Trump has his Cabinet take turns showering him with praise

Have you ever seen anything so absurdly servile in your life? Well, maybe in North Korea.
Is this North Korea ?
quote:
President Donald Trump invited his top employees to shower him with compliments on Monday. They happily obliged, one-by-one, on live television.
During a Cabinet meeting at the White House, the president touted the “record-setting pace” of his legislative agenda and claimed “never has there been a president, with few exceptions” who has accomplished more while in office.
Trump then went around the table and called on each official to deliver brief remarks, beginning with Vice President Mike Pence. The bizarre scene that ensued resembled something out of North Korea, as each Cabinet official attempted to outdo one another with nice statements about their boss.
“It’s the greatest privilege of my life to serve as vice president to a president who is keeping his word to the American people, and assembling a team that’s bringing real change, real prosperity, real strength back to our nation,” Pence said.
Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao touted the success of “Infrastructure Week,” noting that “hundreds and hundreds of people were so thrilled” by the president’s visit to the Department of Transportation last week.
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, who has publicly broken with her boss on a number of issues, hailed Trump’s message to the world as transformational and called it a “new day” at the U.N.
“I think the international community knows we’re back,” she added.
“Thank you,” Trump responded. “It’s true.”
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer apologized for the delay in his confirmation to the post.
“First of all, I want to apologize for being late for work. For four months, I got bogged down in the swamp that you want to drain,” he said, to laughter in the room.
Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue touted his recent trip to rural America.
“While we are bragging about international travel I just got back from Mississippi and they like you there,” he said, after others in the room mentioned traveling abroad.
White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, who appears to be under constant threat of losing his job, thanked the president for “the opportunity and blessing to serve your agenda.”
CIA Director Mike Pompeo, however, took a pass by taking a shot at the president’s favorite punching bag: the press.
“In the finest tradition of the CIA, I’m not gonna say a damn thing in front of the media,” he said, garnering a round of laughter.
Trump then ended the public portion of the meeting by thanking reporters and photographers who were there, some of whom shouted questions about former FBI Director James Comey. The president did not respond, however, and White House aides ushered the press out of the room.

BS. Was nothing more than Cabinet Secretary's giving progress reports on Depts. Get your shite straight.

The whole thing was a freaking photo op. Did you expect Pence to be like, "Thank you Mr. President, now, let's discuss the latest happenings in Iran. Overnight, special ops detected..."

The histrionics and hyperbole from the left is getting out of control. North Korea? Really?
Posted on 6/12/17 at 9:59 pm to Toddy

Doesn't sound like they felt threatened or that he even asked them to praise him...but they gave him praise on their own will.
Do you understand being cordial and complimenting people to be nice? I knew the left was pretty nasty and un-mannered resorting to pure insults as a form of "argument", but you really show a complete lack of understanding on these things. Did you grow up in pig slop? Who was your bully? You should confront him.
