sean spicer, a total asshole, wanted a minifridge so he wouldn’t have to drag his re-animated corpse to the cafeteria and be seen by all the people that openly mock & despise him on a daily basis, so he sent one of his assistants to go take a minifridge from an office of junior staff at the white house

and those staffers told Spicer’s messenger to go fuck himself, that’s their fridge and they actually need it because they don’t get meals at the cafeteria like spicer does

so, instead of being a reasonable human being and ordering a new one off Amazon, that asshole personally himself went to the officer at night after everyone left and stole the fridge, carrying it back to his office in the white house with his own hands

like that’s the perfect story to totally encapsulate what a complete and total joke not only this current administration is, but that the very bedrock institutions of American democracy are

it’s literally a fucking joke, they couldn’t write something as ludicrous as this on fucking Veep

I legitimately thought this was some ridiculous-but-aptly-metaphorical parody from the Onion that people on the internet hadn’t bothered to fact-check, but no. Dozens of mainstream news outlets have covered this. The fucking WSJ is the one that apparently first covered it.

Sean Spicer is a very rich man. How rich nobody knows exactly, but for starters he pulls down nearly 200k a year just from his WH position. He also happens to own SEVERAL million dollars worth of real-estate, much of which he rents out. Motherfucker could have just bought a minifridge. Shit, he could have given one of his staffers a few hundred bucks to buy one from a goddamned store and install it.

But no. He decided to try and bully a bunch of junior staffers into giving him theirs, which they needed quite a bit more than he did, and when that failed, he straight up fucking stole it from them. At night. And personally carried it back to his office. Asshole STAYED LATE AT WORK and PHYSICALLY EXERTED HIMSELF just to be petty and vindictive. He actively WENT OUT OF HIS WAY to be a shitty person.

And like, I don’t want to over-generalize here, but this seems perfectly emblematic of the current mindset of the GOP; both the actual elected officials and the dipshits who voted them into power. These are people who are perfectly willing to hurt themselves to get something they don’t even need just because it will annoy or harm people they don’t like. These narcisistic shitfucks would literally drop a cinderblock on their own shriveled dicks if they thought it might mildly inconvenience a liberal.

In case anyone wanted sources, I pulled these off a quick Google search:

“Sean Spicer allegedly swiped a mini-fridge from an office of junior staffers in the dark,” BusinessInsider.com, published July 22, 2017, link here.

“Sean Spicer stole a mini-fridge from White House staff,” IBTimes.co.UK, published July 22, 2017, link here.

“Sean Spicer was ‘spotted stealing a mini-fridge from junior White House staff’,” Independent.co.UK, published July 22, 2017, link here.

The best twist to this epic, I think, is that Kal Penn, the actor who played Kumar in Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle, formerly worked as a White House employee, and personally bought, with his own money, a mini-fridge, that he left behind when he left, and had a great Twitter thread where he was like THAT ASSHOLE WAS IT MINE???
