      Simple: they just applied Wilhoit’s Law

      “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition … There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.” --Frank Wilhoit”

            what the fuck is our society doing to people that drives them to this?

            not a question I expect -you- to answer, but holy hell we should be asking it loudly.

            I don’t recall anyone getting plastic surgery for obama or bush…

        yeah but it’s a kinder kind of crazy. before is ‘she broke into your house and refolded all your laundry ‘the right way’’

        after is ‘she broke into your house, executed your spouse and is wearing their flesh as a skin suit’

        there’s a subtle difference

    I would feel like a pleb if I only had one private airplane. Like a barely rich hobo. They should have gotten her three to be honest.

        Really. So they threw out tons of experience, put themselves in a desperate situation and hired back (hopefully the same people, but likely new) people for (likely) higher salaries?

          Pretty much. Filtering for loyalty to Dear Leader over competence or basic integrity for all positions from top to bottom will lead to that sort of thing.
