"Rex.....You're FIRED!!!!"

he dropped a meteor on T.Rex :/



btw why thef did Hope Hicks resign? she had a good well-paid high-ranking job & she was one of the few along with Sessions who had "immunity" she was basically Trump's ho I mean work-wife & had no risk of being fired (Sessions either though I'm not sure why maybe he has something on Trump?)

it did (the "you're fired" line probably appears in 100s of films - that's why generic 2 word sentences tend to make shoddy cultural references)



anyway even among conservatives Hope Hicks' resignation is still a complete mystery

Maybe Trump gave her $130,000 too

[SoulReaver]

that'd be like alimony

Tillerson agreed with the UK that Russia might have had a hand in the poisoning of people in Salisbury England. Day later he is fired.

Made me go, "Woops... another one bites the dust." Perhaps, other GOP candidates should refrain from being endorsed by the Trump family. It sorta is starting to look like a bad omen.

The PA special election was due to the prior officeholder being run out after a sex scandal. Any kind of scandal will almost always benefit the opposing party in the next election.

And another tidbit... the 18th district may not even exist come this fall....

You mean like conveniently ignoring that trump carried the district by 20 points, and now it's lost?
Or did you conveniently ignore that?
Or that is has been republican for the last 13 years

And the former office holder was Republican... and no doubt Saccone lost some support simply due to party affiliation. After a scandal, some folks will simply vote for the other party regardless of who the candidate is. I'm not saying that's the only factor, it shouldn't have even been close, but it is a factor. And with the razor thin margin Lamb won by.....
