Discussion: Kirstjen Nielsen Denies She Threatened To Resign After Trump Scolding

Which doesnā€™t mean she didnā€™t go back to the office and update her c.v. and tell her assistants ā€˜I canā€™t work for this stupid asshole.ā€™ She just didnā€™t threaten to resign directly to Trump or Kelly.

I get that thereā€™s lots of people out there who attach themselves to Trump for purposes of self-promotion. The amazing thing is the enthusiasm for self-degradation.

Thanks for confirming that it really did happen, Kirstjen.

Kirstjen: "Iā€™ll never resign. Itā€™ll take dynamite to get me out of here. Iā€™m a heartless cur ā€” I belong here! Besides, I have to stay to receive my Rethugliklan Mother of the Year Award.

ā€œIā€™m also so tainted I couldnā€™t get another job if my life depended on it.ā€

Ya see, this is a perfect example, as Sarah Hamhock Sanders points out of liberal reporters making stuff up!

Where in the world do they make up such things! Questioning the loyalty of Ms. Nielsen?

Like a drug addict who sees a normal person walk by with a carefree expression,she wanted to quit for a minute. But she took another hit of that sweet, sweet, power, and happily lay back down in the gutter.

Did anyone hear her interview on NPR last week? I listened, and came away with the clear impression that sheā€™s a psychopath. There was no hint of human compassion there. None. So, maybe her pride was hurt if trump scolded her, but I donā€™t believe for a second she had any moral qualms about what sheā€™s doing.

The question should be how The Rump manages to demand so much loyalty, yet inspire so little.

According to the Times, Nielsen ā€œtold associates after the meeting that she should not continue in the job if the President did not view her as effective.ā€

Not a threat to resign. Accurate reporting by NYT. Not Fake News.

(However, the leaker is a traitor and a coward and should be fired.)

The reporting was probably accurate but the characterization of her statement was where things went wrong. She said if Trump wasnā€™t satisfied with her job, she shouldnā€™t be in that position. Thatā€™s a big difference from her threatening to resign-- or at least different enough for her to deny ever threatening to resign and to provide others with enough rope to cry, ā€œFake news!ā€ once again.

OKā€¦we all like to be yelled at by an uneducated moronic buffoonā€¦be sure and put that on your resumeā€¦Iā€™m sure there all sorts of conservative ā€˜think tanksā€™ that will be lining up to hire you.

Hey, hey, hey, people! We need to give this administration the benefit of the doubt. Until they do something to undermine their credibility, we should take everything any of them says at face value.

Wait a second, scratch that. Replace it with: Even if they lie to us every fucking time they open their fucking mouths, we should believe them the next time they open their mouths.
