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

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.

Many of Obama’s staffers will likely end up in liberal cities like New York or San Francisco working for companies that cater to millennials such as Amazon, Snapchat, Google, Vice, etc.

“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.

This is nothing new. It’s called “Securing inside the wires.”

Brothels and gay bathhouses all over the country will be flooded with applicants. I can’t think of any other industry these worthless parasites could thrive in.

I hope he keeps it up. The downfall of the Bush administration was trying to play nice with these people... and they undermined everything he did.

I recall #42 refused to fire all the moles from the previous administration, costing many American lives.

The only skills most Democrats have is their connections or their grievance group membership. I recall a news segment interview after President Reagan shut down a federal program. This flappy-wristed “man” said, “Oh, my goodness! I have no idea what I’ll do. I’ve never had a real job.”

Doesn’t every president do this. Have them find a new job at the employment office.

The obsequious ass-kissing of a narcissist is a skill?
