CNN New pecking order in the WH. Bolton and Kudlow will report directly

[applegrove]

to Trump not chief of staff Kelly. Oh boy.

1. Why hasn't Kelly resigned? LOL n/t

[Loki Liesmith]

2. Completely cucked.

9. ???

That word has strong MRA and Alt Right roots. Why on earth would you use it here?

Urban Dictionary: cucked
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cucked
Synonymous with "cuckolded." One whose wife has had sexual relations with another man (in modern use, often with the husband's approval) has been cucked.

10. Because he deserves it?

Because he doesn't have the balls to quit?

Because he signed up to work for Pres. Pieceofshit?

Because he lied, through his teeth, in detail, in the course of going out of his way to smear a Democratic member of Congress?

13. None of which has anything to do with the question

It's a deeply misogynist term, and as such is offensive to women and people who champion women -- which ought to include DUers. It has no place here, and no place describing Kelly, despite his many flaws (one of which is HIS misogyny, together with his rampant, virulent racism).

To me, anyone who brings this word to DU is signalling that they hang out with MRA types and/or in Alt Right circles. Most DUers wouldn't even think of the term, let alone use it.

11. Because I find it funny to see them become what they accuse others of.

[RandomAccess]

12. The word for that is hypocrite, not

cuck.

It's just such a misogynist term, and seeing it used here is disgusting.

[Loki Liesmith]

14. I will keep my own counsel on the matter

Your objection is noted.

Cheers.

3. For all that Trump gushes about "his generals", this is a shot across the bow

aimed at sinking Kelly authority in the West Wing. Trump is too much the spineless coward to tell the man he's fired face to face, so he'll make these little potshots to embarrass him and force him to hand in his own resignation..

He can't survive the loss of face in the backstabbing, dog eat dog chaos of Trump's White House. The countdown clock is lit and Kelley's days are numbered.

7. I wonder if Trump tried to sleep with Kelly's wife?

It's what he does. He records it and plays it back to the unfortunate target. But Kelly's wife is age appropriate so he probably didn't try.

Why anyone would ever voluntarily be near Trump is beyond me. I would be throwing up just looking at him.

4. I assumed the National Security Advisor always reported to the president, so that one may not be

a big deal. Kudlow, though is different.

[onethatcares]

5. it used to, when we had a normal government

but this shit of running the govern emt like a business is screwing the entire process up.

Geez, we don't have a Secretary of State as I type this and the asshole is talking about going to N. Korea

[C_U_L8R]

6. A triumvirate of tossers

[PubliusEnigma]

8. Impotency ain't just a river in Egypt.

[Mr. Ected]

15. Who does Kelly report to?

Hannity?
