We all know the DC press core has its head up its ass. But it's still kind of amazing to me that broadcast news is treating this pointless palace intrigue crap as though it's crucially important to the future of Trump's presidency meanwhile the strategic petroleum reserve is at its lowest level in 40+ years. That is crucially important to the future of Trump's presidency and what happens in the war.

But the average American has never heard or seen the words "strategic petroleum reserve".

They just like feeling good about being able to bully someone out of the job I guess. I don't care because anyone taking that job is a fucking asshole that deserves it but yeah it doesn't do anything.
