the white house briefing room. if you take there and misstatements copping from the podium since ina
