Revolving Door by Nancy OhanianThe Trump White Mad House is still a chaotic mess, in complete turmoil orchestrated my the fool Putin placed there. Supposedly, at least according to the Wall Street Journal John Kelly is staying on-- for now-- as chief of staff. H.R.
Every time I go out recently I wonder who Trump will fire by the time I get back home. And he's been hiring really bad ones again. Remember The Mooch? That bad. People he saw on TV, like the coke addict who took Gary Cohn's place and it looks like Pete Hegseth from Fox will be replacing Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin. Maggie Haberman reported in yesterday's NY Times that Trump's reveling in keep everyone off-kilter.
This morning's big political kickoff conversation for the week was set by reporters Burgess Everett and Elana Schor at Politico: The 'attention-deficit-disorder' Congress. Short version: "Donald Trump's fondness for flitting from one topic to another is making it hard for lawmakers to focus." Louisiana Republican John Kennedy came right out and called it "attention deficit disorder" and Susan Collins (R-ME) said "It's unbelievable to me. The attention span just seems to be...
Chris Whipple, author of The Gatekeepers: How the White House Chiefs of Staff Define Every Presidency, spoke with Chris Riback about how Donald Trump’s White House compares to others. Short version: "the most dysfunctional White House in history." Maybe Señor Trumpanzee listened to it and took it to heart because Gabe Sherman reported Friday in Vanity Fair that Trump wants a clean reset and get a whole new White House staff, one that is 100% MAGA.
Trump isn't a politician; he's an entertainer and a grifter. And he seems to have believed he could bullshit his way through a presidency with a three-ring circus or, in today's parlance, a reality TV show. But peopler wising up. A new Morning Consult poll released by Politico has Señor Trumpanzee 8 points behind a generic Democratic candidate, 44 percent to 36 percent, with an astonishing 19% undecided. And Trump being in the dump is largely due to women voters.-- and independents.
The big news late yesterday was a NY Times report that Kushner-in-law’s solicited and accepted a $184 million bribe (called "a loan" in naive circles) for his family firm from Apollo Global Management after founder Joshua Harris made “regular” visits to the White House.
-by NoahWith a majority of Americans, even some of those who had been conned by Señor Trumpanzee, now finally starting to catch on to just how dangerously severely mentally ill the Faux President is, and even a handful of people from his own party finally speaking the truth that the emperor has no clothes, I thought this cartoon fits for today.
Many of the multimillionaires and billionaires who fund Republican elections are fuming. The Trump Regime is a worse 3-ring circus than anyone ever expected-- even those who knew it would probably be a mess. Yesterday they were reading headlines about Jeff Sessions issuing new guidelines for going to war with the LGBT community again.
-by NoahThe Mooch is gone. Well, he’s at least gone from his temp job at America’s number one show “Asylum White House”. He’s Fired! Maybe he should have pleaded that “it was just locker room talk.”Moochie only lasted 10 days, but, hey, what a fab 10 days it was! Now, he’s been escorted out the gate.
Here Politico publishes this really good report on A Trumpanzee Sans Political Party when the news crashes down on all of our heads that General Kelly forced Trumpy-the-Clown to fire his soul-mate, alter-ego and consiglieri-for-a-week-- better than Queen For A Day--
