Who will be next out of Trump's kakistocracy?

Didn't she say she was going to resign about a month ago?

Sarah Huckabee Sanders ‘set to leave White House by end of 2018,’ report says

Buh bye.

DHS secretary Nielsen may beat Whitaker out the door. Apparently, she's not locking up enough babies to Trump's liking.

Trump Gearing Up to Fire Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen: Report - The Daily Beast

Damn you, I read this as "knocking up".

Sarah Huckabee Sanders ‘set to leave White House by end of 2018,’ report says

Buh bye.

That's good, but who's going to replace her? Maybe...

All hail our gargantuan, cyborg president. May death come quickly to his enemies.

White House aide Mira Ricardel removed after Melania Trump row - BBC News

Be best, best people.

CNN says John Kelly is the next to go. I'm surprised he lasted this long since he seems to actually be somewhat competent.

Well, John Kelly quitting the Trump Admin is a bit like Voyager II leaving the heliosphere. It has been reported quite often.

The problem is Kelly does the firing. Trump won't do it himself.

I miss Sean Spicer hiding in the bushes. That was fun.

If he hires “only the best people”, why does every one of them leave under his criticism that they are either stupid or lazy?

Because nobody is remotely as good as His Flatulence.

Does Nick Ayers count for this?

He has been advising the President while working for the Vice, had the nameplate for the new desk all shined up, and suddenly bails on new job AND current job. Like he can't eject out of the place fast enough. What memo did he see?

Maybe he wandered into Kelly's office to talk about the transition and Kelly asked "Dude, WTF is wrong with you?" and then Ayers suddenly remembered his longstanding desire to go and spend more time with his family far, far away from the White House.

One day in the not-too-distant future, you may see ads for five-star luxury resorts using that line... "far, far away from the White House".

It is definitely odd that someone like him would step back and hit the eject button. It might be all those decades of experience he has as a 35 year old that told him it was time to appreciate being with his family again. Or he walked in on Donald and Ivanka.

Personally, I don't see why Trump needs someone that he won't bother listening to anyway. Time to go on without one. It'll be one less person he'll need to find disappointment with.

It's a new Star Wars movie

In a galaxy far, far away from the White House.

When the shit hits the fan, the more people he has around him to shoulder the blame, the better for Cheato.


ETA: Thanks to Ziprhead for putting a strike-through on the names of the already exorcised.

Ole Nick has political aspirations in Georgia and wants to get out while he can shake off the do do from his feet before the shit really does hit the fan.
