1. Her Cross Protects Her

By wearing it, she is showing what an honest and truthful person she is, because who would profess to being a "Good Christian," if they tell LIE after LIE after LIE after LIE......?

[Traildogbob]

14. Not a cross

A “t” for the real God she worships, tRump, A god that lives by lying.

[SunSeeker]

18. If she really believed in Jesus, she wouldn't lie.

She is a fake Christian. She wears that cross to pander to the rubes.

[KS Toronado]

23. Pander to the rubes? Or pander for the rubles?

Asking for my repug neighbor.

[SunSeeker]

24. Putin uses a cross in the same way she uses it. Not a coincidence. nt

[PatSeg]

19. "Lying for Jesus"

Cutting corners for some mythical higher good I suppose.

[paleotn]

27. Lies for Jesus aren't lies

They firmly believe in the ends justify virtually any means. That makes crapping on people or even killing them all that much easier.

[PatSeg]

31. Yes, exactly

If in the name of god, the ends justify the means, you can pretty much do anything. How convenient for them. Fortunately, human laws usually do trump their manufactured biblical ones, but that wasn't always the case. Throughout history people committed horrific crimes in the name of some god or scripture, which makes you wonder, if many were and still are making it up as the go along.

3. interesting side matter

While we know that she graduated Harvard Law, no one can seem to discern whether she ever passed the Florida Bar exam, or any other.

[Wounded Bear]

12. Even Ivy League schools have their "gentleman's C's"...

[ProfessorGAC]

29. I Think It Worse

I think those gifts have become Bs, not Cs.

[llmart]

30. +1

Let's not forget Dubya bragging about how awful his grades were and "you can still become President with grades like that".

[Yeehah]

15. Third year only

Transferred from somehwere in Florida, IIRC. Academically smart but morally bankrupt.

[underpants]

6. Acosta is taking some parting shots

So she waves paper in the air about the election and now says they need to ask the campaign. She’s a part of both AND a member of neither.

[PatSeg]

20. All those journalists need to get in their parting shots

now that they can without the risk of being banned from the White House. You just know that they are itching to tell her off.

[gohuskies]

7. She thinks wearing the crucifix prevents her from spontaneously combusting into flames..

for all the lies, propaganda and disinformation she spreads for her Fuhrer.

[maxsolomon]

8. She is immune to shame.

It's really remarkable.

[PSPS]

9. She isn't in her usual clubbing attire so the cross must mean "temporarily closed."

[MontanaMama]

11. She is such a disrespectful POS.

I didn't think it was possible to dislike a press secretary more than SHS but this woman...I cannot say what I wish for her out loud.

[yonder]

13. It looks like she flashed a shit-eating grin just as she turned away and left.

I wonder what it was about? Shame? Embarrassment?

Nah, probably not.

[Cha]

16. TY Jim Acosta.. Damn Straight Disgraced

Liar kayleigh is a bloody hypocrite.

[spanone]

17. Thank you Jim Acosta. These lying liars are about to be banished.

It's disgusting how many 'intelligent' people have been willing to disgrace themselves and sell their souls to the worse president in our history.

[SunSeeker]

22. Should have been said by the White House press 4 years ago, and every day since then.

But I'll take it at this late date, and am retweeting it. Hopefully other members of the press will find courage as well.

[Ford_Prefect]

25. Is it considered abuse to ask her to use the big words correctly?

[Old Crow]

26. I thought the concluding statement of "Lies-a-Lot Barbie" was very catty.

It's not the first time she's done this. She often concludes with a petulant rant and then rushes off the podium. It comes across as childish and petty.

And yes, I know I shouldn't use a demeaning nickname for her. I should probably stop doing that. But I find it really hard to take her seriously.

[sandensea]

28. When McInane isn't disinforming...

she's busy giving Cheeto lip service.
