Rapid Response Director Leavesā€¦Well, that happened fastā€¦almost rapidly.

Probably the only rapid thing thatā€™s happened while he was thereā€¦ending his employment.

But, but, butā€¦wait a minute, its not even Fridayā€¦

For a minute I thought this was linked to FEMA - you know, ā€œrapid response.ā€ A hurricane is churning for Texas, and it could turn north to New Orleans. Trumpā€™s half-ass administration is about to get a full-ass test, one W failed spectacularly.

Crisis management in the White House has been taken over by aliens from outer space, aka, republicans.

Gen. Bat ā€œMad Batā€ McBatpellet is rumored to be in the running, leaving the Pentagon with only a handful of generals.

HEMMING WAS SENIOR ADVISER for research at the RNC in the 2016 cycle and director of research on the Trump campaign. At the White House, he worked from 5:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. every weekday and was a regular in reportersā€™ inboxes, blasting out stories favorable to the administration.

Sounds like a shit job.

Okay, TPMā€™ersā€¦ youā€™re all having a lot of fun with this, but, you know, this is serious. No other Administration in history has had the same kind of NEED for a Rapid Response Director. The typical time between a good news story and a disastrous story, in this administration, (to the extent that this porta-potty fire deserves the appallation ā€œadministrationā€), is usually measured in hours, sometimes only minutes. I mean, something that might counts as ā€œgoodā€ happens, and then, you know, the Lying Orange Shit-Stain goes to take a dump, and he tweets some praise for Hitler, or attacks his own Attorney General or whatever, and itā€™s too lateā€¦ the good news gets buried under the next self-inflicted wound.

The only ā€œRapidā€ thatā€™s ever likely to be rapid enough for this debacle is someone who can time-travel backwards.

How about a little sympathy?

Or not.

Well, it sure doesnā€™t describe the job of an only good news sorter.

If Andy Hemming was really rapid at responses, he would have left about 15 minutes after the new employee luncheon.

We donā€™t have a FEMA director either. Heckovajob, Donnie!

If only Jill Newslady were on the air every night, that could have made his responsibilities less heavy.

Well, look at it one way and heā€™s the Early Rat since the shipā€™s still kind of afloat. Put it another way, better a Hemming than a Lemming.

Trump: Dont need him. I can tweet much faster than anyone on the Rapid Response team. Saves money for me.
