WND:

Thousands of President Obama appointees and hundreds of Hillary Clinton campaign staffers are struggling to look for employment after Democrats lost the White House in November.

Since Donald Trump won the presidential election, there have been far fewer employment opportunities for Democrats in the Washington, D.C. area, Politico reported over the weekend.

There is less demand for Democratic services now that 4,000 White House administration jobs are no longer available for the staff of 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Staffing opportunities on Capitol Hill have also dwindled after Democratic Senate candidates like Russ Feingold and Katie McGinty lost in 2016.

“It feels like there are just thousands of us trying to find a job, and there are no jobs,” Mira Patel, a longtime Clinton aide, told Politico.
Obama staffers have explored moving to the private sector but have found that the shock of Trump’s win has lowered their chances.

An Obama administration official said that he was negotiating with two tech companies in November, but after the election, and “there was a pretty clear about-face.” The official noted that another company was “far less euphemistic in saying we need Republicans, not Democrats.”
The struggle of Democrats to find jobs in the private sector extends to trade associations, lobbying firms, and corporate government affairs offices, Politico noted.

Anastasia Kessler-Dellaccio, a 35 year-old woman who quit her job to run Foreign Policy Professionals for Hillary, has been “rattled” since the results of the election due to Trump’s values.

“I think people, myself included, are trying to figure out, ‘How do I recalibrate my dreams?'” Kessler-Dellaccio said of herself and fellow Democrats reeling from Clinton’s loss.

Maybe they should do something useful for a change, and get jobs in one of the factories Trump is bringing back.

many of them would make great Fudge Packers..

im sure groggy would give them a job if they came to australia ;)

Have no fear, the great Washington revolving door system remains.

According to OpenSecrets.org, there are 3,739 congressional staffers in the OpenSecrets Revolving Door who lobbied in 2012.  Meaning there are currently 3,739 staff members working for our congressmen, who were paid corporate lobbyists four years ago.  If their congressman is voted out, they will just go back to lobbying again.
Michael Sozan of CAP is a famous LGBT lobbyist who has used the revolving door in between employment with several congressmen.  Paul Ryan's chief staff member is another revolver...

There are jobs as farm hands going unfilled, learn to be productive rather than progressive.

A lot can be read into that.

and what about the CLINTON FOUNDATION>...or are all the jobs taken by people called Clinton???>>

I have a feeling a lot of them will be employed come the 2018 mid-terms.

You know both of those are misleading.

Texuuus (a red state) is one of the biggest takers of government money for EBT and welfare. No use in pointing any facts to you, Texuun. Considering your state is 10th in high school drop out rates.

Again, there you go again with your Texuun stupidity. Most of the farms in "Trump country" are owned by ConAgra and/or Monsanto - you know, those people Trumptards used to rail against for their GMO products?

Looks like Nobama 'lucked-in'.....

Tell me again about all the places you traveled, firretroll. Like Texuus where you didn't end up getting your fat ass kicked?

Or will mumsy let you leave your bridge long enough to say?

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Awe.....poor poor Marlon.....

Except that PA and OH will hopefully stay red states now, if President Trump does a good job with the economy, society and foreign policy.
