Sit Down Because You’re Probably Going to Have to Read This Twice
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau needs a new leader. So, a guy applies. It just so happens that he’s a former CEO of a payday lending company – those places that break all natural laws of common decency along with at least 2 commandments. These are the guys that Sweet Jesus threw out of the temple. Honey, when Jesus looses his temper at you, you’re bad.
And then there was this woman, who believed she was perfect for the Trump administration. Her company, Worldwide Acceptance, was investigated by the CFPB and she resigned. Two damn days later, she applied for a job at CFPB with this on her resume.
She goes so far as to cite the CFPB’s investigation into her company as an experience that uniquely qualifies her for the job.
“I have indepth (sic) experience of what a CFPB investigation is like, and so I am in an unparalleled position to understand the effect of various CFPB actions on a company, its workforce, its customers and the industry,” she says.
Yeah, I’m a crook. Hire me.
Not to shock you, but her company gave only to the guy doing the hiring while he was in congress.
Welcome to the Trump years. Take a seat and someone will be with you to empty your pockets shortly.
..and today only, if your loan is approved at an extremely high interest rate we can offer you a very good deal on a bag of clean coal.
1Reminds me of doctors who are total quacks, maybe even guilty of negligence etc. etc. and even death who are thrown out of one state only to be able to find another state where they can set up practice.
2That takes, as One-L-Michele Bachman says, chootzpah. Lots of chootzpah.
3She fits the Drumpf bill, grifters all.
4The worst of it is that if this garbage is allowed to go on openly for four years, it’s going to seem normal to a lot of people. Damn it, this is not what America is. We hide this kind of crap because it’s not acceptable to do it out in public high, wide, and handsome. What’s the use of the Perp Walk of Shame if those who should be doing it are up on stage grinning, waving to their friends, and counting their moneybags even after we all know how they got there?
5Well hell, if you’re the hugest, bestest, most corrupt and criminalist USA No 1 Godfather-President ever, you’ve pretty well run out of help di familia, and you need to staff your massive, newly acquired criminal organization, you don’t solicit applicants from the ranks of church choirs and Brownie troops, do you?
No, of course not.
6You want proven consiglieres and capos who already know the biz, will hit it running, and give you, the Capo di tutti capi, absolute allegiance and loyalty.
So you put out the word to the GrOPers, and the worst our nation has to offer comes crawling out and you snap them up, choose their positions carefully (to maximize familia profits and vengeful damage to your enemies), give them some perks; then you sit back, throw out a few more tweets, and roll in it all.
Has he hired her yet?
