Chief of Staff to the President of the United States is one of the most prestigious jobs in all of Washington. Nick Ayers, currently chief of staff to Mike Pence, who is low key and boring, is known to be an ambitious RepubliCON operative eager to get ahead.
In any other administration, he would be chomping at the bit to be Chief of Staff to the President.
But he is smart enough to know the dangers of working in close, intimate quarters with the volatile, unstable non-genius tantrum-in-chief, who is nothing like his quiet, neutered boss.
Given the chance of a lifetime, Ayers not only humiliated Trump-ividual 1 by turning down the offer, he also abandoned Pence and decided to return to Georgia.
All of the Plan B backup possibilities are all also making clear they are not willing to work that closely with the human time bomb.
The GOP got what they wanted – huge tax breaks for the super rich and two (maybe three given RBG’s age) Supreme Court justices. So from here on out they don’t really care.
I’ll bet every single person who’s even within range of the job has read and internalized Michael Wolff’s Fire and Fury and Bob Woodward’s Fear. The West Wing leaks like a sieve, and its total dysfunctionality is on public view. Whoever gets stuck with the job has no excuse that they didn’t know what they were getting into.
This week has been very fruitful for Stephen Colbert and Seth Myers. The funniest part of it is that they really do NOT have to write the material – Trump announces it. However, I do think should that Trump should seriously consider Eric for the job. He is as disqualified as every other candidate. Perhaps Trump will go to his boss, Putin, and ask for suggestions. Has anyone noticed that he kept denying that he had previously said he would do a shutdown if he did not get the wall – then he says — Okay, if you want to say that – I will let it fall on me. He has done this with other claims he made. He does know that his cult members believe him – and not the lying press (which actually shows him saying what he denies he said) and that those loyal to him will never believe Pelosi or Schumer or any Democrat. Actually I thought he would offer the position to Stephen Millar who is not even a human being.
Cohen was just sentenced to 36 months in federal prison. (Manafort, we hope, will get something like 36 YEARS.) Maybe Cohen can meet somebody in prison who will want to be Li’l Donnie’s chief of staff……
Trump is ousted for conspiracy and felonies. Followed by Pense for his own ties to the Russians. Nancy Pelosi as Speaker becomes 46th president. She appoints Hillary Rodham Clinton as VP. Then resigns the next day. Hillary Clinton becomes the 47th president.And the world is new again.

Wanna bet he offers the job to either Kellyanne of Green Goebbels, Lumpy Hannity, or maybe Jabba The Hucksterbeast??
By the way… Lumpy is trying to scrub his Twitter feed of ALL mentions of Manafort or Cohen…I wonder why??? “Individual #2”
