Trump gets turned down again

[Jack]

That is a LOT more than funny.

Christie is a bum...and he just gave Trump the finger in the loudest way possible.

When I heard that Chris Christie turned him down...I truly laughed out loud!

Mick Mulvaney is another swamp creature from SC.

Tenure
During his time in the U.S. House, Mulvaney aligned himself with the Tea Party movement.[32][33] He was a founding member of the Freedom Caucus.[34]

He opposed gun control initiatives and the Affordable Care Act.[35][36][37]

Pay-to-play
In April 2018, Mulvaney told a room of banking industry executives and lobbyists that as a Congressman he refused to take meetings with lobbyists unless they contributed to his congressional campaigns.[38] He said, "If you are a lobbyist who never gave us money, I did not talk to you. If you are a lobbyist who gave us money, I might talk to you."[38] At the top of the hierarchy, he added, were his constituents. “If you came from back home and sat in my lobby, I talked to you without exception, regardless of the financial contributions,” said Mr. Mulvaney.[38]

An April 2018 Daily Beast analysis of Office of Management and Budget (OMB) visitor logs and campaign finance disclosures found that Mulvaney had as OMB Director met with at least eight registered lobbyists and six executives who donated to his congressional campaigns.[39]

Government shutdown
According to the New York Times, Mulvaney took "a hard line on spending during President Obama’s term, vowing not to raise the nation’s debt limit and embracing the term 'Shutdown Caucus' because of his willingness to shut the government down instead."[36]

In 2015, Mulvaney voted against a government-funding resolution, which would have prevented a government shutdown, in part because it included funding for Planned Parenthood.[40]

Explaining his vote, Mulvaney said, "This is not about women's health. It’s about trafficking in pieces of dead children."[40] After his appointment as head of the OMB in 2017, he reiterated his conditional position of support for a shutdown

trump was and is desperate. No one would take the job so he pleaded with Mulvaney, as though this guy has a clue as what to do

You may be wrong, trump told us he was only going to hire the best people.

I'm sorry, but I don't see Mulvaney as an improvement over Lurch, I mean, Kelly!

Mulvaney can't run a crew! Trump wants to run the crew anyway, and now Mulvaney will only be a yes man!

So basically, we went from Lurch to Barney Fife here!

That won't keep Donald out of trouble!

At least Lurch tried to keep the president out of trouble by making Donald Trump think about the consequences of his actions. But what could he do, when the president just wants to be the Jerry Jones and dictate all the decisions for the team- coaches input not welcome.

Kelly will be like a bat-out-of-hell escaping the White House COS job!

And he'll end up like Hillary, happily retiring from public service, sitting on the couch, sipping a glass of wine, writing books and saying, "Oh! What a relief it is"!

And you gotta trust me on this, Mulvaney will not even come close to filling the void Kelly leaves behind.

The Trump Train just lost it's only engineer! It's just a runaway train now, as there are no more adults left in the Oval Office!

I don't know why anybody would want to work for Trump in his White House considering the total wall to wall, 24-7-365 leftist negative media blitz aimed at him, his family and his administration. I don't know why anybody would want to be President under such conditions especially a multi-billionaire with several golf courses and the most beautiful wife that ever served in the White House. If I were Trump I'd tell my every detractor to "SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASS" and I'd head for the golf course and the fishing rod.

Exactly. There are too many Obama holdovers still in government positions who will leak info if they think it's damaging to Trump.

A fucking MEN!

Mulvaney did destroy the CFPB. He is a right-wing sycophant and will do the dirty deeds the wealthy demand. The wealth gap is worse than the Gilded Age and getting worse all the time. The plutocrats are getting their Xmas list of gifts to themselves and Mulvaney is checking off a lot of those items. I know, lets eliminate taxes on the rich, then all that wealth will tinkle down upon us all. It has worked so well since Reagan started it.

[katzgar]

But a lot of folks believe Christie is actually a coward and bullshitter.

Your presumption that trump is scraping the bottom of the barrel is correct

[Nordberg]

Just read his fucking tweets. Hillary had a server that rightys claim was not protected enough, yet you are silent on Daffy doing business on his phone. You guys have no shame.
