Gary Cohn did just resign (Chief Economic Adv.).

It is over the tariffs. How many people have left so far? Rachel will need to get a smaller font size since her list is so huge.

He was pissed off over the neo Nazis and other fine people last Summer. The tariffs were the final straw.

since they will not get reelected by the blue collar workers. Ryan is already not happy about the tariffs for this very reason.

Prepare for more Huckabee-Sanders whitewashing of this Hindenburg disaster of an administration as a small dumpster fire. It’s a year in, and I want off this ride.

The Trump white house is becoming a shell. The kiss-asses
staying are losing credibility ... they have no place to go, and
Trump cannot replace the expertise he is losing.

We are in trouble!!!

Seriously, this is what he said when asked about all the departures from his administration. Talk about delusional. From what I can tell, the WH door only opens one way -- out.
