Trump Fires 500 Obama Staffers… Dems Panic
End the Fed ^ | 11/17/16

Posted on 11/19/2016 9:21:13 AM PST by Enlightened1

Donald Trump is reportedly firing around 500 of Barack Obama’s staffers, as he plans to completely fill the White House with his own team.

The Federalist Papers reported that though it’s likely that Hillary Clinton would have let most of Obama’s people go so that she could hire her own staff, Trump’s win closed the door on the possibility of any of Obama’s staffer sticking around. The fired staffers have gotten so desperate about their employment situation that Obama has brought in representatives from Facebook, Instagram and other companies to offer insights into the job market. According to CBS News, Linkedin officials are helping Obama’s staff find ways to market their skills.

Georgetown University, which is located close to the White House, has designed a custom professional development program they call “Future44,” Obama is the 44th president, to teach Obama’s political appointees how to build their lives after the White House. The program is free of charge thanks to an anonymous donor, and participants register for either four 2-hour evening sessions or one 8-hour “boot camp.”

“We designed this unique curriculum to help these staffers think through how to market themselves or market their competencies,” said Kelly Otter, dean of Georgetown’s School of Continuing Studies.

“The transition out of government is a reality for most appointees, which brings both excitement about prospects for the next chapter or a long-awaited chance to recharge batteries, and a keen awareness about a big, impending change,” said White House spokeswoman Jennifer Friedman.

President Trump has started with the Democrat Lobbyists.

500 we know of so far... and he is not even in office.

Here is a list of what President Trump has accomplished a lot so far, and he is not even in office. Here is the breakdown.

1. Averted war and a possible nuclear exchange with Russia.

2. Trump and Putin to meet in person for crunch talks on defeating ISIS with ‘strong and enduring relationship’

3. Dealt the death blow to TPP.

4. Destroyed both the Bush and Clinton political machines that have played a significant role in US Politics since the 1980s.

5. Dow Jones seeing its best performing week since 2011.

6. Canada and Mexico have said they are willing to renegotiate NAFTA.

7. On Thursday, two days after Election Day, the Department of Veterans Affairs sent a letter to Congress informing it that controversial plans to pay for transgender veterans’ gender reassignment surgeries had been abandoned.

8. DEFCON level at lowest level in years. Reset Russian/U.S. relations.

9. Killed Globalism and Soros and co. in total panic mode.

12. Japanese prime minister flies to NY to meet Trump – calls him ‘strong leader’

13. Will stop billions of dollars to UN global warming group, and direct money instead to US States.

14. From the NYT: “Surprisingly, some Iraqis seemed less offended by Mr. Trump’s comments linking terrorism to Islam than American liberals. Iraqis have endured years of Islam being used to justify mass killing, and some see Mr. Trump as a truth-teller in calling out Islam — or a certain brand of it — as the problem. “

This is something that GWB didn’t do, as part of his attempt to show he wasn’t partisan and could bridge the sides. It cost him dearly, as Clintonites gummed the works and popped up as as ‘Bush Administration sources’ making crazy in the media.

No; unfortunately reality is not coming their way, whether we like it or not, these people are connected.
It may only be with the most idiotic liberal companies in the country or the world, but they are connected.
They will all have jobs, benefits, and reasonable salaries.
Check with them in a year or two and you will find that they are still in the business of SCREWING AMERICA, it won’t be as easy for them to do it, but they will still be doing it.

Keep someone who knows where the bathrooms are.

Bad idea!

I would want somebody who knows where the "appropriate" bathrooms are.
