Well I imagine in a couple of months we'll be seeing mass steel worker layoffs.
The good news is I guess we're not going to see any more s***ty Trump-branded skyscrapers, since those were all built with Chinese steel anyhow.

trump went full dictator. He said we should execute drug dealers.
I have family members who voted for him who have sold, and others do sell, weed. They’re on trump’s execution list now. I love it. Their egos will still prevent them from saying anything negative about him.
Robert Jeffress, Pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas and an avid supporter of Donald Trump, earned headlines this week for his defense of the president’s adultery with a porn star. Regarding the affair and subsequent financial payments, Jeffress explained, “Even if it’s true, it doesn’t matter.”
Such a casual attitude toward adultery and prostitution might seem odd from a guy who blamed 9/11 on America’s sinfulness. However, seen through the lens of white evangelicals’ real priorities, Jeffress’ disinterest in Trump’s sordid lifestyle makes sense. Religion is inseparable from culture, and culture is inseparable from history. Modern, white evangelicalism emerged from the interplay between race and religion in the slave states. What today we call “evangelical Christianity,” is the product of centuries of conditioning, in which religious practices were adapted to nurture a slave economy. The calloused insensitivity of modern white evangelicals was shaped by the economic and cultural priorities that forged their theology over centuries.
See post above. They won't mention russia.UK says most likely Russian's behind the nerve agent attack. You can guess Trump's position on it.
To my surprise, the guy who received a medal from putin, was/is an oil first guy, he seemed like the only voice of reason, empathy, smarts, in the fail house. Of course they got rid of him.Tillerson fired, which resets the "Days without a Cabinet departure" to zero, just when it looked like it might reach a high somewhere in the low double digits.
Let's not give the guy too much credit. Most of the capable experienced heads had left the SD over the past year (many just in the last few months) and he wasn't replacing them. His admonishment of the Russian spy poisoning and climate change should just be simple math in normal world.To my surprise, the guy who received a medal from putin, was/is an oil first guy, he seemed like the only voice of reason, empathy, smarts, in the fail house.

He called out the soviet union. He said something needs to be done on climate change. I was pleasantly surprised. Wasn't perfect, but was, by far, the best with the s*** show there is now.

Well Monday was exciting too:Tillerson fired, which resets the "Days without a Cabinet departure" to zero, just when it looked like it might reach a high somewhere in the low double digits.
The never ending story..... soviet union related? Being trump's personal assistant, he has to be mixed up in all of this.

Trump’s Personal Assistant Is FiredJohn McEntee was escorted out of White House for unspecified security issue
WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump’s personal assistant, John McEntee, was escorted out of the White House on Monday, two senior administration officials said. The cause of the firing was an unspecified security issue, said a third White House official with knowledge of the situation.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders declined to comment saying, “We don’t comment on personnel issues.” Mr. McEntee didn’t return a call seeking comment.
Mr. McEntee was one of the longest-serving aides to Mr. Trump, dating back to the earliest days of the campaign when some of the only aides around the then-candidate included Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser; Stephen Miller, the president’s policy director; White House communications director Hope Hicks, who announced her resignation two weeks ago; and Dan Scavino, who is the White House director of social media.
In additional staff turnover, Mr. Trump on Tuesday said Rex Tillerson was out as secretary of state, after months of speculation over his fate, and that Central Intelligence Agency Director Mike Pompeo would be nominated to lead the State Department.
Mr. McEntee wasn’t as well known as the others, but had been a constant presence at Mr. Trump’s side for the past three years. He made sure Mr. Trump had markers to sign autographs, delivered messages to him in the White House residence and, over the weekend, ensured that the clocks in the White House residence were adjusted for daylight-saving time.
“It’s not going to be great for morale,” one White House official said about Mr. McEntee’s departure.
Mr. McEntee was removed from the White House grounds on Monday afternoon without being allowed to collect his belongings, a White House official said. He left without his jacket, a second White House official said.
It wasn’t clear exactly why Mr. McEntee was fired Monday. He indicated to colleagues that it was an issue in his background.
Several White House officials have lost their jobs over the past month since White House Chief of Staff John Kelly imposed a stricter security-clearance policy. Those changes were prompted by the departure of staff secretary Rob Porter, who quit after accusations of domestic violence were made public. Mr. Porter has denied the accusations, which had delayed final approval of his security clearance.
Mr. Kelly told reporters earlier this month that when he joined the White House as chief of staff this summer, he realized a large number of staffers still held interim clearances after more than seven months in the administration.
His review turned up “a couple spreadsheets worth of people” at the White House operating with interim security clearance after the first nine months of the Trump administration. He also found at least 35 officials who were inappropriately given top secret clearance.
