Criticizing trump when they do, it means nothing and has no impact.....if they really wanted to make a impact they would have criticized him while still there and then resigned...

(53,471 posts)and stayed during this whole disastrous debacle of an administration. There are so few originals left but Kelly Anne Conway and nazi Steven Miller, can you hear me?
Poor Hope Hicks who quit and came back, can you fucking believe it? Guess good looks isn't everything, she couldn't find work out there after being so closely tied to orange turd trump.
And then of course the czarina and jared. They are going to be so persona non grata when this is all over. You almost feel sorry for them.
NOT! Just kidding.

Just imagine if Mattis was still the SECDEF and wrote this oped and then resigned...

(17,781 posts)we have no idea what's gone on behind closed doors. We might have found ourselves in this kind of tyranny much earlier had it not been for those talking Donnie off the ledge.

(18,486 posts)Without mentioning that Mattis stood silently right alongside with Trump for two of those three years. And if he had spoken up, maybe this wouldn't be happening.

The question is why did they take the job at all? .. they knew he was a depraved excuse for a human being .. they knew the only voice he hears is the one rolling around in his reptilian head... they knew the moment they questioned his lack of judgement he would go after them publicly ..they knew he would humiliate them like a 3rd grade playground bully and yet they hung in there..And if they resigned en masse that would be like Trump's wet dream...look what type of trash he has in his cabinet now, look at what passes for a press secretary..look at his closest advisors..his vile daughter and son-in-law... and why when they'd had enough didnt they go to Rachel and Anderson and the New York Times/Washington Post and grab a bull horn and scream about the depravity in the White House.. working for trump was supposed to be a career topper when in fact, it ended all their careers ..and then they wrote tell-nothing books...books no one read...
