68. Because He's Not A Real Problem?

Tue Jun 20, 2023, 07:24 AM

Jun 2023

DeJoy is a lapdog. When TFG was the boss, he made noise about "dismantling & restructuring".
Now, with new governors & Biden in charge, he's doing exactly as he's told.
Firing him becomes strictly a political act, because there's no path of destruction, he's hemmed in, and playing ball.
Why fire him now, if he's playing by the new rules?
