I'm still pissed at Kushner. To me, he was the worst last Thursday.

After hearing from the police officer who was "slipping in blood" he's talking he didn't have time to consider the "whiner" lawyers who were trying to stop Trump from committing treason because he was busy trying to get pardons for his friends.

From Dictionary.com. "someone who complains a lot, especially in a peevish, self-pitying manner or tone:Being a whiner at work just makes you look petty, childish, and untrustworthy."

Who the hell does he think he is? What an absolute fuck. Barf.

I need a new revenge fantasy just for him.

The greatest "let them eat cake" moment in the last 200+ years.

This was the White House Council threatening to resign, not some disgruntled employee whining. This is for all the people who think it’s a great idea to put businessman in government.

They’re grifters and scammers.

Think of real business people who have actual accomplishments. People like Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Deborah Borda, David Geffen, Elon Musk, Sheryl Sandburg and many others. They don’t go into politics, thankfully. I’m not suggesting these are good people who would make great public servants, just that they are actual business people.

The Trumps suck at everything they do and their customers are always short-changed.

Having written all of that, I agree that business people generally make poor politicians. We shouldn’t want our governments run by this type because business and government should be on opposite sides of that spectrum.

I’ve read that his fellow Harvard students-the ones with a lot of old money - laughed at him trying to show he has money. Real money keeps to themselves so as not to show it.

He doesn’t appear to have any actual skills. He doesn’t create things. He doesn’t even create new “products” in the financial area. He cashed out on Dad’s business then bought a newspaper (in the 21st century) and slapped all the money back down in the table for one property. He got bailed out by probably the Saudis.

...it's not like he was responding directly to Caroline Edwards. His, like all others, was cherry-picked from what are undoubtedly hours of depositions. But, your point that he is a feckless, entitled little prick still stands.

Absolutely no deference shown to the customs and integrity of his office.

I honestly feel that the White House was occupied by a hostile force for 4 years.

I worked with the world's laziest and dumbest lawyer. I once called a privileged white guy. He did not know what it meant.

How can you be so self absorbed and clueless.
