You can tell the anxiety is building out there in Deplorable America to see their dreams of the ethno nationalist state start to fade and all they have left is Kushner and the cast of characters from Glengarry Glen Ross.

It's just a bunch of ritual humiliations and dominance plays like from Glengarry Glen Ross than anything truly sinister and unscrupulous like Gordan Gekko. Like I suspect Trump sits down weekly and tells everyone they're fired, they have a week to regain their jobs starting today, and he's adding a little prize to this month's good Fox and Friends press contest. First prize is a Cadillac Eldorado, second prize is a set of steak knives, third prize is your fired.
Then Spicer or someone meekly speaks up to say the policies are weak, the news is weak.
And then Trump tells Spicey to **** off because he drove a Hyundai there.
