In a speech to the oil industry, Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke claimed that nearly a third of his staff is disloyal to President Trump, saying that workers in Washington are reluctant to relax regulations to permit increased mining for coal and drilling for natural gas and oil on public land.

If this was the Obama Administration, the calls for his resignation would have been deafening.

But IOKIYAR

1. Zinke uses the word loyalty in a situation where if any Dem did it they would be

hunted and eliminated by deplorables and you would hear nothing else on the news for a month

Democrats demand loyalty! News at eleven!

This country has one set of rules, these rules apply to democrats, and no rules apply to republicans and the media goes along with this in most cases.

and heartbreaking

2. Hell, over 70% of Americans feel no loyalty to Trump

Because it's not about the republican Draft-Dodger-in-Chief. It's about America, and America's Interior Dept. - that's what they need to be, and are loyal to, not loyal to the distorted-personality dotard that republicans have labeled their "god emperor."

republicans can go all scuzzy-submissive for a self-styled potentate casino hustler if they want. But Americans - by at least 3 million votes - don't go for that shit. Hell, the country was formed when honorable women and men revolted agains frikkin republican-style royalty back in frikken 1776.

So Zinke can go pound his binky.

4. Yep... all the Trumpster has is the dirty thirty

probably the same dirty thirty who were all hot to remove Bill Clinton..

That's really about all the true republican support there ever is.. Gerrymandering/voter suppression, racism, and the laziness of too many Democrats in midterms is why we are where we are..
