Nunes, Trump & GOP screwed up, twice. They released their BIG HUGE memo on Super Bowl Weekend

1. They fucked up.
This was their big move.
They released it the weekend when the only things most of America cares about is food/party prep, office pools, and point spreads.
They should have waited another week but instead they went up against the biggest media event of the year.

2. AND, most importantly, Trump isn't even getting interviewed on TV pre-game Super Bowl, like Obama or Bush, because he's a such "norms breaker."
So now he can't even go on world-wide TV, biggest audience of the year, to spout his bullshit and lies to support their actions.
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
They fucked up, big time.
That's a huge screw up for them now.
All because Trump can't handle a major network that's not Fox News interviewing him one on one.
HUUUUUGE PR LOSS!
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Instead of everyone spending the weekend talking about how embarrassing the memo is, they'll be talking about the Super Bowl.

The purpose of the memo is so that Fox can say "There is a very damaging memo" for months. They know that their viewers aren't going to dig any deeper into it, and certainly aren't going to bother actually reading the memo let alone think critically about what is in it.

So better to hype it up, release it when no one is paying attention, and then spend the next few months pretending that the actual memo didn't sink like a lead balloon.

1) They might want the big weekend to cover other actions and to cover responses. Firing someone for instance.

2) He has his priorities and is headed to Florida for golf and perhaps some secret meetings with his controllers. He does so badly in those interviews that it would be a worse f**k up to do an interview.

That said, I think this memo is not having the impact they want.

(WFLA) — You’ve got to be kitten me right meow! Can you handle the cuteness?

America’s most adorable 4-legged fur balls will come together to paw the pigskin on Feb. 4.

The cuddly contenders are ready to purrr their way to victory during Hallmark Channel’s feline Super Bowl celebration.

Cat fanatics can tune in to the meowing match-up for the 2018 Kitten Bowl. And its all for a great cause. Every one of the baby kitties will be available for adoption.

The tiny felines will hopefully join the 13,000 other pets who found homes thanks to the Kitten Bowl and its adoption events.

Don’t forget to share your purrr-fect photos from your Kitten Bowl watch party come Sunday.
