washington post had an article the other day highlighting the difficulty that former trump staffer sean spicering jobs after leaving the white house with one current administration official referring to the stigma as the, quote, trump stink. we are watching vulnerable senators trying to avoid it. john cornyn. according to 538, he has voted with trump over 98% of the time. in 2008 he ran his first re-election campaign calling himself a big gun. in 2018 cornyn added donald trump to the ad. big john and big don fighting off the libs together. if you want to see it, you're out of luck. the big bear hug between cornyn has been spliced out of the archives on youtube. thankfully for us there is a bootleg version. john cornyn ties a star to big don. >> big don. big john. ♪ ♪ >> john cornyn, john, thank you. thank you, john. >> my god, that's creepy. throughout the trump era john cornyn's whole posture has been glib. that's a core thrown beer. fast forward, cornyn is an incumbent with m.j. hegar. when asked to basically defend the indefensible, that would be the president's horrible mismanagement of th

i saw former secretary sean spicer posted a message that tugged on the sympathies of his followers. you should have sympathy and vote for donald trump. you should have sympathy for him because he was on the frontline and he got covid and you should vote for him so that he could lead us into the next chapter of this country. i disagree with that. i do think the president hopefully will change his tune and stop calling it a hoax. covid-19 is not a hoax, and it should be taken very seriously. >> do you think he'll take the other route, it's not so bad. i was fine. >> it will be hard for him to say that because of all of the people around him who are also positive for covid and who may or may not be impacted. if he says that, it already becomes problematic because the neurological long-term effects of covid-19 are yet to really be measured in donald trump and some of the people who have been up front about the fact they are not the same after covid-19, that they don't have the same sharpness to deal with things. and so he may take that route. he already has declining neurological functi

sean spicer even came to scully's defense. and you say you take scully at his word. but what happened there? and will there be another debate, in the future, do you think? >> well, i certainly don't think there will be a debate. how is the president going to stand there? the reason why he was interrupting vice president biden so much in the first debate is what is he going to say? i ruined the economy. i lied about the health care crisis. tens of thousands of people died, unnecessarily, because of my lack of crisis-management skills. how is he going to sit there and tolerate that for two more debates? so, i predict there won't be any more debates. as it relates to steve scully, i take him at his word. he's a very good guy and a credible journalist. i responded to it with what i thought was very good advice, by the way. don't respond to the president. don't take his bait. let people like me, okay, fellow new yorkers take the bait, and let me knock heads with him. it's not appropriate for journalists to do that and steve's an objective guy. and if they decide to use hi

highlighting the difficulty that former trump staffers especially former press secretary and sean spicering jobs after the white house with one current administration officialerering to the stigma as the trump stink. now it appears we are watching vulnerable senate republicans trying to dodge the trump stink of their own. republican senator devoted to trump. he has voted with trump 95% of the time. more often than all but two current republican senators. he ran his first reelection campaign calling himself big john. ten years later he added donald trump to the ad. part of the introduction video at the republican party of texas convention. big john and big don. fighting off the libs together. unfortunately if you want to see the big don and john video. that he cut. you're out of luck. the big bear hug has been spliced out of the republican parties archive recording on you tube. this is a true thing. there's a bootleg version. john cornen ties his star to big don. >> that is krin ji. it has a time capsule feel. his rhetorical posture has been a dismissiveness of the libs. in the smug tweet

from the first time sean spicer went into the briefing room and said the crowd was the biggest ever, the president doesn't believe in telling the truth. now even at this kcritical time for the country, he's still doing it. >> why do you think chief of staff mark meadows painted a much more dire or serious picture yesterday after that press conference in which he tried to make that off the record or at least on background and it was so different than what we just heard publicly from the doctors. >> i think it's because he knew the truth. >> he knew the truth would eventually come out. they would need to somehow marry the false story with a story that would eventually come out. that's why he tried to do it without his name on it, but he got busted there. but he knew -- he knew what the facts were. frankly, he wasn't willing to go along with the false narrative the president was directing from walter reed. >> anthony, there has been a pattern of deception since the coronavirus reached the white house. doctors say the progression of symptoms don't make sense and we still don't know when

remember when sean spicer said that president trump's inauguration had the largest audience ever, period? well, mr. trump is trailing in national polls but he's falling back on a familiar metric as a sign of how his campaign is doing. >> we are one movement. and you know, there has never been a movement like this. you know. there's never been crowds like this. you know when joe biden stops if he has three, four people, i mean -- no, seriously. he has the circles. you know the little circles. which i love. the guy who does the circles is very neat. i'm a perfectionist. nice big beautiful, yellow. they're very far apart because he can't get any people. there's only five of them. and they have a hard time filling them up. but here we have thousands of people. >> now, joe biden's events do have smaller crowds. they do have fewer people. the reason being his campaign is following local and federal covid guidelines to avoid large gatherings. tonight the president is holding a rally in waukesha, wisconsin about 25 minutes west of milwaukee. and that is where we find nbc political reporter shaqu
