Smart and beautiful, she's got the whole country talking about her. Good publicity stunt.

 

Also, watching the libs go nuts over it is like icing on the money-cake.

Flynn fucked up.

Not sure if I said it out loud or not, but I was thinking that Trump's administration would be one of high turnover. Knowing when to fire people (that is, earlier, not later) is an important skill in business, and we know Trump knows this. That's one reason why all the lamentations of the women about Trump's cabinet fell on deaf ears with me. If they really are so bad for Trump and his goals, they'll get fired. If they're not bad for Trump and his goals, and just bad for the Dems and their goals... Well, you brought this on yourselves, sorry.

Well it was certainly Flynn's second strike. We had the general's idiot son who got fired from the transition team back in December who got axed for spreading some stupid story about pizza. And now Flynn has made VP Pence look bad by getting caught in a "lie".

Of course he was going to get shit-canned.

This is only a story that really matters to the middle school cafeteria social hierarchy that is the DC Beltway establishment and will be soon forgotten.

Flynn was a member of the Cruzist Anti-American Military Organization, he shall soon be liquidated.

Yeah Trump with say something the Media will freak out about and this will all be old news. 

[Donward]

It looks like Trump is sticking with the retired Lt. General strategy, picking Keith Kellogg as his new (acting) National Security Advisor.

Those are construction markings left by a surveyor or contractor.

But do we know the political leanings of the surveyor? Better safe than sorry.

He probably voted for Trump!

Trump still has the support of the electorate:

Opinion polls about Trump are still a thing after what happened last November?

As someone said earlier, it's like a dog returning to eat its own vomit...

This makes it seem like Steve Bannon is best thing that could happen to the US:

Pro capitalism but anti crony capitalism?

Anti wall street gambling capitalism?

Pro massive infrastructure spending?

Skeptical of unthinking treaty-ism?

All of these sound like pretty solid stances, frankly.

[Scolopax]

Because we needed it, a political drama about the 2016 election is in the works.  Even better, the next season of the American Horror Story series will be focusing on the election as well. 

[EnsignExpendable]

Shit, might as well make the next season of Game of Thrones be election themed.

Well, the 2016 election and Game of Thrones both focused a disproportionate amount of time on wieners...

I really want to know where this idea that Trump is Bannon's unwitting pawn comes from. Maybe from Bannon?

[Jeeps_Guns_Tanks]

Nah, I think it's just what the left wants to be true, so they believe.   They are and the media is wrong just like they were on his campaign. 

[Walter_Sobchak]

"a shit sandwich"

Also, what the hell is Jill Stein talking about?  Regardless of how you stand on Betsy DeVos, I think we can all agree that the Dems fought pretty hard against her nomination.  They all voted in unison against it, even getting two Repub senators to cross over.

What a way to ruin a great show. 

[Sturgeon]

So the Day Without Immigrants protest apparently backfired horribly and a bunch of people got fired.

Who could have seen this coming? I ask entirely seriously and without hint of sarcasm.

[Donward]

A General Strike was also called for across the nation on Friday, two days ago.

I'm sure everyone felt the repercussions.

Or would have if the Left actually had anybody who did meaningful labor.
