WASHINGTON—White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany rebuked critics of the president in a briefing Thursday, forcefully arguing that politicians and pundits alike would seize on any six-figure death toll that suits their particular narrative. “What’s clear is that the biased media in this country is willing to draw attention to any mortalities of American citizens over 100,000 as long as it fits in their narrow perception of what’s important,” said McEany in response to a reporter’s question about the administration’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic before stressing that the president’s supporters would see the death toll for the brazen partisan attack it has always been. “There’s an obvious opportunism at work when the president’s opponents are suddenly up in arms any time tens of thousands American lives are lost. Frankly, was the mainstream media going to accept any number of mass casualties without pouncing on it as an excuse to scrutinize the commander in chief’s decision making? I somehow doubt it.” McEnany went on to emphasize that such biased coverage conveniently ignored the hundreds of millions across the country whom the president’s actions had left alive.

55andwhat If by narrative you mean Negligent Homicide or Manslaughter of over 203,000 Americans, then YES, that's it EXACTLY. That he sat on the info for MONTHS without doing a single thing to warn us, or making a PLAN to combat it, defines Gross Indifference to human suffering.

Lock her up with trump!

Remember when 4 Americans dead in Benghazi was a scandal so big that the person in charge sat through hours of testimony.

Until they need 7, at least...

MalcolmNance Critics will not seize on any 6 figure death toll. 200 thousand dead Americans, isn’t a number to celebrate. Russia, China and the USA according to world leaders, have the most deaths and the lack of leadership is driving the count up every day.

I think this is supposed to be a Not The Onion post...

Is she the “new” Monica Lewinsky? Just asking since she’s so far into him.

The Onion said it before the Administration could

Translation Trumps critics will “seize on” communicating the “death toll” happening because of the actual deaths of our very own dying US people caused by Trump and all his lying enablers PressSec is senseless

swin24 SHUT UP SPARROW

AJemaineClement Said without the slightest hint of irony, I presume?

AJemaineClement PressSec

AJemaineClement Those pesky facts again....

AJemaineClement Satire also died in 2020

wally_polischuk Is there more than one?

judacris How does the onion even have a job anymore?

The Republicans have made this land half real, half Onion.

Telling it like it is. It is what it is

MalcolmNance Right now we’re “seizing” on 200,000 dead Americans, 3/4 of whom are dead because of donald Pinocchio trump

That 'the but nobody's light is on home' look.

MalcolmNance Oh, there are other 6 figure deaths that we don't know about, or just this one 200,000 that leads you to make that 'any six-figure death' generalization to NO OTHER ONE. You damn right, we're pissed about this.

MalcolmNance So the onion is doing real news now😂

MalcolmNance Too plausible for an Onion article

Imagine if there wasn’t a six figure death toll to seize on in the first place. Don’t bother replying telling me it could have been two million if heroic Trump hadn’t saved us. All bullshitters will be muted.

MalcolmNance I will not lie when I am at the podium. Cover up is yo middle name. hushmoney under the table.

MalcolmNance Six figure death toll with a 2 in front.

MalcolmNance Why is the onion no longer satire or at least would be perceived as real.

MalcolmNance White House Press Secretary over 200,000 lives is not just a narrative it is a harsh and cruel reality because of lies, negligence, and lack of leadership. Over 200,000 families are grieving don't you understand this could have been avoided had the country not been lied to.

MalcolmNance Heartless, through and through. TrumpLemmings

MalcolmNance Honestly, this may as well be true.

MalcolmNance That’s why fake Christian PressSec is known as BullshitBarbie

MalcolmNance LOL I've said it before, with this administration you can never tell if it's a true headline or an Onion headline! The regime that embraces alternative facts makes anything believable!

MalcolmNance I could see Karen McNinny saying that, legit.

MalcolmNance She’s crazy

Bro... Stop being real.

Those 200,000 people would have died anyway. I mean, people are mortal. Everyone dies eventually

Happy that Trump found himself someone who gives even less of a shit than he does...a match made in hell...

Now do Obama Care. I've played this game before.

This satire is getting too real

she is a moran bad example of what it means to be an intelligent women

'There are a lot more people who would rather be dead. Good people, too! There's your story. Report that!' -Trashcan Barbie Lyin' McEnema

94% of which are not legitimate

Pretty crazy, that lately at first glance I think your articles are real news. That’s where we’re at.

'But the country is united like no other time before thanks to Zoom!'

I thought this paper was supposed to be satire...

According to Biden, it's 9 figures by the time he stops talking.

9 figures according to Biden.

nancyerikasmith “200,000 is a pretty low number of coronavirus deaths, considering how hard trump and the republicans have been working at getting this thing to spread around.”

Omfg 6 figures !!!

MerseyMal Yes. The narrative noted is called Real

We're turning the corner!

This is actually not a joke.

Too close to reality.

karencollinsnyc If it’s true we will!

MaxBoot Sad that this seems entirely factual. Man, the state of things right now is absolutely heartbreaking.

MaxBoot Are you kidding me OMG!!!!!

MaxBoot Says a soulless person..lost in nasty lies..everything for the boss...even the soul on a plate..electrocuted

MaxBoot She is one sick deluded puppy. Sick, sick.

MaxBoot The craziest thing about the Onion content these days...is that it’s not immediately identifiable as satire. I just read this headline, and would have been only mildly surprised if McEnany had actually said that.

'McEnany went on to emphasize that such biased coverage conveniently ignored the hundreds of millions across the country whom the president’s actions had left alive.' The Onion - now just another news source of highly probable events.

Friends, check out this 👇👇

This is interesting Do take a look

MaxBoot 'He's the most outstanding president ever to preside over the killing of 200,000 Americans and the worst unemployment since the Great Depression!!'

MaxBoot Wow, imagine if one of those 200,000 + was a neigbor, a friend or a family member. There's NOTHING Christian or pro-life about that scrawny little liar. ByeKayleigh

MaxBoot Explain to me how it's a hoax. Is the entire world in on this hoax?

Eh hem! 👇🏿😷

This is fake news spread by fake-news propaganda

It's bad when Onion headlines could be CNN.

MaxBoot She lies like trump

Stressing that the president’s supporters would see the death toll for the brazen partisan attack it has always been. McEnany went on to emphasize that such biased coverage conveniently ignored hundreds of millions across the country whom the president’s actions had left alive

Friends, this you can't miss at all please.

MaxBoot Wear a mask. Social distance. Wash your hands. Avoid large crowds.

yes

Wow ,,, she is Right

MaxBoot

At first I thought this wasn’t parody. “Why is the Onion reporting fact?” Shows how many lies come from her.

'I will never tell a lie.' Lol.

So petty, right?

Sometimes it's hard to figure if it's the PS or one of many Fox hosts. Those that didn't run away from the predator in charge, that is.

Yeah not buying that stupid politicking. Talk to me when we’ve hit 8 digits

outofcontroljb Another graduate of trump university

outofcontroljb I remember when Onion satire was clearly obvious, and funny, nowadays I really have to look closely and sometimes I cannot tell if it’s satire anymore

outofcontroljb Prom Date

outofcontroljb President Trump: 'All those people died just because they want to hurt my chances of being re-elected!'

outofcontroljb Because there are so many? KayleighMcEnany is the Devil’s spawn.

outofcontroljb BARBIE tried to speak like a grown up

When did you actually start reporting facts instead of doing satire?

Numbers don’t lie, Missy!

AndrewFeinberg Bitch

So the onion is done playing nice. Welcome to 2020! It’s hell here and everyone is sad.

Have some perspective. That's barely the population of Billings, Montana.
