Famously, Trump’s Education Secretary Betsy DeVos resigned from her job in the wake of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Like some in the Trump administration at the time, DeVos — whose tenure was condemned by the public education community due to her enthusiasm for privatization — made it clear that her resignation was…

DeVos is stating publicly that she’d work for Trump again if he forgave her for that whole being-upset-about-the-insurrection thing — the kind of groveling that Trump is known to enjoy.

DeVos translated: “The guy disgusts me, but I’d go back to work for him if he’d just let me fulfill my RWNJ goals. Plus, he’d need to phase out my job quickly because I don’t really like to work and, besides, I’m rich and I don’t need to work.”

DeVos is a lousy traitor who wants a second bite at the sabotage apple. Her and her brother are scum of the earth.

In early August, the Republican-controlled state election board in Georgia adopted a new rule that essentially gave Adams what she wanted. It requires local election board members to conduct an undefined “reasonable inquiry” into any discrepancies before they can certify the election. There are concerns that officials could use that discretion to hold up certification of the election.

The reason more rats aren’t fleeing the sinking USS Trump is that the fix is in for Trump all over the place. Will it be enough? Absolutely yes – the only question is whether they’ve rigged the places that matter this time. The answer to that is “probably yes,” but only probably.

GOP statehouses still have 3 months to drop their masks. I expect them to go all-in.

Shorter DeVos: “I will ally with anybody who will let me destroy the public institution my family fortune is dedicated to destroying.”

It is too bad the United States has not declared war on the DeVos family, because the DeVos family has declared war on the United States.

Her brother is the reason I think we need a Constitutional amendment banning private armies and American participation in wars as mercenaries.

No, the Republicans are going down this year.

This is still America, we are the majority, and we won’t let these traitors and freaks destroy our country.

She has a few other conditions

She’s outlining her conditions… to the press… so… she’s playing some kind of game… with the media… which she dislikes and distrusts.

Makes perfect sense. To weirdos.

I love the straight up admission that they just don’t give a damn. At least they’re not hiding behind their mealy mouths anymore.

With Trump as the Republican nominee in this year’s election, DeVos is stating publicly that she’d work for Trump again if he forgave her for that whole being-upset-about-the-insurrection thing — the kind of groveling that Trump is known to enjoy.

Yes, Donnie loves when his adversaries suffer abject humiliation, but that doesn’t always satisfy his passion for vengeance:


ETA: I was gonna write earlier, about his dance, that Donnie only smiles when someone else is suffering, but stopped myself.
But, there it is.
