Sean Spicer says in front of the press that Hitler did not use chemical weapons

In an attempt to criticize Bashar al-Assad, Sean Spicer said in his press briefing today that even Hitler did not use chemical weapons.

Which is false, of course. Hitler used gas chambers to commit genocide against Jewish people.

This is exactly what Spicer said:

“We didn’t use chemical weapons in World War II. You know, you had someone as despicable as Hitler who didn’t even sink to using chemical weapons.”

So according to Spicer, the gas chamber was not a weapon.

When the press caught Spicer basically denying the gas chambers, this was his response according to The New York Times:

“I think when you come to sarin gas, he was not using the gas on his own people the same way that Assad is doing,” Mr. Spicer said, and mentioned “Holocaust centers,” apparently referring to Nazi death camps.

Holocaust centers? What the FUCK is Sean Spicer talking about?

As per the not using gas on his own people, Hitler did send german Jews to concentration camps. And many were killed in the gas chambers.

So again; what the FUCK is Sean Spicer talking about?

By the way: Spicer tried to clarify his statement about Hitler four times after the press briefing. But the Anne Frank Center didn't buy it and asked for his resignation:

I don't know if Spicer said what he said out of racism or out of ignorance, or out of studipity (or all of the above), but I do hope he doesn't lose his job. He's incredibly helpful in sinking the Trump administration and in convince people to vote Trump out of office and he doesn't even know it.
