5:28Now PlayingOn Friday, White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany claimed that Donald Trump was denied a peaceful transition of power after his electoral victory in 2016, which was her way of trying to justify the behavior of the administration towards Biden's team. The only problem is that McEnany is lying her butt off, and it is public knowledge that Trump was given everything he needed in order to succeed. Farron Cousins discusses this.

During her Friday, press briefing, white house, press secretary Kaylee McInerney attempted to actually rewrite American history in order to paint Donald Trump as some kind of a victim following his electoral victory in 2016. Now, before we explain exactly what she did, let's kind of go back through this. Isn't new, by the way, what Makan Annie's doing, Trump has repeatedly attempted throughout his entire presidency to paint himself as some kind of a victim, even though he won, Oh, there were guests. We all know there were 3 million illegal votes. Oh, my inauguration was bigger. And anybody who says it, wasn't bigger is lying to you. And then you have to ban certain departments from being able to tweet out the picture because they're just evil and they're against me. And then Obama was spying on me. Okay, well, let's launch a hundred investigations and none of them were able to confirm that at all.
And the spine that did take place. Sure. Maybe, maybe there were some dubious means in there. However, the court said there was nothing actionable. And I don't even know that the methods were that dubious to begin with, by the way, Oh, some people said some things behind the scenes and Oh my goodness, it was based on this. But you already knew that this guy had a bad history Carter page. Look, he's been playing the victim for four years and Kaylee McInerney came out. And once again, rewrote another part of history on Friday to make him look like an even bigger victim. That part was about his transition because after all we know that Trump, his administration, they have told everybody working for them in every department, you are not allowed to comply or in any way work with the Biden transition team. And according to reports actually out on Friday, uh, they were told if you work with anybody from the transition, you will be fired.
And if you know of anybody working with them, give us their names because we need to handle them terrifying stuff. So here's what McInerney, uh, said on Friday, uh, she said many sought to undermine him, discredit him, de legitimize him and deny his victory. There were no calls for unity. There were no calls for healing. Let us not forget the inexcusable transition or lack thereof that president Trump had to endure in 2016 and four years into his presidency. So are you talking about all the people who said, Hey, Russia interfered and helped Donald Trump? Cause that was proven to be true. The extent of it, you know how effective it was, I guess that's still up for debate, but did they interfere with the intention of helping Donald Trump? Yes they did. They spent 130, some odd dollars, $130,000 on Facebook ads. We know that we know these things are true now.
So if that's what you're saying made for not a peaceful transition, you're still lying. The transition is members of the current administration, working with members of the incoming administration to get them up to speed, to start giving them intelligence briefings, to tell them what's actually happening in the world beyond what people know so that they can faithfully execute the jobs. This did happen. There's pictures of it. There's videos of it. Trump and Obama sitting there smiling. Trump looking confused as hell. Cause he doesn't stand it. Obama actually being nice to him. No sitting there calling him names or saying this was the old German auto log. Nope. None of that ever happened. Kaylee Obama did exactly what he was supposed to do.
You are choosing to justify your own bad behavior and the bad behavior of your administration. By trying to rewrite that history that we all saw happen, everybody in the country was paying attention at that point, because this was unprecedented. We were a little bit in shock that our country was this stupid to put this man in the white house. So we paid attention. You know, this, isn't the kind of thing you can sweep under the rug and be like, Nope, it never happened. Nope. We all saw it. We all saw it, but that is what this administration is going to do until their last seconds in office. They're going to lie. They're going to deny, they're going to delay.
