I've been out of the country with no access to news since July 21. I'm thankful I missed the reign of "The Mooch" who seems to be the lowest kind of sleazeball.
Thanks, General Kelly!

No, doc, he is a Republican.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Stop berating the man on Twitter and replace him already. I feel like I'm watching a soap opera.

Ha! You are talking about the man who has been playing chess while the GDCs are still trying to chew on the checkerboard. I suspect Priebus was hired to show a good faith effort to work with the GOP and for his rumored ability to get things done. When said ability was only rumored he was history. Rather than fire him personally, the President hired "The Mooch" to take care of it. Heck, for all we know the whole crude language and "I only report to the President." thing may have been pre-planned to give the excuse to get him out once he accomplished the job he was hired to do. I have no idea, but I have faith in our Commander in Chief staying at least three steps ahead of the GDCs while he works on the People's business.

This entire ordeal is becoming a distraction. I'm hoping for a stable period of time where things can actually get done, as opposed to feeding the media fish flakes they try to turn into large chunks of chum in the water.

Appoint a few good people, and get to work on deregulating the nonsense, draining the career bottom feeding politicians sucking dry the .gov tit, and make life better for us all. That was why we voted for him.

Stop with the distractions, and get to cleaning house on the Washington Establishment, not your own cabinet.

There is a Tax code to simplify, there is healthcare to overhaul, there is a military to strengthen, there are multiple rouge states (North Korea, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Syria (both sides) to bring in line, and ISIS to continue to defeat. There will most likely be another SCOTUS vacancy to fill, god willing, that we should prepare for in the next few years, and we need to make damn sure the Senate is controlled then.

Internal distractions divide us. Inner circle distractions make those greater.

Pick someone good, and then let them do their damn job.

Stop tweeting insults about your own appointments and let them do their jobs... You put them there... Let them do it.

Why must we always make a firing squad in the form of a circle....





Strive to live your life so when you wake up in the morning and your feet hit the floor, the devil says "Oh crap, he's up."

With Mattis and Kelly now both in the Cabinet, what do you think of my theory that the "soap opera" is just a distraction and smoke screen for a transition to a "war-time cabinet", in preparation for removing Fatboy Kim ?

I've been reading (who knows how true it is though) that Mooch immediately began mouthing off to Kelly about how HE reports directly to the Prez, basically dissing him from the jump and Kelly was like:

YOU'RE OUTTA HERE!!!

I think getting rid of the Mooch was awesome. Now if only the Trump Kids, and the Son in Law, would just go back to running Trumps companies, and stay the hell out of the White House! I hope Gen. Kelly has the balls to make "everyone" report directly to him. That's the only way it will work.

I, too, had that thought.
