If the average white house intern is as much of a ghoul as I’m imagining maybe they should just be unpaid interns forever

    I dated a girl for a couple years that got a WH internship under fucking Trump.

    Trump was actually great for the DC lanyard crowd, as senior officials were exiting the town in droves. I know a couple of people who landed entry level jobs at the DOJ mostly because there were suddenly so many new job openings. I've heard similar stories at the IRS, the EPA, the DEA, the FBI...

    One reason I think the last five years have been so great for regional opponents of the American Empire is that all the people who knew what they were doing put in for early retirement and haven't really looked back.
