    "I don't think President-elect Trump wants to meddle with Medicare or Social Security," Priebus told CBS's "Face The Nation" on Sunday. "He made a promise in the campaign that that was something that he didn't want to do."

    He doesn't fucking know, any more than the rest of us, until the morning Twitler delivery plops in his in-box.

  3. "She was given the benefit of the doubt here constantly," Conway said on CNN, referring to Hillary Clinton.

    [That is complete bullshit]
