This article about how unhappy everyone is in the Trump WH is heartbreaking, truly a tragedy.

‘Everyone is just tired’: Trump increasingly isolated in beleaguered, crisis-weary White House

http://www.rawstory.com/2017/05/everyone-is-just-tired-trump-increasingly-isolated-in-beleaguered-crisis-weary-white-house/



President Donald Trump’s fellow Republicans in Congress are showing signs of going their own way, both on politics and policy, determined to salvage what they can of their agenda on healthcare and tax reform in the wake of one of the most difficult weeks of any American presidency.

At the same time, Trump’s failure to fill senior roles at federal agencies means he does not have a cadre of loyalists who can help rein in a bureaucracy that many in Trump’s orbit believe are out to leak information intended to damage the president. That has worsened the isolation of the White House in a city that relies on friends and allies to shake off a crisis.

The result is problems on multiple fronts: a government whose bonds with Congress, federal agencies and the public look increasingly fractured; an ambitious but stalled program of reforms; and a president whose low approval ratings threaten his party’s control of Congress in the 2018 midterm elections.

Trump and his beleaguered staff, some White House aides told Reuters, feel besieged by a parade of negative stories and abandoned by fellow Republicans on Capitol Hill, as the furor over the firing of FBI Director James Comey and allegations that Trump tried to influence the probe into Russian meddling in last year’s election show little sign of abating.

How much respect do we show it? It is, after all, a sack of shit.

[tavernier]

[Chemisse]

6. Poor baby. Who knew being president could be so hard?

[barbtries]

7. yes. boo hoo

oh wait, i think i'm beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel. i think i'm beginning to believe that this administration will not last long enough to turn my country into another Haiti, or Somalia. i can't dance yet, i must continue to resist, but on balance for sane people, it's been a great week.

Ailes even died, and Fox got rid of a racist only days after he offended. perhaps we have turned a corner.

[Nonhlanhla]

8. Excuse me while I go looking for my tiniest violin

to play them a song of sympathy.

Their agenda is to make others unhappy. So let them stew in their unhappiness.

[nikibatts]

9. Yeah, good thing he didn't fire the travel staff. That would have been horrific!

[DinahMoeHum]

10. Fuck 'em. They knew he was a snake when they signed up.

[justhanginon]

11. Just a quick reminder to you nitwits;

You would have have avoided all your sadness and angst very simply.
YOU COULD HAVE AND SHOULD HAVE VOTED FOR THE SMART LADY IN THE PANTS SUIT!!!!
No sympathyfor your really stupid decisions.

[Girard442]

13. Don't you know we're riding...on the Schadenfreude Express.

Apologies to Crosby, Stills, and Nash.

[brush]

29. And it's a feel-good ride.

[dembotoz]

14. With all the job security of a summer job

[OldRedneck]

15. Breaks my heart

"Everyone is just tired!"

Well, boofuckinghoo, snowflake.

I did three tours in Vietnam. I got tired. Tired of stuffing the body parts of 20-year-old kids into body bags. Tired of humping a 50-60 pound rucksack day in and day out. Tired of squatting to shit in a hole in the ground. Tired of going a month without a shave or a shower. Tired of eating cold rations. Tired of living on edge, not knowing if the next bullet had my name on it.

These “White House aides” sleep every night between clean sheets. They use sparkling clean toilets. They get three hot meals a day with all the snacks they could ask for plus hot showers whenever they want. And, when it’s all over and they no longer are in the White House, they’ll be hired as highly-paid lobbyists.

You’ll understand if I have no sympathy for these spoiled snowflakes.

And don't get me started on single mothers, without health insurance, holding down two or three part-time jobs. They never get tired. Right?

[KingCharlemagne]

21. +Infinity - nt

[Permanut]

34. Thanks, OldRedneck..

for your service and for your post. You speak for a lot of vets, including me. I'm Vietnam era, but I got lucky and got assigned to a tin can out of Virginia. But a little sympathy is in order, ya know, they could break a fingernail texting about their tough lives.

[Historic NY]

16. Buck up snowflakes......

those drinking parties at the EEOB might not be resume material. Makes one wonder if they are celebrating him going away .

[dalton99a]

20. Fascist snowflakes

[Soxfan58]

17. See if they would like

Having their health insurance cut.

[MontanaMama]

18. Boo effing hoo.

I'm heart broken for our country. I'm heart broken for the families who will lose loved ones to untimely deaths because they can't get health insurance. My heart breaks for the assault on our national monuments and parks that will be harmed irreparably by this administration. My heart is broken for the environment, our public schools and the National Endowment for the Arts. My heart has broken more times since the 8th of November 2016 than I thought possible and I know that I'm not alone. So, the fatigue of this mean spirited, incompetent bunch of assholes means nothing to me. Fuck those people.

[dalton99a]

19. Nobody put a gun to their heads and forced them to work for Donald Trump

[Mr. Ected]

24. Pssst: He's Gone. You can walk away, walk away

[catbyte]

25. I just can't seem to work up even a speck of sympathy for any of them.

They knew he was a sham, an empty vessel, a grifting con man who was utterly incapable of governing. They saw how he treated staff during the campaign, the undisciplined way he managed his campaign and hiw he lived his life. They knew exactly what he was but decided to hitch their wagons to his despicable star anyway. They obviously learned nothing from Watergate--that it's never the higher-ups who spend 18-24 months in Danbury Minimum Security prison, but staff.

They an live with it. I couldn't are less how upset or depressed they are.

[3catwoman3]

30. Oh, I am stealing this.

There will be plenty of chances to use it.

Many thanks for the hearty laugh.

[JHB]

31. Good you have a spare. An inventory says all my rats asses are accounted for...

None have been given.

[MFM008]

26. Eat it

Bitches.

[NastyRiffraff]

27. Cry me a river

Any of these people could easily get better paying private sector jobs. They're there for a reason; they thought they could ride that bandwagon to fame and fortune. Now many of them are way past being "besieged" by negative stories;" they're facing high legal fees as they become "persons of interest." Oh, well.

[greatauntoftriplets]

28. ...

[liberalla]

32. ah... warms my heart :)

[Sugar Smack]

33. It would do them all good to just take next week off:

Call it a mental health week. Go on, do it!! See what it's like to get NINE hours of sleep. Just don't come in Monday, unplug your phone. Remember when you used to eat breakfast? Do it. You'll get so used to feeling like a person again, the week will go by, like THAT.
