Spicer quits

[Ben1]

...less fun

 

[kallipolis]

Long expected. Long overdue. Trump must be celebrating.

I'm so terribly sorry...for Melissa McCarthy

 

[frankfrank]

Now get that shill Huckabee-Sanders out of there...

I'm so terribly sorry...for Melissa McCarthy

But Hillbilly Huckabee is also a goldmine for satire.

Hopefully Spicer will leak his guts out to the press now.

Or turn state's evidence.

 

[eastofeden]

Another float in the parade from hell has passed by.....

I do hope Spicer gets a nice penthouse in Moscow for his troubles....fair is fair...

Is Sessions next?

 

[DantheManFL]

I lost a bet, I thought Spicer would only make it a month.

 

[cityboy-stl]

Is Sessions next?

I think Sessions is hanging on anticipating President Pence.

 

[eddielee]

I always thought Spicer was close to OD'ing. Trying to make Trump's b.s. look good day after day has to grate the nerves. I understand that dear Huckabee-Sanders has a new gimmick. She will now appear in a puff of red smoke, dressed like a witch, and cackling.

I believe your comment is right on the money. I think potus is a bit swamped.

 

[frankfrank]

Is Sessions next?

I certainly hope so.

He has just promised to greatly beef up civil asset forfeiture laws, which gives the government the incentive to STEAL your wealth by alleging that your PROPERTY is guilty if committing drug crimes, etc. Only an allegation is necessary; there need not even be any arrest, hearing, or indictment of anything. Local crooked cops can "conveniently" "suspect" that you MIGHT have sold a little bit of a plant or something, and they can come in and steal your vehicle, your bank accounts, and whatever the fuck they want.

I remember a news item in the late 1980s that a tenant was busted dealing small-time drugs out of a unit in an apartment complex, and the government came in, seized the entire apartment complex, and threw everybody out onto the streets. Another news item around the same time talked about somebody who rented a small private plane from an aviation company in Peoria IL and he used the plane to take drugs to Las Vegas, and he was busted - and the Feds seized the entire aviation company from its owner.

In other words, if you're a landlord or you rent out property, YOU are responsible for what somebody else does with your property.

So Spicey is blaming the media for his exit.


ooohhhhh they were so mean to me.


Taking no responsibility for his own bizarre and pitiful performance bullshitting for a boss who undercut him at every turn.

Any sympathy I had for Spicer evaporated when I read about his rant on Hannity.

 

[rareboy]

His successor apparently believes that the earth and humna history is only 5500 years old.

Mr. Scaramucci gained infamy near the beginning of the Trump administration due to his public positions on scientific matters. While speaking to Chris Cuomo of CNN, Mr. Scaramucci claimed the earth was 5,500 years old:

Another putz.

 

[Stardreamer]

I listened to a bit of Scaramucci's question and answer session and decided he has the talent for the job. He definitely has the ability to make long, detailed statements that manage to sound right but does not answer the question. A required trait in any professional politico. But he will face the same problem that Spicer did, his boss doesn't have that talent. Oh, he manages to avoid answering the question but his answers are short and simple and most critically random which completely undermines his staff's efforts to put out a coherent message.

I'm wondering about the possibility of Trump firing or forcing Sessions to resign next month and filling his spot with a recess appointment who will not be recused from the RU matter

...who will then fire Mueller

 

[ballcaphair]

Let us pray.

I think Sessions is hanging on anticipating President Pence.

...and President Pence is scarier to me than Trump....

....plausible scenario....you are probably right.....
