There is no logic to what he does. Also, not sure who might decide it's time to get off this sinking ship.

though that's unrelated to the Russia shitstorm.

I'll miss Spicey. More accurately, I'll miss Melissa McCarthy as Spicey.

Maybe Kellyanne, but I think she has a better chance of clinging on for a awhile.

Lied about his role in the Boston Marathon bombing trial, possible ties to a Nazi ally, etc.

He's also Breitbart, so you know he's part of the nucleus.

And Agnew was a special case. Numnuts took cash bribes as Governor of Maryland AND after he was VP. Pence is quite unlikely to do anything that stupid and I would be very surprised if he had any inside skinny on the Russia connection.

The whole reason Flynn resigned was based on the premise that he lied to Pence but the question is...did he?

but, from what I've read through a few links here at the DU, the knives are definitely out for him. No sympathy for any of this sorry lot, however.

and their underpaid and duplicitous underlings pass it on to their media friends.

The Alt-right hates disloyalty to the cause, and Reince is a weasel of first order magnitude.

Sometimes, I have to admit, having the most corrupt government in the world might be our only hope. Kinda what the whole "balance of powers" idea is all about. Survival of the best back-stabbers...

Spicer is low hanging fruit.

Besides he's "funny". Congressional hearings and prosecution to the traitors and then the total collapse of this administration. Here's hoping.
