1. That's cute; Pompeo thinks he has prospects for 2024

Mr. First in his Class at West Point might want to familiarize himself with that Honor Code thingy. It's not all that long or hard to understand, but it seems to have utterly baffled him.

[Takket]

2. Simpler answer: he is a fascist

[StClone]

5. Did his stupid laugh/smile give him away?

While speaking he made it seem hardly serious, and it seemed to be a put-on.

[Sherman A1]

10. Agreed

[live love laugh]

13. 🎯💯

[exboyfil]

3. I wonder if anyone has asked Condi Rice or Colin Powell

what they think of Pompeo's comment. James Baker?

[live love laugh]

14. Why would anybody rely on lying Rice's opinion?nt

4. Pompeo in 2024? NO FREAKING WAY!

8. That sentence made me throw up a little in my mouth.

17. But but but Trump's claimed 2024 .... or was it Ivanka...

🧐🤢🤮

[cry baby]

6. Could any of these jerks leave the self-interest at the door

or has self-interest become the only reason for existence?

I know...it’s a rhetorical question.

18. so true. How do you grad from WP and not be patriotic, love your country,

and Respect our Constitution?

Maybe WP needs to do more stringent psychological testing to root out the psychopaths who want power at any cost.

7. all the 2024 GOP wannabes are in line behind Donny, DJTJ, and Ivanka but they don't

realize it yet.
They signed over their party.
It belongs to the Trumps now.

12. Tucker and Sen. Cotton

I really don’t think Trump is running again. He will be almost 80.

[TeamPooka]

16. then it's Don Jr or Ivanka. But there will be a trump running. Bet on it.

[maxsolomon]

20. He'll be 78

Biden's current age.

[Spazito]

9. He's always been a fascist, he has just stopped trying to hide it n/t

[spanone]

11. That's all pompeo has for 2024 is hopes.

[underpants]

15. It's like the Malawi space program

which consists of a man, a bucket, and his dreams.

Stolen from Al Franken.

[spanone]

19. BWahahahahaa

[maxsolomon]

21. Pompeo was toeing the company line.

He was clearly snarking.

No one in the WH is going to break ranks this week; they're all hostages to Trump's ego and emotional fragility.
