If your expertise is founded on contempt for the President and all things conservative, fine, be gone, foul plague. Do not darken our doorstep again.

Or, as my neighbor would say, between puffs on her Marlborough, “And don’t let the screen door hit you on the butt.” (Cough!)

My first experience with the State Department was back in the 1960’s. It wasn’t a good one either, Arrogant... That’s the best way to describe the people I met and their biggest and most chosen weapon was ‘money’. They threw money at everything and expected it to fix all problems.

All it did was make the ‘people’ they were assisting feel jealous and at worse infuriated with Americans as a whole. Just because of who we had as our representatives. Arrogant, university educated ‘no-nothings’ who thought they knew the answers to ‘everything’ that the people of the country they were in were dealing with.

Good. Condoleeza Rice should have done years ago, then maybe Bush’s second term would not have ended with Hussein in power.

Knowledge of hookers and blow is not really expertise. The paradise that is the middle east. Well done department of state.

Where do they think they are going to market their expertise outside the state department? If very many leave then the welfare roles are sure to grow. Trump is making America great again one minute at a time. He appears to be working 18 hours per day while congress can’t seem to get in 18 hours per week.

I doubt these state department experts actually did meaningful work 18 hours per week either.

“Disdain” doesn’t even begin to describe my opinion of State Department swamprats.

For over 80 years, the State Department has been compromised and actively working against America’s interests.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Let’s just take a look at the world their expertise has given us...
Wait...
Nevermind

We can only hope that with the departure of these failed State Department officials, their failed policies will be swept out along with them.

Exactly what I was thinking when I read the headline. Literally the only two positive things I can say about these fools are: 1) thanks for saving us the trouble of firing you; 2) thanks for showing us what doesn't work.

I believe they should all be looking not just for a new job but an entire career change. Politics, influence, diplomacy...definitely, demonstrably not things they are good at. I would say used car salesman but even they have to be good with people. Maybe the best bet for these failed flunkies from State would be as toll collectors or something similar. That way they'd have only the briefest, most superficial interaction with people, yet they'd still get to handle money every day.

They've done so much for American exceptionalism...
