    “I’ve got another nut job her who thinks he’s running things: Are Trump and (Church Lady) Kelly heading for divorce?”

    “Trump has increasingly been chafing at the media narrative that he needs Kelly to instill discipline on his freewheeling management style. “The more Kelly plays up that he’s being the adult in the room—that it’s basically combat duty and he’s serving the country—that kind of thing drives Trump nuts,” a Republican close to the White House said. In recent days, Trump has fumed to friends that Kelly acts like he’s running the government while Trump tweets and watches television. “I’ve got another nut job here who thinks he’s running things,” Trump told one friend, according to a Republican briefed on the call. A second source confirmed that Trump has vented about Kelly, mentioning one call in which Trump said, “This guy thinks he’s running the show.”

    I wonder if there’s any correlation between what companies are doing with their new windfalls and the relationship that the companies’ executive leadership has with Trump. What will Papa John’s do?

    Kimberly Clark has been looking to sell off its 100 year old plus facility between Neenah and Kimberly, Wisconsin. I expect that to be one of them.That’s around 200 white collar office/accounting and 450 factory and shipping. That’s also an area Trump won.

    I’m going to warn you, I’m going on a wee bit of ranting.

    Between car ride 2 and 3 for the day, I googled the Nasser sentencing, it was less then an hour after it happened. Most of the articles and social media feeds were about the judge being “out of control”, inserting her opinion (which I may be wrong, but that’s what a judge does…) complaining she threw the book at him, and “judicial grandstanding and dunking on the convict from the bench”.

    Excuse me? Did I miss something (beside the obvious elephant in the room that every judge basher was male)? One Georgia located twitter chauvinist even ‘manslained’ the job of a judge and how as an example to feminist everywhere she should have had more grace and decorum.

    Seriously? You want grace and decorum telling a man who sexually abused hundreds of little girls (yet still refers to it has ‘medical treatment’ ) he’s going to jail forever? Should we hand the SOB the afternoon tea schedule for his local prison café and when Masterpiece Theater running a Victoria marathon in his blocks commons room too? Maybe wish him well on the next phase in his life?

    I wonder what any of them would have said if a male judge had said the exact same thing? (And folks wonder why a majority of American women are annoyed.)

      What did they think? He should have only got 99 years?

        I have no clue, and at least 2twitter comments I saw have been deleted. It was more about her tone. Either way, WHY would anyone object to having this man sentenced to any large amount of time or dressed down?

    • Dave Bearse

      Hey, 50% of the country approves of an ephebophile like Roy Moore that has taken advantage of very young women. It’s evident that such behavior is for them normalized, so of course a judge taking exception to such behavior warrants rebuke.
