This is bullshite. We needed someone like Mooch to fight the media. I thought we finally got rid of the establishment clowns in the White House. Only to be replaced by another establishment clown.

Then the issue is when competent people are finally in place, is the prevailing culture too chaotic to keep them in place?


good question. We shall see. Mattis has managed to stay out of the worst of it.

But I don't think Kelly can do that as CoS. I think they either leave or are ineffective.

I guess I should have been more specific. Some of his cabinet members have been competent choices, but they can be removed from much of the day-to-day shenanigans.

Kelly is going to be one tasked with controlling that, although I guess a general should be more prepares to handle that than most.

Trump went all in on HC.

no he didn't. He doubled down on stupid, but he barely made a case for it. And didn't wheel and deal on it, he made threats!

I would be really surprised if they don't get some sort of tax cut through. But tax reform is a non starter. So is infrastructure.

But the bottom is close to falling out. I think if the border wall doesn't get a token start by 2018, Rs are fricked.

Infrastructure, at least in theory, could be doable because there'd be at least a few dems willing to vote for it.

I actually think someone like Mr Penis is more qualified to do that than a general. Penis was used to a chaotic political environment, with no real structure. A general? Probably used to a lot more structure.

A general probably scares the shite out of the lackey's though.

Should be fun to watch.

The President ran on being competent and has shown himself to be anything but so far. The legislative dream is still alive but he needs to get his head out his arse. We do him no favors by acting happy with the job performance.


Thank you for being a Trump voter instead of a Trumpsucking Trumpkin. Its refreshing to see around here.

Mattis has become the defacto Commander in Chief due to clueless Trump delegating everything to him. Not that I'm saying that's a bad thing but he has less of a political roll than other White House staffers.
