I just read a NYTimes story about the Comey proceedings that included a photo of Ms. Halligan. This mind-bogglingly corrupt president doesn’t just appoint unqualified people to important positions, he chooses them based on their looks. It makes me want to bang my head against the wall 40 or 50 times. ---

> [@Monty](#): > > > “As a Republican, who overwhelmingly votes for President Trump‘s bills and agenda, his aggression against me which also fuels the venomous nature of his radical internet trolls (many of whom are paid), this is completely shocking to everyone,” the congresswoman added in her post. As a non-Republican, the aggression of Donald Trump against one of his former troll-toadies who’s now done something to displease him is not even a little bit shocking to anyone. MTG is pretty stupid, but even she can’t seriously have expected that Trump and Trumpies wouldn’t turn on her. ---
