I’m really having a hard time having sympathy for any of these staffers. The work for the most elite of the elite in this country. Daily plying their bosses (Rabid Dem Ideologues and Quisling RINOs) with dissembling BS to spew back to the sheep at home about this show vote, or that one - and yes, we are conservative - I voted for it before I voted against it.
If you watch almost any movie where the forces of good are battling the disciples of the Devil who are trying to incarnate him, his son (or daughter) somehow to rule the world in darkness, you’ll find a common thread. The devil, or offspring almost always eats/kills/maims these erstwhile helpers. Why? He/she/it just can’t help it - it’s in his/her/its nature.
That’s what is happening to these ‘disciples’.
But look at the opportunity this creates! Staffers have a lot of power on the hill. If we could get a bunch of tea party / conservative people applying for the new job openings, maybe there would be ‘change we can believe in’ on the hill!
