Then why work for this Orange Nazi? Some folks have worked in the White House for decades. Hairplug Himmler made sure to fire certain ones upon arrival, believe he made sure to terminate the Butler? Maybe even a Chef or two? But there are those who have made a Career out of their Federal Employment. Perhaps they began their employment during the Reagan years, Bush 1, then Clinton, Bush 2, Obama, now they are patiently waiting for retirement age, so they can get the F**K out of there, Federal Pension (with Health Insurance) in hand. Not everyone can leave a well-paying Federal Job, move and get same pay, and benefits.

I know, I know, it's easy to criticize, but having been there through from Clinton, Bush 2, then Obama, I was NEVER so happy to be able to retire early after Orangesicle grasped power and took over Our Country. Not all are as fortunate. Not all can walk away. We all have mortgages and Utilities, Insurance, groceries. Easy to forget.
