Spicey cannot catch a break
Updated : Mar 29, 2017, 01:04 PM IST
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has had a very tumultuous relationship with the press and reporters. Twitterverse takes advantage of that and with whiplike witty responses, comes down hard on Spicer.
On Monday when Spicer came out for a press briefing to cover topics like the healthcare vote loss by Republicans, curious case of Russia and Jared Kushner, hate crime definition etc, he didn't pay much attention to one fact. There was something stuck in his teeth.
People watching and attending the briefing were getting more eager to ask questions about the mysterious goo lodged in press secretary's teeth. The burn of curiosity was so intense, even actor Jim Carrey pitched in.
The rotting food in @PressSec Sean Spicer's teeth is distracting and makes it hard to absorb today's WH misinformation. ;^P pic.twitter.com/oPaA0ziGKN

By that time, all bets were off and Twitter field day had begun.
Hypocrisy. Sean Spicer's teeth are absolutely a Sanctuary City for kale and other leafy greens. Sad! #sanctuarycities #PressBriefing pic.twitter.com/H7CY4kz91c

This one was in reference to Spicer talking about the alleged connection between Russia and Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner.

Sean Spicer has spinach in his teeth. Or, as he calls it, “splunbage” pic.twitter.com/E32z7To8hS

"You don't need to chew all that gum," they said. "A little parsley will freshen your breath," they said...#PressBriefing #SpicerTeeth pic.twitter.com/T4lWATbNIa

If spinach is in question, mentioning Popeye is obligatory. Meet Spicey the Sailor Man.

People also started suggesting that this should be part of Melissa McCarthy's Spicer sketches on Saturday Night Live. McCarthy is hosting the show on May 13.
Looks like Melissa McCarthy will be trading in the chewing gum for some fresh greens. #PressBriefing #SpicerTeeth pic.twitter.com/JJeZrlLzC3

Somewhere, @melissamccarthy is practicing a Sean Spicer "food stuck in teeth" sketch...

...I'm already laughing...#PressBriefing
I predict @melissamccarthy will have a big leaf of lettuce hanging from her mouth on the next SNL skit. #spicer

It was only matter of time that a parody account dedicated to Spicer's teeth sprung up.
It was spinach. Period! https://t.co/x019P6qDvX
