Whether this is an excuse aside, this is a classic example of something that’s been known for months - that others, primarily Scavino but others, have access to the twitter feed - being treated like a revelationhttps://twitter.com/prchovanec/status/937417266274209799 …

Um because nothing ever follows that Linear a progression?
-
I'm so confused.

This just seems like quibbling. The interesting thing is that someone else wrote and posted the tweet - other people are accessing POTUS's account so we are to assume that he doesn't control it so it's some kind of performance art? WTF?
-
And as to that, Maggie is completely right. We've known Scavino, at least, has access. The WH (i.e., Scavino or someone else in WH comms) is clearly posting the event/video/etc.-type ones.
-
Is there a story about this somewhere? Or is this just insider journalist talk?

Because they constantly hang onto information as if it’s the last scrap of food on a deserted island, even if it could help them to clarify by any logical measure?
-
This isn’t confusing. You’re assuming “Dowd wrote” means “Dowd put it on Twitter.” Then you’re wondering why a White House that routinely doesn’t adhere to normal standards didn’t make that clear.
-
Sorry. That all does make sense. I just didn't understand why your response to Patrick wasn't that no one had said Dowd had access to his Twitter. Anyway, understood now, and got it.
-
Because he seemed to be reacting to idea that other people have access at all. Which isn’t new.
-
I'm with Chris. It was confusing. But as for how relevant the tweet to who posted it, I think the point missed is - a lie is a lie is a lie. It's not like it was some sort of routine announcement coming from WH staff. It was taking personal responsibility for major incident.

Because that wouldn't fit Maggie's MO of running interference for Trump.
-
Maggie is a journalist; she’s supposed to report. I doubt her opinions on Trump are different than ours.
-
Where have you been? Maggie (and her recently disgraced partner Glenn Thrush) traded journalistic objectivity for access to Trump
