3) The time Spicer told a senior White House correspondent "stop shaking your head"- During a press briefing in late March Spicer was asked by April Ryan, an American Urban Radio Networks correspondent, how Trump's administration intended to repair its image.The press secretary was clearly not pleased with the question, and snapped at the reporter, telling her: "Stop shaking your head."He then accused Ryan of having an agenda she wanted to push. "April, hold on, it seems like you're hell-bent on trying to make sure that whatever image you want to tell about this White House stays," he said and followed with: "I'm sorry, please stop shaking your head again."His verbal assault on Ryan was received with alarm by many. Speaking in defense of Ryan, former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton addressed what she termed the unfair belittling of a journalist and a "grown woman."Holding a speech at a conference for the Professional Business Women of California, Clinton said: "April Ryan, a respected journalist with unrivaled integrity, was doing her job... in the White House press room, and she was patronized and cut off trying to ask a question."Hey @SeanSpicer have you pissed off your European allies again today? #SpicerFacts #MAGA #Obamacare pic.twitter.com/CHLKfNMrJ2

4) The time Spicer was not willing to accept the reality of the travel ban- Trump's travel ban, which was initially issued in January, restricted people from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the US.Reporters could not help from rolling their eyes when Spicer said that the executive order was not a "travel ban," even though the president had used the word "ban" when referring to it on multiple occasions. When he was called out on that, the press secretary said: "He's using the words that the media is using." Another case of #SpicerFacts?5) The time Spicer misunderstood Twitter. And English- In February, spoof news site The Onion posted a tweet on their official handle that read: "@SeanSpicer's role in the Trump administration will be to provide the American public with robust and clearly articulated misinformation."Spicer seemed to have not read the tweet carefully, or heard of the grossly popular website, because he retweeted their tweet and wrote, to the amusement of many Twitter users: "You nailed it. Period!""Stop shaking your head again," Spicer lectures @AprilDRyan, who is a grown woman.
