I don't understand why anyone would take a job at the white house. You are valued more at McDonalds even if you try to make a union.

Money from the book deals once you are dumped.

feels like Trump is cutting ties with the GOP and just being Trump Island

This is perfect if Rs in Congress just decide to drop all association with him next year. They would get crushed since party voters like Trump a helluva lot more than anyone else in the Republican party.

Scaramucci right now:

Still waiting for him to say, "You're fired." Come on you clown, say it!

New: A source close to now former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus says he resigned privately yesterday

https://twitter.com/jimsciutto/status/891042288243269633

I think I would be scared if this is true.

 

[Dai101]

FTFY

 

[Boney]

More Generals into the mix...

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

Reince deserves no pity, he was a major factor in Trump's success. He knew what he was getting into.

Yep.

Kelly jokes to Trump: Use saber on the press

[Wallach]

Aw, and this was one of his most loyal ballwashing puppies.

 

[Fercho]

So the Mooch is a good guy now? or this is one of those "Alien vs Predator" situations? (Whoever wins... We lose)

 

[skullmuffins]

So probably safe to assume the new Chief of Staff is probably just in a temporary position, and eventually The Mooch is going to rise to that position?

I know reports were that Mooch was angling for the job, but I don't know why Sec. Kelly would give up his position as head of DHS to be CoS for the White House to begin with, much less give up that position to be a temporary CoS.

 

[Piggus]

One of the people who replied to Trump posted this image which is maybe the most amazing quote regarding a book I've ever seen:

That piece of shit book has been delayed many times over the last couple years and basically evolved from "liberals are bad because entitlements" to "liberals are literally Nazis."

The author is fucking nutter.

Why?

He was already there as head of DHS.

What did Stinkles know and when did he know it?! >:|

Mooch is in no way a good guy, but if he manages to somehow kick Bannon out I'll take it.

 

[Xando]

Tweetstorm tomorrow morning is gonna be good

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

The former head of the RNC doesn't even have faith in our president. lol

 

[Turbo Killer]

If this guy and spicy don't give interviews spilling everything about this administration then they have no fucking dignity at all.

 

[Toth]

He's going to make Sessions DHS head, just watch.

This is a scary thought. Who could he switch over to AG and be willing to fire Mueller?

 

[Beer Monkey]

He was already there as head of DHS.

This will increase the net number of generals in cabinet positions though. CoS normally civilian.

 

[jelly]

I really wonder what his head staff do all day, sharpen pencils?

 

[Yen]

There's bound to be a good anagram to be made from his name. Penis burier is close but not enough

 

[Sephzilla]

So are we getting a NYT/WaPo oppo droppo soon?

 

[Mighty Chin]

How had Priebus Fired on their Trump Bingo Card?

All I need now is a Sessions Resigns for BINGO!

 

[mnannola]

I hope the leaks keep coming.

 

[Trojita]

There is a good chance that Sessions will be made DHS head, to "preserve" his "dignity". Session's has been seen to focus on immigration, which the DHS head is also in control of. That would let Trump appoint a new AG, who would then fire Mueller.

 

[cress2000]

Why?

I question the motive.

 

[Volphied]

So is this the start of the war between Trump and the GOP?

Priebus was supposed to "control" Trump's worst behavior. Now Trump will be Trump 24/7. How much is the GOP fucked now?

 

[flkraven]

So does the GOP Civil war begin now? Trump is Iron Man since he's the billionaire, but who's Cap? McCain? Paul Ryan?

 

[Black Republican]

Purge them all i say

 

[Trojita]

Kelly is such a weird fucking pick for Chief of Staff that this came entirely out of left field.

 

[dkeane]

This week has been exhausting. Glad I have a beer in hand. Can't wait for salty weekend Trump tweets.

 

[Shoeless]

Mooch is in no way a good guy, but if he manages to somehow kick Bannon out I'll take it.

It would be hilarious of Bannon got the boot and somehow Giuliani got in. Then the inner circle, including family, is all just a bunch of elite New Yorkers, and Trump supporters will have to claim they always loved the coastal elites and wanted them to take power, not like those libtards who were dumb and always fought for the rustbelt.

 

[Muffin1611]

he's the billionaire

He's not

I dunno, probably

 

[Apdiddy]

Having a general as a Chief of Staff is what you see in dictatorships or a tyrant. Scaramucci and his mountains of cocaine controlling the information and trying to get reporters to give up their sources is also scary.

Mueller better find something and soon before Trump does something that lots of people wonder he would do.

If his base still vote R nothing really changes I suppose? The GOP hate Trump but they'll still work with him to push through evil plans.

With the torrential downpour in DC right now, I imagine Reince is walking out of the West Wing like:

He's not a billionaire. He'd be an orange Iron Man wearing cardboard.

Oh, wasn't Iron Man originally all gold? lol

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Well he's military, so I assume Trump thinks he can run the WH like a military brigade. He's also anti-media, so that's a plus.

It'll probably just move things closer to a fascist regime that conservatives and the GOP are in love with.

 

[Slater]

FFS people Kelly is retired, get the facts straight please

 

[John Rabbit]

I question the motive.

I'm having trouble grasping why Priebus voluntarily resigning scares you.

Moreover "resigning" is often code for "I was going to be fired but they let me quit to save face."
