So MELANIA Is Firing National Security Advisors Now? Know What's MOST Scary About That?

So, MELANIA got deputy National Security Advisor Mira Ricardel fired, because she complained about Melania using NSC funds to basically do a Sports Illustrated photo shoot in Africa.

You know what's really scary about the idea of MELANIA firing members of the White House staff? The fact that her reasons for firing career professionals is AT LEAST as logical as Trumps! Melania is the bubble-headed trophy wife of a billionaire, who spends most of her mental energy deciding which designer pith helmet to wear on a tour of Africa, and which Indiana Jones fedora to wear to a tour of Egypt.

But that STILL makes her TWICE as smart, and her actions TWICE as logical as her idiot husband's.
Trump hires and fires people based on whim and egotism. Usually hiring people because they act aggressive on TV, like that oily derivatives trader Anthony Scaramucci, or that flatulent, bloviating Hungarian Nazi Sebastian Gorka. And he fires them for the same reason. For failing to sufficiently stroke his ego, or failing to look crazy enough during TV interviews, like 'Moderate Dog Matis,' or 'Mr. McGoo Sessions.'

This is really a bizarro universe!

1. Being a grifter appears to be the only Trump White House job requirement.

You must grift and enable Trump grifting. If you constrain or object to the Trump family's grifting in any way, like Ricardel did, you are forced out.

First it was the jacket..." I don't really care. Do you?" When she went off to visit those bothersome immigrant children and had to postpone her pedicure.

Then fires...well fired after her little pout...the NSA Ricardel...okay, okay on the TV machine she called for her to be fired and her beloved pussy grabbing, porno star paying poor excuse for a man fired her. Guess he thinks he can get some tonight after that.

Ouch, my mind hiurts.

Maybe she calls her old pimp to send over one of the new girls from Russia?? Just as she "aged out" of her old (oldest?) profession, so she is aging out of the trophy wife gig.

Would not be surprised if the whole thing was a long term deep agent placement.

She's not as pleasant as her facade makes out. There's a ruthless operator under there.

8. Yes, and she (R) is squandering our hard-earned tax dollars on her fashion shoots

and luxurious vacations. I thought her republican spousal unit* was supposed to be a freaking billionaire. Why can't he pay for her frivolities? Why are the republicans sticking American taxpayers with the bill? That totally sucks.

* aka republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief

republicans made Americans pay hundreds of thousands of our tax dollars for this useless "fashion" shit, while our countrymen are accutely cold, hungry, storm-wrecked, and burned out. republican "values" suck.

12. What makes me curious is why do their pants always have wrinkles in the ctotch?

It's not just her, it's the same with her husband. Do they pay extra for that look? I buy off the rack and I can sit all day and not have a wrinkle in the crotch. You are right, that outfit does make her look fat.

14. She won't ever wear those slacks again. They were dragging out her tracks

so the Egypian sand and dirt probably frayed the hem. And once that photo shoot was finished, she returned tRump’s jacket and tie. Fashion sense my fat ass.

Hey, Melania. Your hair looks greasy and stringy. Try some Suave for tRamps next time. (Sorry for giving tRamps a bad name.)

15. I find the thing with her jacket sans arms to be creepy. There are shawls and wraps

in any store that look nice and are beautiful when worn with pants or dresses, they don't look stupid like her jackets or coats draped over her shoulders do. To me that a trashy fashion.

She especially feels locked away in an old OOOLD non-glittery house far away from her luncheon friends and social gatherings. She just sits there all day totally cut off from the life she used to have and now she can't handle it anymore so she lashes out at "the help" (Mira and Kelly).

He too has withdrawn into his own room and can't make public appearances other then rallies.

11. NSC funds for a trip?

Good grief. I'd complain too. There's not enough $ to do real cyber-security, but they're spending it on Mrs. Trump's show trips?

She has no legal right to fire or make anyone in the government unwelcome, except for her office staff. National Security hires do not serve at the pleasure of the First Lady. This Trump Cartel needs daily 8th grade Civics classes.
