[epmode]

You’d think that Trump’s absolute lack of anything approaching loyalty would get the GOP to think twice about their undying support. Nothing is worth this shitshow of an administration.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

More like Reince Postbus am I right?

Reince Underthebus

 

[kris.]

i can't stop laughing

 

[Staccat0]

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

fuck fuck fuck

 

[thecouncil]

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:

Yeah, Dinesh D'Souza is a real shithead. Go visit his Twitter for some laughs. Dude has been on a serious bend lately with all his garbage thoughts like "The Democrats started the KKK and are the real racists" and "Inner cities are the modern plantation for Democratic leadership".

Anyway, this administration is a mess. 6 months in and how many higher ups have been fired / resigned / disgraced?

 

[Sectorseven]

So who's the Homeland Security Director now?

Postmaster General

 

[oti]

So...
Why ?

 

[M3d10n]

Those tweets were surprisingly coherent. Written by an assistant?

 

[MechaX]

Holy shit, Reince was on AF1 with Trump when he tweeted this.

Holy fuck Trump is one of the most passive-aggressive human beings on the planet if this is true

 

[Bronx-Man]

"Reince Priebus" That's something George Lucas names a Star Wars character, not an actual human name.

 

[Rymuth]

Goddamn...

Is this true or just a lie to try and save face?

 

[BigDug13]

LMAO poor Colbert with these 5pm news bombs.

He records his Friday shows on Thursdays. He never gets a chance to rip on this Friday stuff fresh.

 

[Draper]

This man is ruling the country via twitter and gold courses.

 

[The Greek Freak]

Is this the guy that had to take the job or retire because he was in the military?

Was Priebus a good one?

Priebus might not have been "good" but by all accounts he wasn't a Russian stooge, was sane, and wasn't a sycophant.

That alone puts him at the top of anyone even remotely tied to this WH.

 

[Rockin' Ranger]

We really could use some more loyalty, couldn't we. 🤔

Reince Priebus Forced Back Into Ancient Puzzle Box After Being Tricked Into Saying Name Backwards

But if Priebus was frustrated with the treatment he endured, he refused to publicly show it.

When Trump infamously convened his top advisers and Cabinet officials in June to praise his performance before the news media, Priebus’ comments stood out for their effusiveness.

“On behalf of the entire senior staff around you, Mr. President, we thank you for the opportunity and the blessing that you’ve given us to serve your agenda and the American people,” Priebus said. “And we’re continuing to work very hard every day to accomplish those goals.”

ALL THIS ASS-KISSING. AND FOR NOTHING.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

[Trickster]

Of course it's done on friday

 

[Shoeless]

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?

Also, it was my understanding the Priebus was the link between actual career political Republicans and Trump. If he's out, does this mean that the Republicans themselves are going to start working against Trump, or does this mean they now understand they have to cower before Trump and abase themselves to him in order to get anything done?

l don't know what else to expect at this point.

lololol

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Didn't multiple people say he was the only thing holding the administration somewhat together.

 

[Slayven]

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

 

[Gurgelhals]

If its David Clarke this country is doomed. That man is a raving lunatic and should be no where near this administration.

Wouldn't make it through the confirmation hearings I'd wager. Not even the Republicans can be that spineless and stupid. Then again...

 

[BronsonLee]

OK now time for some WaPo and NYT bombs

 

[Subpar Spatula]

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.

 

[Muffin1611]

Stinkles is the leaker.

 

[Tovarisc]

Pool: Priebus' car then pulled aside, out of the POTUS motorcade. Priebus car and a follow up departed at 458PM.

All of his tweets have been coherent lately. He has someone reviewing them. Probably a lawyer.

 

[HeatBoost]

Will this be the first administration with faster turnover than a fast food joint?

 

[TheOMan]

It feels like a part time job trying to just keep up with this administration and the latest fiasco it's wandered into.

Seriously.

 

[BronsonLee]

Stinkles is the leaker.

he KNEW

 

[shamanick]

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

 

[antonz]

That is the Donald way. Just suddenly find out your canned. Not one ounce of respect

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

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

Oh, fucking shit.

This is bad, and unless there doesn't have to be new confirmation hearings for this to happen, I can totally see this being the plan.

 

[LiquidSword]

Love it. Especially in the summer.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Wouldn't make it through the confirmation hearings I'd wager. Not even the Republicans can be that spineless and stupid. Then again...

It won't happen shouldn't be a thought.

The biggest thing now is Ryan was his BFF so not sure what changes with Paul Ryan now.

 

[Trojita]

lmao so there isn't a DHS head anymore

 

[Gnome Scat]

Such a well oiled machine.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

Saturday Night Massacre.

Man does history fucking repeat...

 

[John Rabbit]

Is this the guy that had to take the job or retire because he was in the military?

Was Priebus a good one?

That is H.R. McMaster, who took over from Michael Flynn as National Security Advisor.

And no.

 

[Ravensmash]

This is just getting absurd now.

 

[jelly]

That is the Donald way. Just suddenly find out your canned. Not one ounce of respect

Trump is just a coward.

 

[Muffin1611]

he KNEW

Stinkles should cover his ass, the Mooch is gonna go after him

 

[Knoxcore]

YOU FIRED HIM
VIA TWITTER

YOU A BITCH

Holy shit, Reince was on AF1 with Trump when he tweeted this.

Holy fuck Trump is one of the most passive-aggressive human beings on the planet if this is true

Looking like Reince resigned yesterday. This was likely a planned rollout. If Trump had fired him I highly doubt his tweets would be so gracious.

 

[Sobriquet]

Does Kelly have to retire for this?

Man, so many questions

 

[Ovid]

OK now time for some WaPo and NYT bombs

Nah, save it for next week.
