15. I console myself that after the Babe came Joltin' Joe and after him came The Mick

Which is to say, Biden has access to a lot of top talent, talent that is intelligent, quick witted, and honest, traits that not one of Flubbo's Press Secretaries had. Spicer was a clown, Sanders was a clod, Grisham was invisible, and McEnaney was a worse liar than her boss.

My point is that Jen Psaki was tremendous, there will be others, maybe not as amazing as she’s been, but definite HoF quality.

But she will be missed.
