Not everyone is lucky enough to be born into a sinecure like Jared and Ivanka ...

You've still got some mushroom sauce on your chin there Scoot, might want to attend to that.

Did you see that Don Jnr has been reassigned to being responsible for getting water into Donald's mouth and Jarrod is tasked with carrying him down ramps.

Quote:

Biden told a story about how years ago, an accountant told him he could charge the Senate for gas he used in his car but he declined, saying: “Here’s how I look at it: The foul line is 15 feet away from the basket. Never get me closer than 17 feet, because it really is a matter of the public trust.”

Right, so he's a cleanskin, so precious, so much better than the rest of us.

Wouldn't you people rather have a prez who's s little bit corrupt?

I saw that, Dnarever, but the big fella deserves a little pampering after everything he's done for the country, surely.

Let's not worry about Ivanka, she is planning her comeback

IVANKA TRUMP THINKS HER “POLITICAL REEMERGENCE” IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER

Quote:

When Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner took jobs in their father/father-in-law’s administration, they reportedly struck an unintentionally hilarious agreement between themselves that if the opportunity arose in the future, they wouldn‘t argue over which one of them would run for president—she’d be the one to do it. That they weren‘t remotely qualified to even work in the White House, let alone run the country, was clearly a thought that never entered either of their heads, despite all the vast open space in there; instead, they were apparently already considering campaign slogans and potential running mates and the extremely important question of whether or not Ivanka would enter the Capitol for her inauguration perched on a daybed carried by a quartet of shirtless men, Cleopatra-style.

Fast-forward four years and the idea of Ivanka holding any higher office whatsoever seems even more ridiculous than it did in 2016, in light of the whole violent insurrection she basically encouraged. And yet! The former first daughter apparently still believes she has a bright political future, and that people would agree if only they knew about all of the good work she allegedly did securing pardons for the poor and downtrodden from her father.

Comrade Joe??... He's centre-right on the world democracy scale...

Trump would have had more in common with the real Comrade Joe... As he does with Putin and Kim Jong-Un and would have had with Kim Jong-il, Kim Il-sung, Mussolini and Franco... Maybe even with Idi Amin.

Indeed he will.

https://au.news.yahoo.com/fired-on-the-spot-biden-issues-stern-warning-to-staff-...

Sleepy Joe wants to avoid the tactics of his predecessor; a White House steeped in a culture of bullying and intimidation. By all accounts, Trump enjoyed this dynamic. He told Bob Woodward he cultivated it.

This culture gave rise to the most toxic administration in modern US history, but it also had an effect on the rest of the country: Trump's management style spread into schools. This bullying culture got a name: the Trump effect.

https://www.the74million.org/study-on-post-election-student-bullying-adds-teeth-...

Yes, while Melania worked on her anti-bullying project, "Be Best", state education departments were funding campaigns in schools to eradicate the culture her own husband cultivated.

https://people.com/politics/melania-trump-says-cyberbullying-has-deadly-impact/

So yes, Bias, here's hoping Sleepy Joe is able to turn this around. I'm sure you'll agree: what goes on in the White House influences the rest of the country. Funding anti-bullying campaigns in schools while the president models bullying is a waste of resources. Running a campaign to stop online bullying while your husband uses social media to promote hate speech is rather counter-productive.

This was, of course, the view of Twitter, Facebook and others, who banned him. But for evidence of the impact of a president's words on his followers, look no further than the Capitol rioters themselves:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-rioters-testimony/2021/01/16/01b3d...

"Trump told us to do it." For many if not most, that's their legal defence. They crossed the line from civil protest to criminal violence based on what the president said. If a president could have that effect upon his followers, imagine the impact upon his own employees.
