Has anyone else noticed that her resting face seems to have gone from “snarling disdain” to “serious constipation” lately?

Actually, I was just thinking she looks like she’s been packing on the pounds.

Of course, it could be because her mouth is getting more and more anus-like…so I see your point.

Translation: Pruitt’s been getting too much attention lately. There’s only so much we can expect even our base to keep ignoring, and their capacity to deny reality is already stretched pretty thin by Dear Leader himself.

“Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Wednesday that President Donald Trump was ‘not’ OK with EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt’s below-market-rate townhouse lease with a lobbyist power couple…”

“Look,” she said, “the lobbyists are supposed to stay in your lodgings.”

“Speaking of which,” she continued, “why not treat yourself to the ultimate luxury, at The Old Post Office Trump Hotel, offering special discounts from now until the end of April? Ask about our exciting, new Visiting Head of State™ packages, starting at only $9,999 per night (double occupancy)!”

The dripping is going faster than expected. The evidence is that iDiJiT has been vocal in support of Pruitt, but the outrage over Pruitt should be dismantling the EPA and its mission on behalf of car manufacturers. Instead he might be shoved out because of ethics. But this sounds like the kiss of death.

He phoned Pruitt to reassure him that his job was safe. "Keep your head up, keep fighting, we got your back."

“Annie, we understand that the president’s not OK with this but was there any COLLUSION?”

“It’s The Corruption, Stupid.”

Today I called a book store which carries a lot of magazines to ask if they had the current New York Magazine, man that answered said “The one with the pig face?”

Here we go again. Trump is going to say something supportive about Pruitt and then fire him by tweet later in the day. Now the only question is, which day?

Corruption not Russia will bring him down.

“My whole life I’ve been greedy, greedy, greedy,” declared Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign. “I’ve grabbed all the money I could get. I’m so greedy. But now I want to be greedy for the United States.”

Huh. I expected “I haven’t talked with the President about that specifically but I assume mumblemumblemumble next question”.

Maybe this “why is the President okay with” leading question is a useful construct. I’d like to hear it more often.

April 15, because surely there will be questions thrown at him about tax returns. He’ll say “Thank you. I just fired Pruitt.”

White House: "The President’s Not’ OK - With Pruitt Getting Caught & Causing Headlines"

“The President is very happy with Pruitt’s actions that will take the country down to the third-world extractive industry level. But he’s not OK with the fact that he got caught for a petty $50 a night condo. Stealing on a vast scale is a sign of competence that the White House recognizes, not being found out about cheap lodgings.”

Donnie should look in the mirror at his own ethical, legal and unconstitutional infractions! What a joker!

Pruitt should have rented one of Ivanka or Cuck Kushner’s properties or stayed at the Trump International at the Old Post Office on the lobbyist’s dime. Everyone wins that way.

“. . . we’ve got your back.”

Which means Pruitt is shark bait.

Didn’t Shulkin get a congratulatory Trumpster call the day before he was fired (resigned)?

Kiss of death, indeed. And so-o-o well deserved.
