Chris Hayes excoriates Trump: The White House is full of it & BS is part of its DNA

Chris Hayes did not pull any punches as he completely eviscerated the Trump administration for a White House defined by lies. Hayes started the segment showing a moment that illustrated the dishonesty of the Trump administration. A reporter asked Trump's Press Secretary Sean Spicer if Trump believed the jobs report now given his attack on them a few months back. Without blinking and with a smirk he said Trump said the reports might have been phony in the past, but they are real now. Everyone in the room laughed.

Hayes then went on a tear.

"The White House is full of it," Hayes said. "And they know it. And they know that reporters know it. And they don't care. You see not a single thing that emanates from this White House can ever-ever be immediately believed, or granted presumptive authority, or assumed to be true -- not one thing. Not what the President says. Not what Sean Spicer says. Or what officials say on the record or off the record. Nothing. No matter how serious or how trivial, you simply cannot take any of it at face value. And that is true no matter your politics. Or whether you support or oppose this President's agenda. This White House has shown over its first fifty days that at the most fundamental level, BS is part of its DNA."
