Sadly, it's looking like Spicer is drawing too much attention to himself. Shame really, his brand of flustered right wing squawking is clearly hiding some repressed tendencies. If he was to stick around long enough, I reckon some sort of Max Moseley story would have emerged.
Anyway, here he is demonstrating Godwin's Law in The Real World Sean Spicer criticised after saying Adolf Hitler 'didn't use chemical weapons'Comment

"I really disagreed with him (Comey, in July), I was not his fan," Trump said in Michigan on Halloween. "But I'll tell you what -- what he did, he brought back his reputation. He brought it back. He's got to hang tough because a lot of people want him to do the wrong thing.
"But what he did," Trump continued, "was the right thing."

“I have great respect for the fact that the FBI and the Department of Justice are now willing to have the courage to right the horrible mistake that they made,” Trump continued. “This was a grave miscarriage of justice that the American people fully understood. It is everybody’s hope that it is about to be corrected.”
You're terminated!"I cannot defend the Director's handling of the conclusion of the investigation of Secretary Clinton's emails, and I do not understand his refusal to accept the nearly universal judgement that he was mistaken," Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein wrote in a memo the White House cited as a reason for firing Comey.

Haven't seen the video of the FBI guy being handed his termination note in the middle of his speech, but my first thought was that he knew about it before starting and had staged the whole thing, with the news announcement in the background and the note handover both to occur when they did, to try and show up Trump as making impulsive and unpredictable sudden decisions.Work in the public sector?

Trump 'shared classified information with Russia' - BBC News
The discussion was about an IS plot. The president reportedly went "off-script", revealing specifics of the plot, thought to centre on the use of laptop computers on aircraft, and the city from which that threat had been detected.
The intelligence disclosed came from a US ally and was considered too sensitive to share with other US allies, the papers report.
Others present realised the mistake and scrambled to "contain the damage" by informing the CIA and the National Security Agency (NSA), says the Post."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
