Jared Kushner should get zero credit for the simple act of daring to tell an adult person the truth.

(2,626 posts)shows how far we've fallen from the standards of accepted behavior by the one who holds the highest office in the land. He's the president and he can't handle bad news of any kind.
His own staff can't be honest with him because no one knows how he will react. They're afraid of him.
Newspapers are reporting this absurdity and instead of the story shocking us (like it would under normal circumstances) we're not even surprised. All those in his circle have adapted to his severe mental illness, his anger and cruelty. That is really not sound, functional or healthy in any way.
This horrible nightmare of an administration has left its mark on all of us. Some have suffered beyond measure. But we've all been changed in some way by it.
Trump is a danger. None of us knows how he will ultimately handle the first loss of his life that he can't buy his way out of.

(15,392 posts)What could he do to anyone? Fire them? That just might make the more employable for future jobs than the people who hang around to the very end. Yell at them? Probably happens every time. Get physical? I'm sure just about everyone in his administration could walk faster backwards than he can forwards if he charged them.

(6,618 posts)WHY is everyone SO concerned about Shitler adhering to norms?
He's NOT going to do it.
Period.
He probably won't invite Joe to the White House for their meeting.
He probably won't go to Joe's Inauguration.
And I shudder to think what he'd leave for Joe in the drawer of the Resoloute Desk.
Trump... that boy ain't right.
So let's just do what WE need to do, and ignore the SOB.
