I posted this like 4 months ago, but wasn't the likely scenario that his act weighs thin on everyone who wasn't family really soon? That seems to always be the case in his life, why would this be any different?

I love how she always has some troll smart ass remark to start. As she walks in "slow news day?" **** off.

There must be some deplorable better at, literally, speaking than Sanders.
07-21-2017 , 02:26 PM
I assume that's Scaramucci there lurking at the side? Yep.

I love the idea that Trump replaced Spicey with Scaramucci because he wanted a better-looking spokesman.

Sanders named permanent press secretary.

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.

Never seen any wide shots of her. Does she even wear shoes?

No way that "eat an elephant" quote is going to take a weird turn on the internet
07-21-2017 , 02:36 PM
Ew. Why the **** does he keep saying he loves the president. Has anybody here ever said that about their boss?
07-21-2017 , 02:37 PM
This guy seems sane? What am I missing?
07-21-2017 , 02:40 PM
I don't know about sane, but he's way more comfortable at the podium than Spicey or Sanders.

I spoke too soon. He quickly broke out the dear leader stories about his incredible sports ability.

The Mooch is as big of a scam artist as there is. Guy is one of the all-time most relentless self-promoters without anything to back it up in history.

It's not a loophole. Also, the "AG" in this context would be Rosenstein, as Sessions is recused.
Ok, i interpreted by its own choice or by recommendation of the AG to imply that the AG can end it even if its against their choice.

And why can't Sessions just unrecuse himself if he wants to? Like if he didn't recuse himself in the first place, it seems like the only way to prevent him from overseeing the people investigating would be for the president to fire him or Congress to impeach him. I don't see how him saying at one point that he was recusing himself changes that.

How does he get the job if Bannon and Priebus dislike him? Did Trump see him on Fox and call Hannity to send him over?
