Wow! Suddenly this week Politico reporter Mike Elk shook off his cloak of extreme lethargy and became like the Energizer Bunnie. Gone was his PTSD and STSD (Secondary Traumatic Stress Disorder) which he claims inhibit him from working. Despite not having done a bit of work for six months, there he was front and center at a press conference asking Democrat presidential candidate Bernie Sanders questions. So what was the subject of Elk's inquiry? It was about how badly treated he is at his employer Politico because they haven't approved card check in voting on whether to form a union shop.

Here is Erik Wemple at the Washington Post chronicling Elk's working woe whine to Bernie Sanders:

Donald Trump would have quickly told this clown "YOU'RE FIRED!" but at Politico they act like they are intimidated by him.

Does he get paid per word?

He must be getting hungry.

Sounds like a typical leftist and a typical reporter. (All reporters are leftists, but not all leftists are reporters)
