    @SquareTableTalk @YouTube So your problem is a press secretary using a phrase repeatedly? A phrase meaning "I'll look into that and have more to say later? " Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here, intellectually, mate. Adults don't live in a world of absolute certainty and slogans. Just MAGA.
