Why does Kelly Sadler still have a White House job? She should have been fired 12 hours ago.
Then again, as folks have observed, Republicans don't move very quickly on their offenders, do they? Take the case of the two Erics: New York AG Schneiderman was gone in three hours, but Missouri Governor Greitens is still in office. (We'll see for how long.)
Meanwhile, a few Republicans have gingerly stepped forward to defend John McCain from the sadistic Trumpsters. Jeff Flake was one — no surprise. Joni Ernst weighed in, too, but we cats found significant fault with her statement.
"Our nation should be grateful for the exemplary service and sacrifice of @SenJohnMcCain," she tweeted, "and treat this war hero and his family with the civility and respect they deserve."
Um.
Why is Ernst scolding "the nation," and not Sadler? "The nation" didn't insult a Vietnam POW and his family. But Donald Trump and his hideous White House staff have. When will Ernst and other members of the GOP demand that they apologize, and not "the nation"?
Probably never. Because while all this is happening, Michael Avenatti is giving the world a head's up that he's got more info on Michael Cohen, Trump and Russian money, and we're guessing that a good chunk of those rubles made their way to the RNC and GOP members of Congress. So they're loath to speak up — about anything, no matter how outrageous. We cats HISS.
