Yahoo News Sean Spicer Had A Debate Idea For Donald Trump. It Did Not Go Well.
Sean Spicer suggested on Sunday how former President Donald Trump should kick off the first 2024 presidential debate against President Joe Biden, which CNN is hosting in Atlanta on Thursday.
The presumptive GOP presidential nominee should start “by yielding his time to Biden with a simple question,” Trump’s first White House press secretary-turned-“Dancing With the Stars” contestant wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
And that question?
“Can you name every member of your cabinet,” wrote Spicer, parroting the right-wing narrative that Biden is in cognitive decline and therefore unfit to return to the White House.
Trump should start Thursdays debate by yielding his time to Biden with a simple question:
Can you name every member of your cabinet— Sean Spicer (@seanspicer) June 23, 2024
Critics reminded Spicer, who has regularly defended Trump’s lies (including that whopper about the inauguration crowd size), of the criticism Trump has received from former members of his own Cabinet, including his own vice president, Mike Pence.
Every member in Biden's cabinet endorses him. Can't say the same for Trump.

I’m not sure Donald could name every member of his immediate family https://t.co/zLwcWZGdmi

You were fired and they all made fun of you. Think insulting Biden will win you back? I don't.

Biden should respond by asking Trump to name all of the Trump cabinet officers who have declined to support his return to the White House. https://t.co/suIPxMM9TY

That’s hilarious. Can Trump name the 44 of his Cabinet members that now say they won’t support him for President again? I mean he fired you and you’re still kissing his ass. What does that say about you, Sean?
I know what it says.— Fred Wellman (@FPWellman) June 23, 2024
Maybe the guy who lied about Trump’s inauguration crowd, was ridiculed by SNL, and supports the first former POTUS to sit for an interview with a probation officer should just STFU. https://t.co/a3gtjDIEWq

President Biden should start Thursday's debate by yielding his time to Donald Trump with a simple question:
Can you name 5 out of the Ten Commandments that you say you “love” so much? https://t.co/oXiXsO3qXr— Republicans against Trump (@RpsAgainstTrump) June 23, 2024
@JoeBiden should ask @realDonaldTrump how many of his 44 former Cabinet and senior staffers are supporting him in 2024. https://t.co/CNENKHZ0E9

Can you remember every lie you told for Trump? Because there are vids we can check.

Can Trump name all the members of his cabinet who’ve called him a dangerously unfit idiot? We’ll give him time on that. It’s a long list. https://t.co/dljNMi05ow

An ignorant tweet from a human laughingstock.

What’s wrong with you, Sean? Seriously. You’re like a frat boy gone to seed.
You could be doing so much better if you actually decided to grow.— MelissaJPeltier (@MelissaJPeltier) June 24, 2024
Biden should ask Trump, “Who is Ronny Johnson?”

40 out of 44 of Trump’s previous staff will not endorse him for POTUS. If it were me, I’d ask Trump how many of his advisors are felons and to name them. It’s no small number.

Guaranteed he wouldn't say one of them is "Tim Apple". Project much?

40 of 44 of Trumps former cabinet say they won’t vote for him. This includes Trump VP Mike Pence. What does it say when your own VP won’t vote for you?🤦♂️

Ha Ha Ha, Trump can't even name all his family members.
— Badd Company (@BaddCompani) June 23, 2024
And then Biden should ask Trump: "Can you name any of your grandchildren?"

I 100% assure you he can.
I also 100% assure you Trump can't.— Machine Pun Kelly 🇺🇦 (@KellyScaletta) June 23, 2024
