Hogan Gidley Pleads With 'Woke' Businesses To Hire Trump Loyalists For Their 'Depth Of Knowledge'

Politics 1/31/21 10:22am Read time: 1 minute comments

By David

Former White House staffer Hogan Gidley recently urged "woke" businesses to consider hiring former Trump administration officials for their "depth of knowledge" about governing.

In an interview that aired over the weekend, Sinclair's Eric Bolling asked Gidley if he was experiencing any "vitriol" from liberals due to his time working for former President Donald Trump.

"I'm not surprised at all," Gidley replied. "They hated us for years. And remember, it's not the president so much. I mean, they hated him for sure. They hate all of us! They hate the people out there who don't agree with them. And the whole lie about 'unity' is completely the biggest farce I've ever seen."

He's crying like a baby and hasn't even gotten past the introductory prelims of discrimination in hiring. He need to get back to us when he's tried it as a person of any of the myriad of people that are in a demographic minority. Then he can tell us the story of of his interview and how he could tell that the job was already lost by the way the interviewer looked at him.

Let's just say that the way they use that word is a prurient tool of self-indulgence.

And for supposedly tireless advocates of "free market capitalism", they get really snowflakey when companies' business decisions lean toward inclusiveness (at least in appearance and marketing).

Betrayal and self-serving.

Trump wants his employees at each other's throats.

Donald Trump fostered fierce competition between employees at his ... he pitted his managers against each other in a ferocious competition ...

No one considers what happened during the trump administration to be governing. Hogan is an idiot who will be unemployed for a very long to]ime

and he was completely delusional, trying to talk about all the things the tRump regime had accomplished and Alex was like, "the economy is in the toilet, over 400,000 are dead from COVID, and he just incited an insurrection against the US government for the first time in American history!"

He really doesn't get it..
