The Trump Presidency, Season 2

[Free]

Someone from the oldest profession seems a good fit for the oldest president.

Yeah, “Breaking! A hooker! Nothing wrong with honest work blah blah blah and she was actually an expensive girlfriend, and we won’t say who the executive is, but….”

Is she not qualified? Then write about that, or else don’t make it all about what you say you have respect for. Most of this administration isn’t qualified.

Sex = clicks, so I get it, though.

Agreed on all points. I'd be shocked if she was at all qualified. I say that because of who appointed her, not because I'd have anything against a former sex worker in office.

I'm certain we'd have a lot fewer problems if a random retired sex worker replaced Trump, lol.

I'm not sure how compatible "sex worker" is with her security clearance, though. Whether she declared it or not during the vetting process would be important, too -- as I understand it, at least in the UK, they're pretty forgiving of most things, so long as you declare them beforehand. It's when someone keeps quiet about something potentially embarrassing that later transpire during the vetting process that they get upset.

Or just kept him preoccupied.

Sure, but I was mainly making a comment on the way he writes about it.

Hooker!

... retired sex worker ...

There's at least a possibility she's only very recently retired, if there's anything to this part of the story:

The complaint alleges — and Varvaro flatly denies — that she maintained a profile on Seeking.com under the name “Alessia,” advertising herself as someone who works for a government agency and offers “seductive sophistication.” The profile used the same photo as her Instagram. It was removed shortly after a Daily Mail reporter contacted her for comment, which is the kind of detail that really does pop on the page.

That's not a situation that screams, "We're right on top of this whole national security thing."

It seems a little hard to believe that that came up in a vetting process and the vetters said, "Ah, no problem, hell, we're all running OnlyFans sites ourselves." But then, this is the Fourth Reich, and they do constantly amaze with their accomplishments in the domain of idiocy and corruption.

Oh -- the thought does occur, though, she'd be well-positioned, so to speak, to gather blackmail information for Cheetolini. Hmmmm ....

Yeah, this is why I end up ignoring a lot of these sorts of stories. These people are doing so much worse and generally completely unqualofied for other reasons. I don't care that she was a sugar daddy chaser or whatever the proper name is that isn't hooker anymore than I care that AOC was a bartender really.

It comes off as a distraction.

If you aren't dehumanizing the alleged criminal, you are "bad on crime", in the minds of the administrstion.

Unless you're issuing pardons to your supporters and donors, that is.
