Hey now - a bachelor's in econ is, ummmm...., very important. Much studious. 

Lol.  I'm not qualified for the WH and neither is she. 

I have a BA in Education so I should be Ed Sec, obv

Super late to this party but I have a BA in International Affairs that I don’t actually use. Sign me up for Secretary of State! I’ll host rap battles with Treasury.

Thanks for nothing, Diane.

She’s mine, I’ll rage call the office.

Maybe this is why?

My masters in Gepphysics makes me a shoe in for EPA right? We'll be the best Cabinet!

I have history degrees so I'll just write the book about all of your Cabinet terms after you're dead and roast you.

[jkjacq]

I graduated high school and have one year of college. And a whole bunch of life experiences. I think I’m qualified for the oval right?

longest day of work for him ever.

Oh my.

Apparently some of the "incidents" alleged by Stormy Daniels happened since Trump has been president.

Well this might throw a log on the fire...

Regarding Kudlow: "the 90s were a 'crazy time'"????

Will Stormy Daniels be the undoing?!

I need it to be November.

ETA:  I realize this is such a useless contribution.  Elizabeth Warren was on Pod Save America yesterday and it's great and even though she said a million times she's not running I want her to be president.

I go back and forth on Warren. I think she would actually be good, but I'm also not sure she could get elected.

ETA: And then there are those moments when she buys into the rigged primary BS and I want to shake her.

I think Annie would do well here.

[enchanted]

Mistake or they know 45 watches and now he'll be screaming for Sessions to fire McCabe?

ETA: Reading fail. It says online, not on television. I don't know how much time he spends on the internet aside from Twitter.

[enchanted]

Good.

The Maine Republican who called Emma Gonzalez "a skinhead lesbian" is out of the race.

[enchanted]

A study finds that 45's rallies are associated with a rise in violence in the surrounding areas.

[enchanted]

No corresponding rise to HRC's rallies.

Time to break out my shocked face.

[enchanted]

This is hateful. In Arizona, two women took their children to a mosque and began mocking the faith.

Thankfully, they were arrested for burglary.

And of course, I read the comments and pleasantly surprised by most of them.

ETA: They were also stupid enough to record themselves doing so.

I feel for their kids. They're being brought up to blindly hate.

[dc2london]

Oh? Do go on.

Michael Avenatti, the lawyer representing Stormy Daniels, claims "6 separate women with similar claims" to his client have approached him

2 of them reportedly have NDAs

His firm is investigating their claims

I don't feel sorry for Rex at all. But it's painful to watch the complete annihilation of people's legacies/reputations in the span of a year with Trump.

I also enjoy remembering that at least part of why he took the job is because his wife told him god had chosen him for this. 😂😂😂

I have frequently thought about him mentally cursing his wife out. Lol.

[Deleted]

The one thing I respect about Rex is his refusal to deny that he called Trump a fucking moron.

[dc2london]

Ok Trump is definitely hiding something bigger than a run-of-the-mill affair and shark spanking. $20 million??!!

[dc2london]

I think Rex had actually just retired when he was tapped as SoS which makes it even more pathetic.

[mb3]

I don’t feel bad for Rex as a person, but I’m angry this is being said about our Secretary of State. Especially by the Chief of Staff.

For how long?

Until the next check cashes?
