Well… can’t say it hasn’t been an interesting show.
Trump got tired of Reince Priebus. Not a big surprise, I mean, Reince isn’t a billionaire and he’s not family. Probably a decent sycophant, but that’s only good for so long.
Remember when the tape came out where Trump was bragging — bragging! — that he could grab women by the pussy and they’d just let him? Yeah. The Republican party wasn’t happy, and Trump needed them to win. So he hired Priebus — a GOP insider — and Priebus cleaned up after him.
So once Trump won the election, Priebus had outlived his usefulness. Plus, he was almost a grownup, which seems to frighten Trump. So Trump looked him in the eye and fired him.
Ha! Had you going, didn’t I? Of course Trump didn’t actually fire Priebus. Trump’s way too much of a coward for that. Trump hired Joe Piscopo to talk smack about him day and night.
Or was it Joe Pesci? I get those two confused.
Wait. I think Trump hired Anthony Scaramucci. No, really. Cray, right? Trump managed to hire another shady, ethically challenged, ex-Goldman-Sachs goon. (Nice swamp you got there. Shame if something were to, ya know, happen to it.) So Trump is draining the swamp, kinda, although the drain runs from Wall Street into the White House.
So Trump hired Scaramucci because if his deep expertise in concise and controlled communication–
Damn. I can never keep a straight face. Of course not. Scaramucci is just another hyper-rich, undereducated, overentitled bully boy like Trump. Think about it. A White House communications director who doesn’t know what ‘On the record’ or ‘classified’ means? Naa. Trump hired Scaramucci ’cause he’s comfy with psychopathic narcissists, because Scaramucci will do what Trump wants (but is too afraid to do himself), and Trump knows Scaramucci won’t challenge him as leader of his school recess gang.
Anyway, Scaramucci is here, making big-hand-gesture threats at the WH podium while he’s waiting for a shady Chinese holding company to pay him hundreds of millions more for his company than it’s worth. Death to leakers! Hate ’em. At the same time as Scaramucci s trying to leak dirt to the press, but with no idea how to do it without getting caught. Peach of a guy.
And yet, somehow it works. He’s driven out Sean Spicer, he’s working on Jeff Sessions, and today he managed to slip a shiv into Priebus, surprising exactly no one. Not bad work for a guy who hasn’t a clue what ‘public documents’ means.
The only people left who aren’t family, in-laws or openly made men are Trump’s team of retired Generals, Rex Tillerson, and evil pixie Jeff Sessions. Sure, Rex Tillerson is dismantling the State Department just the way Putin asked him to, but Trump can’t help undercutting Tillerson every week. And Sessions? Can’t figure it. Sessions is incredibly loyal, and he hates brown people worse that Trump, but Trump’s throwing him under the bus anyway.
So much for the last standing Republican.
And generals. Ah, generals. While Trump likes the idea of generals, the actual people scare him. Maybe they remind him of adults, what do I know? He doesn’t like to listen to them. Or anyone.
Getting more interesting every day.
