Okay guys, it's time to think about it

You work in the white house. From what I’ve heard, we’re paying you really good money. As of this minute, decent people not only won’t date you. They don’t want to live near you. They don’t want to eat in the same restaurant. The sounds of your voices is worse than any fingernail on any chalkboard ever.
You might not know it. It won’t last forever. Oh, the lack of dates and eating at home alone will last. The money won’t. I hope you have been saving. It might have to last a very long time.
Let’s move on. Good news, you did manage to avoid prison. That could be a good news/ bad news thing. Food and shelter will go to the front of the line. Help from the family? Some of you have already burned that bridge.
You need a job. You start sending out resumes. How many does it take until you figure out your work history of the last few years isn’t really helping? My guess is the third one being returned in a baggie by way of a paper shredder.
It’s time to think about it. Just saying...

The evidence of what a shithole this man is, was out there for all to know, even if the media didn't report on it.

Those who need to hear and understand your message the most are the ones who will listen and understand the least. That's a typical bubble inhabitant.

Can't get a date? It's those mean ol' biased libs.
Can't get a job when the WH gig is done? It's the lib deep state.
Family and old friends are different now and don't want to be around you? They couldn't handle all the winning.

A thousand more difficulties, a thousand more excuses they will come up with. They are so firmly rooted in the reichwing bubble that they aren't able to see reality outside of it - or even acknowledge that reality proves them wrong in every instance. Tuff shit - fuck'em all.

National Park Service, Secret Service etc. the vast majority of WH employees are not political. They just try to keep the place running and maintained. The last 18 months has probably been tough on them.

I've seen several articles about how they are ridiculed and treated as pariahs so they've huddle together near the developed Navy yard area to insulate themselves.

Interviewer: There's a gap in your employment history. Care to explain?
Ex-Trumpee: I was in prison
Interviewer: Are you sure you weren't working in the Trump Administration?
Ex-Trumpee: Nope, prison. Definitely prison.
