    Just when I thought nobody could break The Mooch’s record, we get a new unit of measurement for White House tenure.

    The question now is who is the next Trump bimbo to get the job? Why not Ivanka? What she’s doing these days?

      Looks like he has two of those real dolls set up in there. Maybe too much teeth, though.

      Wait a minute, all those promises of sex bots being made? Is the primary audience donnie? He loves Grok, too. It would make so much sense.

    As Jimmy Kimmel said: what do Pete Hegseth and Katie Zacharia have in common? Neither of them can pass the bar.

    .6 Scaramuchis

    I guessed it

    1 Scaramuchi = 11 days

    1 Zachamuchi = 7 days

    Can we all just stop reacting to the intentional distraction cycle?

    I wish the press would just refuse to cover the unprofessional nonsense, treat the administration like a toddler breaking things just to get attention.

    It’s really hard to distinguish your incompetence surrounded by really incompetent people.

    What a joke.

    They should fire the person who approved this hire. That’s the person to blame.
