According to a new report from the Daily Beast, Mike Pence has been meeting with right wing personalities, media hosts and influencers on social media to try to help massage the message a little bit about the Trump administrations response to the coronavirus pandemic. Now, heres the weird thing about this. This wasnt an afterthought. This wasnt, okay, well now its been a couple of weeks. We need to go out there and start meeting with these people. Get the word out. Mike Pence started meeting with these folks the day after Donald Trump appointed him to head up the coronavirus task force. The very first thing he did was go out there and reach out to right wing media folks and right wing social media folks and say, how can we spin this? How can we make us look better? Thats whats happening here. Now, according to the Daily Beast, this actually began even before that at CPAC.

There was a little meeting that they all attended where they talked about how to massage the message, how to kind of whitewash things, how to make things really look so much better than they are. And then again, once Pence was appointed, first thing he does, he goes out, he holds the meeting, a meeting the next day. Then the next day holds another meeting with these folks and essentially they exchange talking points, explained to the White House how they have a massive PR crisis on their hands and how they could fix it. Some of the folks who have attended these meetings, according to Daily Beast, Fox news fixture and prolific MAGA tweeter, Dan Bongino, former Trump advisor and current war room 2020 podcast host, Jason Miller, Newsmax TV host and Trumps former press secretary Sean Spicer, former White House official and Sinclair must run commentator Boris Epshteyn, Sinclair anchor and ex Fox news host Eric Bolling and former representative Jack Kingston from Georgia who is also a Trump surrogate.

They also met with multiple MAGA folks who have massive Twitter followings or massive YouTube followings trying to get them to go out there and spread the good word about how awesome the Trump administration is doing in handling this crisis. And folks, if you had any doubt that the Trump administration doesnt care about human beings, this should have gone ahead and confirmed that no, they dont care about human beings. All they care about is the PR, the public relations side of this. They dont want people to lose faith in Donald Trump. Even though people left and right are losing faith in Donald Trump. They dont trust him. They dont think hes doing a good job with this. They dont think he can do a good job with this and thats what the White House wants to fix. They dont want to necessarily stop the spread of the pandemic. That, that doesnt seem to be the big concern there.

Its just, wow, I dont want people to think Im a moron and thats what theyre concerned about. Thats what theyre actually out there working on. In fact, Mike Pences chief of staff, Marc Short, actually defended these meetings. So he admitted that they happened. This is not, you know, a conspiracy. Theres, these meetings are actually happening. But anyway, Short goes out there and tells the media outlets that, well, you know, were doing this because we just want to get the word out to as many people as possible, as fast as possible. You know, its not, its not white washing. Its not propaganda. Its just because like if we need them to tweet something out, theyre going to go out and do it. So that helps get information out to the public. Thats a lie. That is an absolute lie because let me tell you how a lot of these right wing media personalities operate on Twitter, and I know this from experience because if you ever say one thing critical about them, or even if youve never spoken to them at all or tweeted about them or mentioned them on Twitter, theyre going to block you.

I know that because Im blocked by Dan Bongino and I had never, before I was blocked, ever said a word about Dan Bongino on social media, in a video here, or even in my private life, had never uttered his name only to find out on a block. So how does that work if Dan Bongino is part of the rapid response team yet I cant see what he has to say? So Im just screwed because hes got a grudge against me for some reason? Same thing with all of these other little weasels out there on social media, but this isnt about spreading important messages about testing centers. This is about white washing the Trump administrations ridiculous response to this pandemic. Its about making people think that theyre not as inept as they actually are and luckily, since this has been going on since February, the public isnt buying it. They know that weve got two morons, Beavis and Butthead in Pence and Trump running this whole thing. Theyre not happy about it and they know its not working. So no amount of right-wing propaganda at this point, as they watch this virus spread, is going to convince them otherwise.
