They go away, but not really.
It wasn’t meant to last. Sally Q., we really didn’t get to know you. No sooner did you come into our lives than you were out the door, “napalmed,” as the Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza would say, by a president not nice enough to appreciate your self-profile in courage. In happier days your typical Sally Yates would have enjoyed 15 minutes of fame. Now she was lucky to get 1.5 seconds, and zap — another mosquito bitten back, twice as hard. To put it another way, she never did establish her residence in Enemy Central country and we didn’t even need an executive order to subject her to the extreme vetting she never earned.
Ah, but the pickings do not remain slim. Not if your name Arnold and the new president has just reminded him that his TV ratings are worse than they were back when he was governator of the quake state. So Arnold thought he would get even and offer to trade places in order to allow the American people to sleep better at night. Just what we need — an actual foreign-born president living in the White House. How long before the current incumbent would remind the people not only of the sleep-over specialist’s Austrian birther mark, but by extension his links to that Hitler guy?
As it turns out, there are two Republican gals no one will ever accuse of being feminazis. Geographically, Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins couldn’t be farther apart. But when it comes to opposition to a successful woman, they might as well be Romulus and Remus. Memo to President Trump: no more women appointments to your cabinet. At least not until a few more Joe Manchins join the GOP’s Senate ranks. Many are the nuclear options he will have to opt for.
