>> why are they making a big deal about sean spicer or me? >> i was a 72-year-old one legged man, the only puerto rican in the country who can't dance. it was a lot of fun, the thing about sean spicer, tom delay was on the show, rick perry was on the show, and tom bergeron is a great guy, the host is a great guy. i think he has fallen into now, it's politically incorrect to be welcoming, to be a compromiser, middle-of-the-roader, to be a peacemaker. everybody's going to be at odds with each other, even on a silly dance show like this. >> sean: i give you credit for doing it. i mean, hell would freeze over, i'm still not going on that show, not that they even asked me. jeff lord -- if i am sean spicer, you know what i would say?at i don't need this stupid show. who cares? did they pay geraldo for the show? >> they pay you something but it's chump change compared to your expenses. it was as an excuse for my family to get together, we had a lot of fun.. i got to meet von miller. >> sean: i liked when you did a boxing match too. if i'm sean spice

others said they were disgusted by this. >> when you take somebody, particularly why is sean spicer - is known for the controversies around his misinforming the country, they are warning that. >> sean: can somebody tell humpty dumpty at fake news cnn, a professional fox hater, there's not an hour of their 24-hour day that gets a million viewers, we don't care what you think. sean spicer is more well-known that you are, a lot more well-known. even the show's host is now trashing spicer being on the show, writing on twitter that he disagreed with the divisive casting. everyone is so upset about everything these days. he is responding to the outrage, trying to lower the temperature saying he hopes for a politics free zone. i think he is nuts for doing it, only the latest example of what is selective anti-trump outrage from the media mob, do they really give a rip? no. they want to bludgeon trump as usual paren . we have geraldo the fighter, the best coverage ever willowbrook, it really transforms how we treat and deserve our help, -- >> get to the punch line. >> sean: then there is this

and their focus is on sean spicer! >> elizabeth: sean spicer can't catch a break anywhere. politics when they are being entertained. that's a problem with nfl protests. >> melissa: they don't have to talk politics, they will be dancing? >> elizabeth: he won't be talking about trade and currency policy in between the foxtrot. i think they will probably get really good ratings. by the way, i feel really badly for tom delay on that carnival barker outfit he had to wear. [laughter] >> melissa: what i think is interesting about this -- tom bergeron, i think i'm saying his name wrong. i'm doing the best i can. he said, "helping you put politics aside for a second." they might find out what we find out on the count all the time. when you are talking some you disagree with, the relays they are human being and you are friends and we get a drink afterwards. you don't have the same animosity that you do when you are not face-to-face with this person. they may learn the lesson that the rest of america is missing and maybe they can share it with people afterwards. that we are all human

straight from the briefing room, it's sean spicer!ial he's on this? he was a former white house press secretary for president trump. six months was a length of his role. during that time he made several false and misleading statements. the most notable and memorable as the one where he claimed president trump's inauguration was bigger than his predecessor, president 0bama, despite photos clearly suggesting otherwise. since then, he said he regretted making that claim and admitted that he lied. as you heard on that announcement on dancing with the stars yesterday, the reaction has been furious. there is anger that a man who has deceived the american people is being paid to dance on tv. and if you last beyond a few weeks, you could earn up to $300,000. that is around £250,000. some staff at abc news are set to be up some staff at abc news are set to be up in arms about it and have called ita up in arms about it and have called it a slap in the face. sean spicer says i look forward to having fun. i was kicked out of a band in the six gra

yeah. >> go ahead. >> what is wrong with having sean spicer on dancing with the stars? threat to the national security? >> i don't want to see him in a pirate shirt. not a puffy seinfeld pirate shirt. >> even the host of the show is not thrilled about him being on dancing with the stars. >> yeah. on a serious note i can tell you i talked to many hill republicans that have had a chance to work in the white house or for the campaign. they have turned them down because worries about post trump employment and ever being hired by google or facebook or going on to lobby. that is a real concern. you have the concern of the here and now. nobody speaks for trump but trump. this week alone he flip flopped on the payroll taxes. the white house said that was not a real thing. trump came out to confirm it for reporters right there. and then you had gun control, the flip flops on that. that is just a really tough job. >> it is a tough job. i think people will tune in to watch. i think that there are people tuning in to say they are not happy about it. i don't think people want to see

sean spicer on a dance show. these are spicy stories. some are purely madcap like spicer is, some are spats that reveal something larger as u.s. foreign policy can turn on trump's frenemy issues. our top story tonight is about the trump administration's actions that are some history reaching extreme degrees. so if you heard much about this top story tonight, note donald trump isn't tweeting much about it, it doesn't involve trolling or reality shows. it is about a president seizing new powers to detain people indefinitely. let me repeat. indefinite detention. the u.s. constitution, most dem creations severely limit the government's power to detain people, people not just adults, not just legal residents but all people because protections for human rights apply to all humans. keep that in mind as you take in the trump administration's new federal rule seizing detention powers attempting to abolish the current court approved limit how long migrant families are detained. trump claiming the power to hold it for as long as their cases to get

sean spicer is out there lying about voting fraud. >> cnn hired andrew mcelderccab accused of lying ande on the right side, you're hiring mccabe, why can't fox hire spicer? is there a difference? why can't fox hire sanders? is there a difference? >> of course. andrew mccabe will bring serious expertise with respect to the fbi and investigations, and he in no way was accused of standing in front of the american people and lying to them. he was accused of lack of candor and talking to the press that the proportion, skill and substance are up early in the comparable. >> is that a problem, two wrongs don't make a right behavior that goes on a lot? i find in my twitter feed, i got a lot of trump supporters saying every politician lies, so what's the big deal about trump? >> yeah, i get that all the time. i'll point out that trump made, say, 240 false claims in a single week before the midterms and i'll get people saying well, obama said you can keep your doctor under obamacare where you couldn't. every politician is not always honest and obama was sometimes dishonest. if you talk to any hist

i don't see him stepping down so he must not feel that strongly about it but nonetheless, sean spicerancing and it drew, you think that the problem. >> i do. despite lauren's point, i don't think half of america think that spicer didn't lied. i don't think anyone in america really believes that donald trump has a record sized crowd at his inauguration. at this point there is so many photographs that everyone knows spicer lied, he admitted he lied. it's not a 50/50 thing to come it's not a partisan issue. it's a fact versus fantasy. >> julie: he was doing his job and he did speak some untruths, but is going at the dance and people are going to watch. i want to move on, former miss nevada 2019 she's claiming the miss america organization kicked her out for her conservative views. i want to hear from katie joe williams herself and have you guys react. >> they can say they are a political all they want, however when they have other contestants posting more liberal views and nothing's been done to them, they are still wearing their crown and sash. >> lauren? >> it kind of ghost in the same

sean spicer. >> i think your analysis has been spot on.s has been too much focus on who is to blame. the reality is, suicide in this country is way up, especially among our veterans. too many people are killingg people through gun violence. the president today was pitch-perfect. everybody's been out there in the media and on the left criticizing the president. today he stood before america, talked about how we all should support these communities, sympathize with these families, pray for them, but also, he offered solutions. he talked about the red flag. there's too much going on with mental health in this country and the president today offered real solutions.h how we can all come together, whether it's video games or movies or tv shows, or the media, something is going wrong where people are realizing that either they need to kill themselves to find solace or they need to kill others. both are completely wrong and i think that this is one of those moments in america where instead of figuring out who is to blame, we can figure out what to

but sean spicer dancing on tv is actually not going to kill you or your family. okay? then one more thing they might be confused about. you are actually not going to be forced to watch it. nobody from abc is going to come in and put a gun to your head saying watch him dance or you will die. you can watch something else. you can go for a walk. or you can be grateful that you must not have any real problems. greg: exactly. there is a hole in their life. i think it might and spiritual one. >> this is the weirdest thing. i'm sitting here with four comedians. so i'm supposed to say something funny. this is important here. watch what the outrage here has to do with the fact that somehow we believe that if there is a conservative they cannot be on national television in a prominent spot. while the country is 50-50. how crazy is it that we are getting upset that 50% of the country is being represented in some way dancing. is that wild? right? and yet there is a tiny percentage in hollywood saying that can't happen because it doesn't represent us. it's wild. greg: that's a grea

i think this was during sean spicer's era. and it is a packed house. most of the time, it is busy. think sean had probably higher ratings than sarah. i think sarah has a way of bringing the temperature down in the briefing room. with sean, the temperature was always up. host: there is a photograph i have seen online where there are numbers on the people that says who they are. doug: i think early on, sean probably used that. i don't think sarah used to that. i think sarah pretty much knows everybody now. there are a lot of people who come into that briefing room, and sometimes for the first time, she doesn't know them. i don't know if she calls on them because she doesn't know them, but i am sure she can look at a reporter and no what kind -- know what kind of question she is going to get. host: how soon did you know you had an unusual photograph like this one? doug: that was at the african american museum. that was one of those where all of my colleagues were to my left, and i tried to go farthest to the right. i did not like what we were going to be seeing. luckily, the president
