Trump Fires 500 Obama Staffers… Dems Panic
End the Fed ^ | 11/17/16

Donald Trump is reportedly firing around 500 of Barack Obama’s staffers, as he plans to completely fill the White House with his own team.

The Federalist Papers reported that though it’s likely that Hillary Clinton would have let most of Obama’s people go so that she could hire her own staff, Trump’s win closed the door on the possibility of any of Obama’s staffer sticking around. The fired staffers have gotten so desperate about their employment situation that Obama has brought in representatives from Facebook, Instagram and other companies to offer insights into the job market. According to CBS News, Linkedin officials are helping Obama’s staff find ways to market their skills.

Georgetown University, which is located close to the White House, has designed a custom professional development program they call “Future44,” Obama is the 44th president, to teach Obama’s political appointees how to build their lives after the White House. The program is free of charge thanks to an anonymous donor, and participants register for either four 2-hour evening sessions or one 8-hour “boot camp.”

“We designed this unique curriculum to help these staffers think through how to market themselves or market their competencies,” said Kelly Otter, dean of Georgetown’s School of Continuing Studies.

Many of Obama’s staffers will likely end up in liberal cities like New York or San Francisco working for companies that cater to millennials such as Amazon, Snapchat, Google, Vice, etc.

“The transition out of government is a reality for most appointees, which brings both excitement about prospects for the next chapter or a long-awaited chance to recharge batteries, and a keen awareness about a big, impending change,” said White House spokeswoman Jennifer Friedman.

Ivan Adler, a headhunter at McCormick Group, explained that Obama’s staffers are about to face a major change in life that may be hard..."

“The fired staffers have gotten so desperate about their employment situation that Obama has brought in representatives from Facebook, Instagram and other companies to offer insights into the job market.”

And before the election, every single one of them would have gushed about the wonderful things they were doing to create jobs.

Change of employment is the norm for many of us. I’m on my third job this year, typical tenure being 6 months to 6 years.

Climate changes. Cope. That includes careers.

Why do you need 500 staffers? Training them to be community organizers?

Question:

Are these 500 all “Obama staffers” or do they staff different parts of the government?

I hope he fires even the kitchen staff. I doubt that chitlins and hog jowls are going to be “big” in the Trump White House. Probably going to have to fumigate the whole place. Kinda like “tenting your home” to get rid of all the termites!

Wake me up when Trump sweeps out a good number of U.S. Attorneys. The justice system has been politicized form the bottom to the top. Clean sweep needed.

Why is this news, you ask?

It isn't!

This is 'ginning up support' for people with no real discernible job skills. Leftist think tanks, progressive projects (like ACORN) and liberal rags/news agencies will join them to their ranks as no one else will hire them.
