Trump is a *****. I am shocked that anyone with three brain cells to clink together would even accept a job at the White House now.
I'd think most folks irl would tend to think it was poor judgement to terminate an employee on social media. Same for 'breaking up' or ending a serious relationship by text message.

It's ridiculous to think Mr. Trump's 'You're Fired' White House shenanigans (& other behaviors) are illustrative of a competent, trustworthy & legitimate leader much less POTUS.

His own party and Fox news are against him at this point. Trump is his own worst enemy.


You keep blaming everyone else but everything that goes wrong is HIS fault no one else's.

Now Trump has a mini-me known as Scarey-Moochy who apparently idolizes Trump more than his adoring electorate minions, so all is right- for now.
Can't imagine Kelly will even try to reign in Trump.

Best case, he can create some order in the chaos of the WH that Trump has called a " well- oiled machine" aka the Trump Reality Show.

It's obvious that media's reports of the chaos within the WH were not fake news.

Scaramucci channels Trump. chief of Staff was easy. Bannon is less likely to go quietly into the night. Bannon has declared Breibart " the platform for the alternative right" aka the horn to Trump's base.

Good news seldom gets headlines. The media thrives on intrigue and salacious discord.
If people must watch Fox and CNN they should remain skeptical and remember they are watching
pundits inside the elite bubble. Their opinions don't represent most middleclass working peoples opinion.

I'll give an example : Chris Wallace was talking about the language of Scary Mooch. He said he never heard that kind of language before. No reason not to believe him. He's not typical of people who have worked in construction or on a factory floor or any number of blue collar jobs. He has never been in the military apparently. I heard worse in boot camp. The language I've heard describing a boss has often been much worse. I was even the boss being described at times. It doesn't faze me.

Would you believe immediately, before he even gets his first day as CoS in the White House.

The first liberal loon is Representative Barbara Lee of California (who was a military brat herself) tweeted on Friday, "By putting Gen John Kelly in charge, Pres Trump is militarizing the White House & putting our executive branch in the hands of an extremist."
The selection of Mr. Kelly was quickly praised by both Republicans and Democrats, who expressed hope that he would bring a swift end to the distracting feuds among the president's staff.

We will see how long it will takes for more voices like lunatic Lee.

Actually, the question is how long will it take Trump to savage and smear Gen. John Kelly, just like he's done to the others whom he has appointed (Comey, Sessions, Priebus, et al). Seems he turns on them pretty quickly.

I guess his magical "I-hire-the-best-people" talent is deserting him.

Priebus wasn't the problem.

Kelly won't be the solution.

He's a solid guy with a good reputation. But he's stepping into a no win situation.

Libs are powerless, irrelevant. Remember? Pubs own the USA lock, stock, and barrel.

From an expert...

Carry on.

Apparently the hocus pocus of 'hiring the best people' is only secondary to his magical 'making them disappear' act by his intonation of the magical spell words ~ 'You're Fired!'

Exactly. It's not liberals trashing Sessions every day on Twitter. That would be Potus himself.

Is the Mooch a liberal? Cause he sure smeared Reince and Bannon in the New Yorker interview - using profanity that wouldn't even be allowed on this site.

Some week for Trump: blaming Sessions, the Senate, Preibus (via Scaramucci), China for the NK missile, etc.

What a whiner. Someone would have to be crazy to work for that idiot.
A weak, sniveling, whiner. He takes responsibility for NOTHING. He cares for nothing but his own ego.

And he will turn on Kelly the same way he turned on Sessions, Spicer, Preibus, Flynn, Christie . .

And they have the nerve to blame liberals for this clown show.

The people working for the President of the U.S.on behalf of this country should have better control and comport themselves with the dignity of the office, not act like some goomba on the streets of New York. The language he used doesn't faze me either, but it's not appropriate for someone in his position.
