‘It’s burning people out’: Trump aides whine about ‘viciousness’ of private citizens cursing them out in public
Brad Reed 09 JUL 2018 AT 08:16 ET

Several Trump administration officials are increasingly feeling bitter about the nasty treatment they’re receiving from their fellow Americans when they venture out in public.

In a lengthy Washington Post story about Trump officials getting publicly shamed by private citizens, Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway reveals that a man recently told her she should be “ashamed” of herself while she was in a New Jersey grocery store.


Conway says that she responded to the insult with a stiff upper lip, however.

“What am I gonna do?” she tells the Post. “Fall apart in the canned vegetable aisle?”

Similarly, Trump aide Stephen Miller recently found himself getting cursed out by bartender at a sushi bar — and in response, the Post reports, Miller threw away the $80 worth of takeout sushi he had just bought from the restaurant.

4. It's so hard to enjoy your life when you're destroying the lives of others

[dalton99a]

11. That's what they do 24/7 in the White House

[Blue_Adept]

23. That's what I was saying

[workinclasszero]

28. Yeah, go figure

Ungrateful public doesn't appreciate all the hard work of stripping the last dime out of public funds to give to billionaires!

I mean they are killing ACA, social security, medicaid, SNAP, CHIP, for BILLIONAIRES folks, what a public service huh?

Not to mention the kidnapping of children and housing them in nice cages possibly never to see their parents again and being "lost" forever.

Those poor nazi pigs are not getting the kind of reaction from the public they deserve for sure!

[dalton99a]

33. +1. These are not low-level clerks, they are architects and implementers of Trump's diabolical plans

[workinclasszero]

38. Exactly

They are evil anti American racist 1% bastards who are used to the tongue baths they regularly get in the fox/reich wing media bubble.

The POS snowflakes can't take the blowback from REAL Americans when it's starting to happen all around them!

Wait till the midterms MFers!!!!!!!

[lagomorph777]

64. "Architect" is the right word for Stephen "Gerbil Goebbels" Miller.

He's the architect of the American Holocaust.

[LiberalBrooke]

77. Exactly.

They are all major players in promoting evil. Why do they think they should be immune from public reactions? It goes to show what a bubble they are living in. Keep it up, shame them at every opportunity.

[smirkymonkey]

89. +1000

Now they know how we feel. They have burning us out with their hate, cruelty, corruption and lack of humanity. Why should we care about their feelings?

They have brought this upon themselves. Quit your whining you pathetic little snowflakes!

[Achilleaze]

5. Whiney KGOP republican snowflakes get comforted by Evil Empire* russians so it's all good

HERE'S THE PATTERN:
republicans shit all over people, then go wall-to-wall whiney snowflake when some of the shit splatters back on to their Gucci loafers. D'oh. It's called karma. Ya kinda hafta deal with it, cozmic law being what it is and all.

* per ronald freaking reagan (R)

[lunatica]

72. I posted my D'oh! Way down thread before

I read the responses. I even wondered if anyone would get it because it became a legit word so long ago. But then I remembered this is DU and of course DUers would remember it!

[dalton99a]

118. +1. It is the same old pattern

every damn time

[JHB]

131. Bile crystallizes into the most delicate of snowflakes

[onecaliberal]

6. Hurrrrrrry someone call the whambulance.

[JustAnotherGen]

7. They have ALL the power in the world

They wanted to be in these positions - they propped 45 up and supported 'It'. This is called entering the valley of comeuppance.

[Siwsan]

8. So, what about the mobs of people surrounding them with applause? Do we hear cricket????

Since my tax dollars are paying their salaries, you can damn well be sure I'd be filling their ears with my opinions.

[kentuck]

9. What did they expect??

A parade?

[dalton99a]

10. Good people don't work for Donald Trump.

Those who work for evildoers are defiling themselves

[get the red out]

15. This!!!!!

We aren't talking about any reasonably normal administration, these people are the worst, most selfish, compassionless, lying bunch of narcissists ever put together. You are judged by the company you keep. Any kind of rudeness they encounter is completely deserved. They should be confronted.

[workinclasszero]

32. I know that's right!

Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas, Trump minions!

[Fred Sanders]

63. Good people did nothing during Naziism's ascent. If only the Nazi's were

confronted with their evil daily and covered by the 1930's media....

[SunSeeker]

97. THIS. SO THIS.

[dalton99a]

104. Instead:

[Fred Sanders]

106. Modern day Republican Party is about the same...complete with almost there

Nazi uniforms.

[workinclasszero]

119. Bingo

Instead the media of the day encouraged Jewish people to get along with Hitler and his Nazi party just like the media of today insists we must be civil to the fascist pig GOP and it's fuhrer that are destroying everything in this country that is good for the common citizen!

We see how that worked out back then so F the media!! RESIST!!!!!

[peekaloo]

12. Take that sushi!

Tough guy Miller sure showed that take out container!

[dalton99a]

20. Miller is the principal architect of Trump's racist policies

He belongs in a cage, not those babies

[IronLionZion]

41. We should find out where he'll have lunch and send that teacher mom after him

Since that worked on Pruitt

[Fred Sanders]

108. Sorry, but the principle architect is now 5 members of SCOTUS.

The "OK, Trump and his policies are clearly race-based, but there is a 1% actual policy component, so....good to go!" decision is the worst since Citizens United turned logic on it's head in order to get to the result.

[dalton99a]

111. +1. Everything he decrees is now ensconced in law

[griloco]

52. Methinks mefollows him around for free meals...

So what they're in the dumpster...it's where we'll all be diving soon

[fierywoman]

128. If the people who prepared the food knew it was him and had the same

feelings as the bartender, God knows what's in/on the food.

[Girard442]

13. Granted, harassing people is a bad way to address disagreements, but...

...when you close off every other avenue, what did you expect? .

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable. -- John F. Kennedy

[louis c]

55. It is not harassment, it is free speech

Harassment is a legal term, they are using the word in a social context.

What is happening is that citizens are utilizing their first amendment right of free speech.

Let's not fall for the "snowflakes" who are being paid with my money.

[TimeToGo]

70. I get your point

But harassment is more than a legal term. I think any of us would call it harassment if it were happening to us. And we would call it harassment if it were happening to members of the Hilary Clinton White House.

That said, I can't feel much sympathy for these people because they have chosen to work with evil and to do evil.

[lunatica]

80. No more bringing kid gloves to a gunfight

Politeness is lost on them. The big shock for them is they expected some major kiss ass to be one of the perks of their job in the White House. Even after they showed such disgustimg disrespect to the Obamas.

I hope their cars get keyed regularly too.

[louis c]

129. First Amendment

The right to petition the government, to peaceably assemble for redress of grievances, the right of free speech.

It doesn't say shit about where or when.

[TimeToGo]

130. Ok. Nothing to do with my point, but ok.

[nolabels]

14. Was logic of not sowing the seeds of a harvest not wanted is for ponder

Please don't explain to me why I have to work to pay taxes to keep these foolish people in office

[SamKnause]

16. EVIL FUCKING LIARS being called out for being EVIL FUCKING LIARS.

Imagine that.

Too bad, so sad.

I hope your children grow up and disown you !!!!

[Thomas Hurt]

18. "What am I gonna do?" she tells the Post. "Fall apart in the canned vegetable aisle?"

Admit you work for an amoral pig who is pushing a fascist and oppressive agenda and quit.

Seems like a reasonable and moral next step. Oh wait that is the problem...

[The Blue Flower]

19. When you stay in a minority bubble of supporters this is what happens

The majority of Americans know this admin stands against everything decent that we value as human beings and as Americans. You wander out of that bubble at your own peril. These creatures do not belong among human beings.

[IronLionZion]

21. Kellyanne eats canned vegetables!

not to judge any DUers who can't afford fresh veggies I promise I donate a lot of money to food banks, but it's hilarious that Kellyanne is buying that salty mushy stuff when she can afford better.

And then that Nazi bought $80 worth of sushi and threw it in the garbage. Nazis are going back to the historical Axis powers now? What's his next dinner, Italian? Maybe force himself into a Polish restaurant? A nice Austrian strudel for dessert?

[Paladin]

40. Kellyanne IS a Canned Vegetable! (nt)

[GetRidOfThem]

54. which makes her a cannibal! n/t

[malaise]

22. Get thee to the greatest page

Ostracize them - call them out. Racists bullies and fascist bullies will not be tolerated.

[dalton99a]

25. If they want peace and quiet, give us peace and quiet - RESIGN

or go jump off a bridge

[malaise]

30. They thought everyone would lie back, be civil and allow this coup

They will learn - all men and women are equal. They will not win.

[griloco]

57. BEWARE the Civil Serpent!!!

Nt

[malaise]

117. I see what you did there

Nicely played

[azureblue]

85. spot on

they thought we would be intimidated or maybe we wouldn't care,and they could just pull off their little take over with nary a hint of opposition. Surprise! Let's make their lives miserable as much as we can, non stop.

[SWBTATTReg]

107. Absolutely...and we will not rest, we will not stop, we will not let our freedoms to resist, to ...

protest, to do what Americans do best be taken away w/ the likes and scum like Kelly Anne, Stephen Miller, etc. If anything, we should do even more...what they are seeing is just the tip of the iceberg...

Hey remember, their supporters are the ones who wouldn't hesitate to elbow us or kick us when we're down...we'll never forget and make sure that you won't either...

[DemocraticSocialist8]

24. What's angering is that you have people on the Left who think this is a problem

People who want to place their comfort above the lives at stake.

[NewJeffCT]

26. Maybe the snowflakes need a safe space?

in a secure conference room where they can go around the table praising the awesomeness of Trump?

[dalton99a]

27. +1. Their natural habitat

[MrsCoffee]

29. Womp womp. Check the stats on anti-depressant use since you fucking deplorables stole the election.

I hope you face public scorn everyday of the rest of your life for being a part of the treasonous mafia.

Go Cheney yourselves.

[lpbk2713]

31. It's the political blowback from the divisiveness the GOP started.

Back in the Runny RayGun years they wanted to win no matter what the cost. The end would justify the means. Moderate repubs fell by the wayside. It was OK to lie cheat and steal in order to win a victory. Things have declined since then. And that is how they came up with a candidate like Trump. The current crop of whining (R)s apparently never heard the old axiom ... be careful what you wish for, you might just get it.

[JHB]

132. Moderate Republicans did not fall by the wayside...

Last edited Tue Jul 10, 2018, 05:54 AM - Edit history (1)

...they were forcibly frogmarched there by ideological conservatives out to takes complete control of their party. After all, conservatives wanted to return regulation and income taxes to Guilded Age levels... nonexistent. The Rockefeller Republicans were in the way of that, so conservatives eliminated any space for a middle ground and drove them to extinction.

And ever since they've been trying to do the same to the country as a whole.

[lpbk2713]

133. Yes that is true.

I probably should have expressed that point in greater detail.

[Adrahil]

34. Oh, the poor little Nazis are getting called out publicly. I think I have a tear...

... never mind, just allergies.

[uponit7771]

35. womp womp

[Raster]

43. and another...

...Womp! Womp!

[katmondoo]

36. I can only hope the harassment of the Trumpers continue

They should all hang their heads in shame

[lark]

39. Stop fucking over working class people and they will stop disturbing trumpian rw assholes.

They promote policies of hate and division then act like poor little snowflakes when they get pushback. No sympathy for sociopaths that plan and carry out stealing babies/children, not tracking them and sending some to disappear forever in foster homes (sex slavers or pedophiles?) while major donors make mega bucks caging the kids in overcrowded facilities, not providing emotional assistance to the youngest ones, not even changing the babies diapers or giving them any comfort when they cry, not providing interpreters who speak their dialects if they don't speak Spanish or English. They're human lives destroyers and deserve nothing but scorn and shame, all the time.

[Salviati]

42. Good. That's the fucking point.

To make them feel some consequences of the ills that they are causing society.

[badhair77]

44. Sad.

Their public shaming is of their own making. Now let’s talk about the real problems of real people.

[oasis]

45. Since Trumpazoids fear their food will get "extra attention"

They should learn how to cook and stay their asses home.

[workinclasszero]

46. One of the many perks of serving a fascist pig in the White House

Lots of 'extra sauce' in your restaurant meals, womp womp.

Enjoy it Trump cult servants!

[Roland99]

47. Someone call the Waahmbulance!

[bucolic_frolic]

48. They've torched everything Americans believe in

and we're supposed to say "Thank you. Hit me again."

[WinstonSmith4740]

49. Well, they've been complaining for years.

All you ever heard from these snowflakes is how being inside The Beltway was like living in a bubble. They were isolated from "real people" and situations. Well, welcome to the real world, boys and girls. We hate your boss, and since you don't have any qualms about working for him, that makes you a useless POS, too. And we'll tell you. The fucking gloves are off. Don't dare talk to us about "civility" after what you did to Obama for 8 years.

And as for Stephen Miller...I'm assuming he paid for the sushi before he threw it out. That'll teach 'em, huh Stephen?

[louis c]

50. Fucking No Good Nazi Snowflakes

[Downtown Hound]

51. "It's burning people out." God, I hope so.

Keep it up everybody!

[Honeycombe8]

53. He threw away his $80 sushi?!? That'll show 'em!

They really are snowflakes at heart, aren't they? They are so used to people on the left taking the high road, being silent & civil, and taking it on the chin. Being proper, assured that the checks and balances system will take care of the neo-Nazi policies of the government.

But when the checks and balances system isn't working because of corruption, when children are being harmed, when being civil simply allows the policies to go up a notch with each passing month...well, at least SAYING something is the right thing to do (within limitations). It's the least an American can do.

[irisblue]

56. Throwing away $80 worth of food..geez

how republican of you

[brush]

79. Racist bastard Miller probably realized his sushi had gotten extra...

attention, if you know what I mean.

[gratuitous]

58. Hold it

I thought conservatives were all for criticizing people for their lifestyle choices? Certainly Conway has chosen her current job; at least liberals aren't lobbying Congress to outlaw her and her choices, unlike what Conway's cohort is doing.

You can always make a different choice, Kellyanne.

[PatSeg]

59. "There's so much meanness"???

Have they been paying attention to their boss's rhetoric and behavior? This entire administration is the definition of "mean", they should be surprised if people respond justifiably.

[lunatica]

60. Well D'oh! Mission accomplished!

Did they think we were trying to still win them over?!

[lagomorph777]

61. Snowflakes are melting.

I am delighted to hear this. Most of these crooks will probably never face legal consequences, but at least throwing away $80 worth of sushi is some kind of consequence.

[ck4829]

62. K&R

[Freethinker65]

65. They want to be treated like celebrities by the media, but remain incognito with the public

They are given media attention when they say outlandish things and are given airtime for interviews. Then they get upset when they get challenged by the media or shamed/ridiculed by the public.

They knew, or should have known, to expect this.

[Texin]

66. They shouldn't be surprised.

Each and every day, they stretch themselves to ratchet up the level of unacceptable talk and behaviors, so they shouldn't at all be shocked or personally hurt that the coarseness is reciprocal. If they don't like what they're being subjected to, perhaps it's past time for them to question why it is that they find themselves in this situation. They need to either leave the situation in which they've prostrated themselves for or have a personal discussion with the one most guilty of its concoction. If Cheetolini found his acolytes abandoning him en masse, he might change his tone. Well, not likely, but when a movement dies it's usually because the participants lose interest.

[katmondoo]

67. Next the Supreme Court conservatives who want to get rid of Roe V Wade

[ffr]

68. That's oppression of the majority. Deal with it snowflakes!

[The Genealogist]

69. They can sure dish it out but can't take it..

Like most bullies.

[LonePirate]

71. If they don't like the protests, then they shouldn't do the un-American things that create protests.

[Bayard]

73. Burned out enough to quit?

All of them.

[MarianJack]

74. I don't really care, do you?

WOMP WOMP!

[workinclasszero]

78. So Miller threw away $80 worth of food.

In other words he had a hissy fit temper tantrum.

I really don't care, do you?

Womp womp!

In their own words, "womp, womp".

82. Bad Karma

Whatever goes around, comes around.

[azureblue]

83. in a word:

Good!

[Owens]

84. Learning Lesson

They dish the BS, lies and they encourage Trump to trash everyone and then suddenly when people push back, they act all surprised. Are they that clueless?

[awesomerwb1]

86. Miller threw away the sushi?

Well, since he had already paid for it.

Kellyanne is being a crybaby. She lover her job. She's just whining to later attack the Dems.

[Lifelong Protester]

87. Aww, burning them out!!

Too bad you decided to work for such a low life!!

[Mc Mike]

88. Tough garbonzos, repugs.

Nobody loves a nazi, but a whiny nazi is even worse.

[duforsure]

90. They shouldn't be,

Caging babies, destroying the environment, committing treason , allowing corruption to run wild, undermine Democracy, ignore the rule of law, corrupt elections, siding with a terrorist murderer putin over country. The list just goes on and on. Backing this madman is backfiring because you all DO have consequences, from the American people's voicies.

[catbyte]

91. Good! I'm so happy to see so many people refusing to let them get away with their vile, evil actions

It's hilarious that Miller threw out his takeout in a tantrum. Although it was probably on his White House expense account and We The People actually paid for that asshole's discarded sushi.

[Blaukraut]

92. Reminds me of an old German saying my mom had

when I whined about mistreatment after basically earning it by my actions: "Wie man in den Wald ruft, so kommt es auch raus" (Whichever way you shout into the woods is how you will hear your echo come back out)

[SansACause]

93. Welcome to the occupation

#Resist

[AllyCat]

94. You wanna work for Hair Furor, you need to buckle up.

[SunSeeker]

95. Good. Too bad their destruction of our country is not burning them out.

If public approbation is what it takes, I'm glad the public is doing so.

Silence and polite acquiescence to these traitorous scumbags when they walk among us only normalizes them.

[PatrickforO]

96. You know what this reminds me of?

When I was an undergraduate, many years ago, I spent a lot of time studying the 20th century from around 1920 through the 1980s.

As part of this study, I read a lot of literature written soldiers of the various nations fighting in the Second World War, both axis and allies.

One vignette happens in France around 1943. A couple of German landsers (regular Wehrmacht, not SS) were having a picnic in the French countryside along the shore of a small river. They see some French people on the other shore and wave. The French people shout angrily at the two Germans, throw some rocks and then run away.

The young German landser poignantly expresses his shock at the feverish hatred the French people showed for he and his comrade, their anger and their fear. From his perspective, you see, the whole war was a lark, a happy extension of the fun camping and hiking activities they did in Hitler Youth.

Now, I was struck, so many years ago when reading this innocent account. Note that I use the word 'innocent' on purpose, because the young German who wrote the account was still quite innocent. He had purposely ignored rumors of camps, and any signs of the horrible things Hitler's legions were doing. Of course, later in his account, he expresses shock and dismay at the concentration camps, the Holocaust, the utter destruction of Germany and so on.

But, at that time, on that idyllic day, there in Vichy France on the picturesque shore of a bubbling little river, his innocence was first shaken.

**********************

Well, now that was kind of a long thing. Sorry.

But think about it this way - for many of these Trumpers, they've had decades of propaganda, from Rambo to Reagan, from Vietnam to Desert Storm, from 911 to the drone policies. As Fox watchers and AM conservative talk radio listeners, they have been propagandized to gloss over violations of human rights in favor of the national interest. They have been well coached by very well-funded 'news' sources to ignore things like torture, rendition and the separation of children from their families. The Koch brothers, after all, do have some government contracts. And they want MORE.

So, for many rank and file Trumpers, it is still a lark - hey now we're in power. Let's ignore these snow flakes and take it for a ride!

Like the young German, the naive ones will continue to have their innocence shaken by demonstrations like this. My hope is that enough of them will be awakened to how brutal this regime is before it is too late. Already stories of some ICE people who have resigned over these brutal policies. I suspect scores of people have resigned in the face of often illegal and always thoughtless and casually brutal orders.

I don't know how all this will turn out, but I still have some hope.

[Vogon_Glory]

98. My sympathy is limited for Trump apparatchiks

My sympathy is limited for Trump administration apparatchiks. On the one hand, I do believe in civility, and hope to see it restored in my lifetime. On the other hand, this Administration has been practicing the politics of cruelty almost since Inauguration Day, and anyone who works for it ought to have the good sense to realize it.

EDIT: As the old saying goes: “Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas.”

[Fla Dem]

99. Oh Boo Hoo. Womp Womp. You work for a traitor, get used to it.

[Raven123]

100. They seem to forget that the majority of the US is not a Trump rally

And in some of those other places, people are tired of being on the receiving end of bullying by Trump, his administration and his supporters. They are simply reciprocating.

[catbyte]

101. This is my favorite Twitter reply to those poor, put-upon White House staffers...

103. "Stephen Miller recently found himself getting cursed out by bartender at a sushi bar"

Glad somebody found his ass.

The evil these people not only spew hate and promote actual violence, but legally enact it via their draconian policies, which has harmed so many.

[WePurrsevere]

105. Oh well, too bad, so sad. You sowed 'the wind', now you 'reap the whirlwind'*...

*Reference: the Bible, Hosea 8

There are many things I care very deeply about like innocent babies & children being torn from their parents; the elderly, disabled, sick getting the health care and financial help they need; human and civil rights, equality, legitimate, fair & uncompromised elections; treating animals humanely... things like that that truly decent human beings care about and that you, Trump and those who aid and abet you, like Teapublicons & Putin, obviously do NOT. You fascist buttwipes getting a good dose of karma with more on the way is something I feel only a bit of schadenfreude about.

That some people have found their spine and actually confront them about some of the scandalous things they are doing, after all, they work for Us.

116. hey could resign, but that would require morals and integrity.

they would rather whine about how unfair life is.

[niyad]

121. I truly hope that ANY person who works for the treasonous bastard is afraid to leave home or

office for fear of running into the citizens exercising their 1A rights.

[meadowlander]

122. The seagull that ultimately ate that sushi probably made more productive use of it.

If only we could burn this crew out by confronting them with their awfulness.

[bdamomma]

124. getting a taste

of their own medicine, hey if they don't like being criticized let them move to another country!!

Fucking Stephen Miller, it's rough isn't it? too bad.

[meadowlander]

126. Get back to us when you've spent 21 years in public service and then your boss calls you out

publicly on twitter, sics an entire cable new network on you to cover his own criminal ass, and then fires you the day before you qualify for your pension.

I guess that's the same as someone telling you you should be ashamed of yourself in a grocery store.
