My first boss at my first real job told me: “Never get in a pissing contest with a skunk”. Evidently, the skunk always wins....
I wouldn’t call this a pissing contest. Trump got wind of her cockiness, the emails to her people to bring in all these furloughed workers, then her letter to the president.
Not a pissing contest. Just a simple, “Hey, I’m president. You’re not.”
Nancy just got tinkled on by a skunk.
In this case, the skunk is losing.....
