#SEANSPICER

White House spokesman Sean Spicer caused uproar by claiming Hitler never used chemical weapons. @Chiproggo fumed: “Nazis through and through. Trump used anti-semitic code during campaign re: dismantlin­g industry structure/leadership implying lead by Jews.” @ette524 ruled: “His apology is too little, too late and he should resign. He could go down as the 1st rat to jump from the sinking ship.” @thespeechf­actor explained: “Comparison­s to Hitler never good. @Presssec words are inexcusabl­e. Don’t believe he’s antisemiti­c, #Ignorant of facts. #Studyhisto­rynow.” @mitchellvi­i retorted: “#Media is SO dumb. They took a simple gaffe by Spicer and painted it as ‘Holocaust Denial.’ THAT’S why no one believes them anymore.”

How could I not love you, soccer?!”
