Seriously people. We need an "under the bus" emoticon for DU.

Pompeo gets thrown under the bus today by Trump. Is this how a House of Card falls? From within by the screaming and kicking manchild in the oval office?

Now that I think about it, someone needs to start making a "House of Card falls down gif", because we'll all be using it soon.

Bus backs up and runs over them again. Rinse, lather, repeat.

Isn’t that the way these things have been going?? By the way, I know nothing about creating such an emoticon, but if I could, I’d make one exactly as I described.

Is Pompeo willing to go to prison for the Mad King?

I see he's thinking of running for US Senator in Kansas. Wonder if that would even work?

But, I do like the visual of big wheels on the bus, in case anyone is taking notes.

Make a shout-out to Skinner.

(that's how I/we got the 'fist-bump' emoji when Obama was running.)
