I'm beginning to think that pathological lying is a top priority qualification to work anywhere connected to trump*.

. . .a SENATOR only makes $174k per year. This young kid makes 80% of what a Senator gets paid? Really? For an assistant's position? With taxpayer funds?

But, seems like they could have someone with credentials hire "eye candy" that didn't cost that much per year.

I get you were being sarcastic.

That doesn't make my irritation over someone that limited in experience, working on the taxpayers' dime, making 80% of a sitting US. Senator assuaged.

I'm funny like that.

For all their bluster about cutting the budget to lower the deficit, we pay under qualified people that much money compared to someone with FAR more and gravely important responsibilities.

Sickening.
