Chopped

As of yesterday, former  NSA Mike Flynn, who seemed like the reincarnation of Curtis Lemay, is gone. There seems to be some confusion as to whether he resigned or was booted out. Yesterday, Dear little Kellyanne, speaking on behalf of the president, said the president had full confidence in Flynn. Apparently something happened overnight, based on information the White House had had for 18 days, that caused that trust to disappear. Today Kellyanne said that Flynn had resigned. Just now, in his daily hilarious monologue, also known as the white house briefing, Sean Spicer stated that in so many words he had been fired. We don't know exactly what transpired but in my mind what occurred was something like this–" Flynn, you have breached our trust by lying to us. Your job was to lie to the public and Congress not us. For that reason, we had to chop you."

Speaking of Kellyanne, a new primary spokesman for the president  appeared on TV yesterday who makes one sort of wistful for Kellyanne and Kaylee and Sean and Jeffrey who tried to dance around Trump's bullshit and put a good face on it, inventing such devices as alternative facts and stating you are only listening to his words. This guy, Steven Miller is a sort of Kamakasi pilot of a surrogate or spokesperson. According to Miller, the president has absolute power over immigration, unchecked by the Constitution and exempt from judicial review, everything he says it is absolutely true, and there is evidence of massive voter fraud, just as Trump says. This guy is part of the Bannon team and he clearly fits in, at the hitman level.

Trump is also upset because the White House pandemonium is being disclosed. It is understandable why Trump would not want what is going on in that madhouse disclosed.

Finally, the governor of New Jersey whose name is Krispy Kreme or something like that is having lunch with the president today. What this presages is anyone's guess.
