I Am A Tad Nervous
Okay, so today Steve Bannon spoke at CPAC and reassured everybody that everything is hunky dory at the White House. Really. Seriously. Just fine. Fit as a fiddle.
Bannon, along with White House chief of staff Reince Priebus, spoke Thursday at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in their latest attempt to dispel notions that they are combative rivals fighting for power in the West Wing.
“I can run a little hot,” Bannon said. “The only way this thing works is that Reince is very steady.”
Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap. Holy crap.
Are you telling me that the only thing standing between me and total nuclear Armageddon is Reinse Priebus?
We’re gonna all die.
At least Reince will soil himself first.
1If everything at the WH is hunky-dory by Bannon’s standards, that’s enough reason to worry.
JJ, yes, we’re all gonna die. I’m a biologist and I know that. The question is how soon and how painfully, and whether we all go together when we go.
2Yeah, tell me about it, Rhea. I moved from Orlando back to DeeCee in 2012. Back to Ground Zero when the nukes come out. I also choose lousy Powerball numbers, too. Heavy sigh.
3OH, JJ! YOU WITTY GIRL!!
You typed CPAP, but it’s CPAC. Pap as in pablum! I get it! Now that’s clever! *snicker*
(If you didn’t mean to do that… just smile and give a sweet southern “Thank yew!” M’kay?)
4Okay, question. My understanding of Secret Service details is entirely based on West Wing episodes. But I have no problem imagining them saying that they DO NOT COMMENT on security details. So who the hell has protection under this new so-called administration? When in history. HISTORY has an advisor been given the same status as chief of staff? This bastardized administration is spending a Yuuuge fortune on security. I want to see a story about how much money we’re spending on douchebags.
5I remember vividly Mitch McConnell walking onstage at a recent CPAC waving a rifle. That was the moment I began to despise the Republican party, which I had only up to this time disliked.
6Now, with Brennan and Priebus playing nice, I am so revolted at the hypocrisy, I can barely keep anything down. I pray that the FBI/CIA investigations quickly find the Russian connections and show these criminals for what they are.
Dictionary definition of military (Merriam Webster): “of or relating to soldiers, arms, or war “.
So did The Orange Horror mean soldiers, arms, or war?
7I think the Trump administration will consist of a series of favorites who are then exiled in favor of new favorites.
Does Trump have any long-term relationships that aren’t bloodline?
8P.P., did you mean douchebags other than Trump? Here’s some idea of how much he and his family are costing us:

His three weekends so far at Mar-a-Lago cost us about as much as Obama’s travel each year.
9NaziKKK Bannon, Rancid Penis and the entire C-Pablum bunch are being savaged throughout the twitterverse except for a few rabid NaziKKK types who are outnumbered thousands to one.
A Hillary quote is flooding the delicate flowers who are scuttling fearfully from town halls: “If you can’t take the heat, get out of Congress.”
My friends, we are a few of millions! Take heart.
10Hot off the heels of the Women’s March is an idea for A Day Without Women. Take that, pussy grabbers! This, too, can be done with military-style precision.
11I only saw a clip of the R&S show, but I found the body dynamics interesting. Steve had the microphone and Reince reached over and put hand on his other forearm.
I could be wrong, but it struck me as like a wife who is trying to get her Archie Bunker-type husband to dial it down. Reince is obviously not even close to an alpha type. Not that I want him to be aggressive, but I’d like to think he has a chance at reining in the impulsive jerks making decisions. Sigh.
12Bloated, drunk, and probably using sleeping pills to shut off for a few hours, Bannon is a prime candidate for sleep apnea. His CPAP is probably industrial strength, like Darth Vader’s.
This whole FBI leak about Priebus smells like a Bannon set-up to get him out of the Admin.
13Ms. Juanita Jean Herownself and JAKvirginia, sometimes a typo is just a typo. We all typo. But. Sometimes there is a little Freudian slip in our fingers, too.
OK It was CPAC with all the usual suspects, minus the 2 CPAC booted for optics. Who needs Milo or Spencer, when Mikey Pence is available to carry on the homophobia and crazy misogynist racism?
Let’s talk CPAP. Or, C-PAP. That’s what Mikey Pence wants – entry into your PAP smears and any thought of doctor/patient confidentiality you had under the US Constitution, until Donnie’s Team Intrusive arrived to invade your privacy.
Meanwhile, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions leads the Bathroom Brigade to strip students of their Title IX rights and every scrap of dignity to the most vulnerable minority in America. While Ms Ed Betsy rolled over and said (never mind, it would never pass Mama inspection.)
