Libs heads must be exploding about it being “unpresidential”. Even better: Elton John must be in a fit of total outrage! This is as good for outrage as the week’s big event. Pruitt is gone, just like the maniacs wanted. So a former lobbyist for the coal industry takes his place!
>> Pruitt is gone, just like the maniacs wanted
I’m from Oklahoma. I like Scott Pruitt. However..... He should have known better than to play the “get my wife a job” game, and watched his budget better. I’m a huge fan of anyone getting fired that plays King, as a department head.
Scott screwed up, I’m not going to defend him, and I’m glad Trump removed him. I think it had LESS to do with the media attacks on Pruitt, and more to do with him playing fast and lose with the guidelines for behavior trump set.
He was doing a good job at the EPA, but that doesn’t excuse some of the wrongs.
You make an interesting point. Elton was a huge Hillary supporter in 2008 - but in 2016 he was as quiet as a churchmouse.
Of course, he has known POTUS Trump personally for decades (I saw him in concert in 1990 at the Trump Atlantic City casino and the media made a big deal about how Trump gave him a grand tour and feted him the day before the 2-night concert engagement), so he knows that the garbage about POTUS Trump in the media is - garbage.
Perhaps in his older years he has received the age-old wisdom that entertainers should not gratuitously insult half their audience ...
