What if everybody in the WH secretly taped

everything. Just in case they would need to protect themselves in a court of law.

This is turning into a massive comedy. Except it isn't funny right now. Maybe later when we can look back on all this and not be heartsick.

1. I suspect they're already doing that

What a snake pit

2. If I was working in this White House, I'd be wired

No doubt about it. I'd be recording every move I made, every conversation I had, memorializing everything in a memo afterwards, and blind cc'ing every e-mail to a personal e-mail account. I wouldn't trust anyone else to keep a record of my activities.

3. How do people work in that environment?

I wouldn't last 10 minutes.

6. would you actually even work for that treasonous bastard? I understand what you are

saying, but what normal person would actually be there?

I keep thinking about the fact that his own lawyers say they meet with him in pairs, because they need witnesses.

7. No, and it's unlikely I'd be tapped for a position

I've worked in those kinds of toxic work places before, but this White House seems to be exponentially worse than any of those. It's why anyone working there has to be suspect for the rest of their careers. Sean Spicer is just one example. He's trying to rehab his image and get work again, but his stint as press secretary will (and should) mark him forever. If some right wing sugar daddy wants to put Spicer on his personal dole, it can't be stopped. But no respectable employer should ever put this miscreant on a payroll.

8. I know. This whole thing is just unbelievable.

It sounds like a Spy vs Spy novel.

4. Comey was right on about this.

5. The White House is full of co-workers who don't trust each other.

This is what happens when you vote in someone just because you think it will tear down the walls on traditional convention.

America is imploding.

9. Team trDump is decimating the last vestiges of our once vibrant Democracy and transforming our...

.... government into a Fascist Theocratic Oligarchy in the hopes that he and his criminal minions will realize astronomical personal financial gains and riches.
