As should professional liars like George Will and the Russian Max Boot, who did all they could to cheer on the evils of the GOP for decades.

What are the odds that now having realized the seriousness of the situation, he's trying to stick around long enough to lead a cabinet revolt and 25th the 45th? (I know. Chances aren't good. Nobody is jumping in to save us.)

Late 80s. Absolutely happened during the "police riots" in the East Village in the late 1980s.

I also like dry humor that makes your whole brain pucker up. this just makes it even more exciting to read.

Esper is probably scrambling to find reasons for his statement that Trump will understand. Trump probably doesn't believe Esper said what he did-- people lie often, and he rarely gets the unvarnished truth--and even if he finds out the truth, he'll be a while coming up with the gonads to quit-fire the man. It will probably be the White House Hit Man, Kushner.

Most of cheeto's cabinet picks are dopes but they are greedy dopes. Esper wants to stay at the trough for as long as possible. Guys like Gary Cohn and Jim Mattis are pros who knew how to get paid and then how to get the hell out. Elaine Chao is also a pro but she stays under the radar so she's going to stay thieving until the very end. Esper is not in their league but he is getting his.

Well, I'm glad you're here now. Texas is turning blue, baby!

I predict that is only going to last for about 5 more months. There's a blue wave a'comin' and it's going to wash away a whole lot of blood-red doofuses.

I like bookends of "when he came out of hiding" at the start and calling him a coward at the end.

Do we even know they're cops? They could be Eric Prince's people. You know, the soldier wannabes who couldn't pass the psych eval?
