With Spicer's resignation, Melissa McCarthy goes back to being completely unfunny.

I don't know how to pronounce that last name, but from the looks of it, one would be unable to say it without sounding like Professor Frink.

No book deal. He has everyone sign nondisclosure agreements. They can't say anything disparaging about him or reveal anything confidential.

Hopefully that nazi shithead Sessions is next to go. He's apparently on the outs with Trump over not disclosing his involvement in Russian shenanigans before being confirmed as AG. Unfortunately, he's also Bannon's closest compadre in the Cabinet. So Bannon's prolly going to go to the mat for Sessions. which Trump isn't likely to let Bannon walk over firing Sessions.


This is encouraging:

Maybe Trump will do with Bannon what Obama did with Axelrod--exile him from DC to work on the re-election campaign.

Time for a Primary Colors styled book with an anonymous author :wink:

I just wonder if Alec Baldwin will play him in the movie, or if it will include golden shower flashbacks?

Reince should have long ago. But he's a "Party Man"so, to expect anything reasonable is foolish.

Tax Reform! Cut Medicaid & Public Education! Ignore money laundering by MANY!

yes, but to be honest, that's not a bad thing. I'll take an ineffective government that can't get anything done over one that continues to usurp and grow its power.

As a Libertarian, a POTUS who can't get anything passed through Congress is great.

They had the fat chick cast member doing Huckabee Sanders last season... Will they be authentic and have the impersonation complete with a lady eye?

It's going to be fun when these guys find out the golden parachute they thought awaited them in the private sector is not available to those tainted by this presidency

This is exactly what anyone's Presidency would look like if you scrutinized and criticized it this much.

This implies that there are positive things that Trump has done that are being ignored. List those out, please.
