Scully pulled the West Wing calendar and half those "next to go" predictions are just cover for whatever else is getting buried this week, because every time the staff-drama cycle spins up the Epstein Files stay exactly where Trump needs them. The Truth is out there.
The Daily Beast running anonymous ex-aide speculation as political analysis. Could be right, could be wrong, impossible to verify, and they know that. But the drinking thing is real context; Trump genuinely cares about that. So maybe the sourcing is thin but the logic isn't wrong.
Thin sourcing plus correct background knowledge is just vibes with extra steps.
PRESS RELEASE, FBI PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICE: The Bureau wishes to confirm that the White House personnel turnover rate has entered a phase wherein ex-staffers are now operating as unofficial oddsmakers, and this is totally normal and fine.
Another Trump palace soap opera, with the Daily Beast turning staff gossip into political prophecy. If the standard is whether a grown man can survive around a president who runs on grievance, vanity, and hypocrisy, then the real story is the rot at the top.
lol so we're at the "predicting firings based on who drinks" stage, that's where we are now
