NewLoyalty for me but not for thee

Wed, 01/18/23

Pretty rich from the guy who fired Jeff Sessions via Twitter.

I deeply distrust men who think everyone owes them loyalty and that they themselves owe loyalty to none.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.

NewTwo ways of thinking about it...

Wed, 01/18/23

From my perspective, you’ve got a couple of ways of thinking about it. First, I only voted for Trump in the first place because I had a horrible choice of him vs. Hilliary, or him vs. Biden. He doesn’t win when it’s him vs. a credible Republican like DeSantis, especially after his debacles in Georgia.

Second, I’m reminded of a guy I worked with who noted that he gave his employers exactly the same amount of loyalty they gave him—he worked his job, but that was about the end of it. Donald needs to know that he’s just getting what he’s earned.

Aspiring to be a stick in the mud.
