Now I'm confused. Jay Sekulow is actually a really good guy; why the hell is he representing Trump? He picked the only job worse than Spicer for the Trump team. At least Spicer only has to hold up to media scrutiny, which is lax at best the past few years, but Sekulow has to work with logic and real facts................(where's the banging my had against a concrete wall meme when I need it?)

You know how when someone says something to you that is so unbelievable you repeat it back to them out loud sarcastically? That kinda seems like he did here. and people are making a big deal out of it. Yeah, I too think he should stop tweeting, because he knows that most people are going to take it out of context and make a big deal out of nothing. Well, if he used proper grammar and punctuation it would work better. Seriously, if you just add a couple question marks to his tweet, it makes it make sense.

I'm being investigated for firing the FBI Director? By the man who told me to fire the FBI Director? Witch Hunt!

See? If people took it that way in the first place, no problem. Instead, they take it literally, and out of context, and as an admission.

Donald Trump was not in my first 100 choices to be president. But he is and he's going to be for the next eight years. He is not going to be impeached he is not going to be put in jail. So get over it and at least give him Credit One he fails into doing the right thing accidentally.

Somewhere deep inside the White House there is a small sound proofed room. Every day the senior staff and various aides gather to chant "The Words that Must Not Be Spoken."

The leader speaks the following lines.
The chanters answer back with "Don't Fucking Tweet."

What the fuck is wrong with you?
<Don't Fucking Tweet>
Can you not just not fucking tweet?
<Don't Fucking Tweet>
It is such a simple thing.
<Don't Fucking Tweet>
All you have to do is not fucking tweet.
<Don't Fucking Tweet>
Our lives would be better.
<Don't Fucking Tweet>
Your life would be better.
<Don't Fucking Tweet>
Just don't fucking tweet.
<Don't Fucking Tweet>

At the head of the room there is a ceremonial brick wall that they speak to.

So far the ritual has been as effective as one would expect it to be.

Just to enlighten those that plan on coming in here with fake or alternative facts.

This right here is the lawyer that hired his own personal lawyer. He did this because he advised Trump's aides not to seek counsel, saying that they didn't need a lawyer. He very openly gave them horrendous advice knowing that only his own client would benefit.

Think about this for a second. Trump hired a lawyer. Trump's lawyer hired his own lawyer.

You can't make up how absolutely stupid these people are. This is proof positive that you get ahead in life based on the amount of money you have, and who you know.

pleasestop Helps to know people. But you what helps the most? Stop worrying about what everybody else is doing. Stop complaining about "the system." Make good decisions and work hard. Works most times it's tried.
