White House ‘rebranding’ effort flops with staffers: ‘Made me feel like I was back in 5th grade’



Communications director Mike Dubke and his deputy, Jessica Ditto, brought about 30 staffers into a meeting last week to brainstorm ideas for “rebranding” the Trump administration.

“I think the president’s head would explode if he heard that,” one White House official told Politico.

“There is not a need for a rebranding but there is a need to brand the first 100 days,” Dubke said. “Because if we don’t do it the media is going to do it. That’s what our job is.”

Kellyanne Conway and other staffers were broken into three groups to think up lists of Trump successes, using white boards, markers and rolls of butcher-block paper.

They could have done that job with a box of crayons and a pad of post it notes.

First act: making first time home buyers pay $500 more for a house. Soon after the appointments of idiots who seem to think there is no need for government because the rapture is coming. Signed a dirty water bill. Told auto makers they could produce cars that get 15 MPG if they want. Rubber stamped pesticides that hurt little kids. Celebrated pay equality shortly after repealing pay equality. Celebrated sexual assault awareness, despite being the poster boy for creeps to watch out for. Filled a stolen SCOTUS seat. I'm hard pressed to come up with one positive thing.

She makes up half of what she says and puts hot pink nail polish on the rest.

Apparently, they aren't letting her talk anymore like they used to, but I'll bet she can draw a pretty picture with crayons on construction paper.

he has successfully avoided impeachment, and has not been indicted for any major crimes.

I didn't think he'd last this long without having it all come tumbling down around his ears.
