US Politics, March 2018: Why do people leave the White House for good?

It's like Trump decided after a year that maybe Trump should just be Trump and say, well, Trump it. If we're all Trumped anyway then it probably doesn't matter what the Trump Trump does. Just keep on Trumpin'.

fyi this admin has been a terrifying disaster since day 1 in case you missed it

it has been, but i didn't die yet and i'm used to it now

we haven't had major foreign conflagrations tho which now appear to be in the works

maybe the rest of the world will feel sorry for us and just wait for this to pass before starting shit in earnest?

why are y'all complicating my students' reporting?

Yeah this admin has been as awful as expected from day one

Hope we get invaded

Chuck Norris baby

so let's say Trump dies choking on one of KFC's famous bowls.

the networks need to cut in to report the death of the President

what's the headline, how "somber" is the reporting, and what music is playing in the background

hey i've got about half a year of severance pay to drink through b4 i can die, you Gloomy Guses

All Star of course

if some teen shot trump dead next week there'd be statues by october

my scenario involved chicken

He would be described as a "true American original" or something like that

Was McMaster happy in that role. I thought one reason he took it was because he was duty bound as a serving officer to obey the President's command in being placed there. & he didn't have the ability to say no that other potential candidates had.

Does being fired from this Whitehouse actually look better on your CV anyway? Though would probably be the earlier teh better both in one's tenure and the regiume.

if some teen shot trump dead next week there'd be statues by october

would happily contribute to a kickstarter for the #hero #teen who assassinated trump

er, for a statue for the #hero etc

really want a KFC now

would happily contribute to a kickstarter for the #hero #teen who assassinated trump

― in conclusion, it is good to peel the sheeps (bizarro gazzara),

uh you might be careful about posting such things. You don't want Don, Jr. to sic Secret Service on you, or, worse, his small Canines of Doom.

don jr's more of a gofundme kinda guy huh

by all means let's turn into a murder-by-death succession nation, tot fine solution

How valid are these suggestions that the divorce is some underhand subterfuge to protect assets for the future?

today it's gonna be leave Don Jr. alone, tomorrow it's gonna be how the hell did we overlook Don Jr. transferring everything to his wife while the feds seized all his assets

Eh divorce is good for the kids when it’s that or have parents hating each other. Hooray for divorce.

im gonna occams razor this shit and say don jr is probably legitimately pissing his wife off bc of his defense of daddy and being head of trump org.

On the speculation that multiple cabinet and high level White House officials are all in danger of losing their jobs, a source close to White House: “Everyone loves a season finale.” Per @Acosta reporting

— Kristin Donnelly (@kristindonnelly) March 16, 2018

who could this source be. can anyone think of a person who treats the highest levels of government like a reality teevee show

by all means let's turn into a murder-by-death succession nation, tot fine solution

the roman empire didn't turn to murder as a succession route because they thought it was fun, it was because all of their institutions had failed

all of our institutions have failed. it doesn't matter what happens any more, we're completely fucked.

at least the roman empire had lead poisoning to explain why their citizens got dumber, what's america's excuse

I have that same thought all the time.

The Apprentice is an American reality television program that judges the business skills of a group of contestants. It has run in various formats across fifteen seasons since January 2004 on NBC.

xxp the internet

Still lead, hangover from gasoline in them boomers.xp

But yes, the internet is probably a large contributor to our stupidity. Imagine if in previous decades every idiot with an opinion was given free access to a printing press through which they disseminate all of their ill-considered ponderings, a constant flow of noise subsuming all voices of reason and temperance and seemingly justified by nothing more than the fact of their transcription. We could've hastened this apocalypse long ago if it weren't for the glacial pace of technological progress.

that is the history of print tbh, it's more that the reach and the audience have dramatically increased

portable electronic devices, natch

xpost It's true. But like that thing where I can slap down some random verbiage between sips of coffee without exerting any more effort than what it takes to move my fingers across the keyboard and, pow, it's just out there for the entire world to read for as long as the internet continues to exist...that's some powerful shit to drop into the hands of the majority of people on earth.

What Morbs says, yes.

Breaking Wind from CNN! Andy McCabe offered deal for lying to FBI and won’t get pension but will get passage in overhead bin on United flight to Oakland to work for scofflaw mayor.

hmmm...might want to rethink this dead dog joke, Governor Huckabee

Don't know why Huck feels it necessary to constantly underscore the common wisdom that the GOP's sense of 'humor' is DOA.

he's no andy borowitz

Touche.
