    Interesting wording... "remain consistent" and "any issues we can't ride out". Which could mean... "hey, lets keep our stories straight so we can get away with it"...

    I remember posting back at the beginning of the clown show that no professional should want to have their name associated with Trump. I see the wisdom of my career advice is bearing out.

    Thanks Dump!

    ...I guess it took a stroll into a literal swamp without any drainage, for some of them to realize just how dirty things have really gotten...

    ...Rex Tillerson or anyone else, again, for me, doesn't get to claim any moral high ground or realigning of a moral compass out in front of everybody else who already knew better...

    ...and condemnation of Tillerson or anyone else is ultimately counterproductive, if a bit satisfying, at the end of the day as well.

    I prefer changed behavior to blubbering apologies, personally...one tends to hold more water, to me, than the other one does...

    ...I mean...if we're all about this business of draining swamps and the like....

    LOL... Kellyanne Conway referred to "alternative facts" and now Rudy says "a different version of the truth." Funny that can't call it what it really is... a lie.
