that would be the most blatant use of an official position in the ego that we have ever seen. is that what service has come to? soothing the president ego. no question. what you have seen is all the adults have left the room. you have jim mattis doing a book promotion tour. instead of serving in the cabinet. tillerson is gone. mcmaster is gone. anybody as a check or balance on trump has pushed out. he s surrounded by lackies. people like bill barr. he s spending $30,000 on a christmas party at the trump hotel in washington. you have somebody like ross who is allegedly telling people they will be fired if they contradict the president. even though it s flatly wrong. and of course you have mike pence terrified there might be an i o da of space between him
