Trump Drops Ratcliffe Like Hot Potato

[candycorn]

Another slavering Donald Trump sycophant and stooge bites the dust.

The Donald Trump crotch-grip of death has another victim. GOP lawmakers allow Donald Trump to grab them by the crotch. Ted Cruz and his ilk can testify to that after Cruz rolled over and kissed Trump's feet after Trump slagged Cruz's father and wife.

GOP lawmakers are all flaccid. "The rule holds: Everything Trump touches dies."

Ratlciffe "was about as qualified to be the Director of National Intelligence as Hope Hicks is to pilot the next SpaceX flight into orbit."

John Ratcliffe (R-Loser) Gets the Full Trump Treatment
The resume-padding backbencher raved at Mueller on camera and found himself at the peak of Trump’s regard. But like a gram of pure coke, there are consequences when the fun stops.

The rule holds: Everything Trump touches dies.
From standing on the verge of one of Washington’s most powerful offices to a tweeted shrug of dismissal from the President, Congressman John Ratcliffe (R-Coffeeboy) is the latest, inevitable victim of the career-ending, reputation-shattering career curse that is Donald Trump.
As the two-term Congressman’s flimsy resume hit the light of day, the petty, easily discovered lies and contractions in his record exploded in his face like Trump 20 seconds into a lapdance. Far from being the terrorist-fighting superstar federal prosecutor, Ratcliffe turned out to be a bog-standard U.S. attorney. His sins were little beyond the usual campaign resume fluffing, but it turned out he was about as qualified to be the Director of National Intelligence as Hope Hicks is to pilot the next SpaceX flight into orbit. If Ratcliffe walked off the street to apply for a job at the Office of National Intelligence and told the same lies about his record he told to his constituents, he’d be laughed out of the room.

Some blame the president himself. Trump has complained that the vetting process is “too ugly and too disgusting” and, at times, has chosen to follow his gut instincts instead of the counsel of his advisers – with occasionally disastrous results.

This is Trump. You can't tell him anything. It's obvious that the job is too much for him and he is too lazy and too much of a narcissist.
