Pardon me, Ms. Fiorina, but nobody gives a fuck about what you think about impeachment.


The former Hewlett-Packard CEO told CNN on "Boss Files with Poppy Harlow" that she sees the President's conduct as impeachable and "destructive to the republic."
Carly should stick to what she does best; grinding tech companies into financial distress.

Wiki: Carly Fiorina's forced resignation from Hewlett-Pacard.
HP's revenue doubled and the rate of patent filings increased due to mergers with Compaq and other companies during Fiorina's stint as CEO. In addition, HP's cash flow increased by 40%, to around $6.8 billion. However, the company underperformed by a number of other metrics: there were no gains in HP's net income despite a 70% gain in net income of the S&P 500 over this period; the company's debt rose from US$4.25 billion to US$6.75 billion; and its stock price fell by 50%, exceeding declines in the S&P 500 Information Technology Sector index and the NASDAQ.

...the board brought back Tom Perkins and forced Fiorina to resign as chair and chief executive officer of the company. The company's stock jumped 6.9 percent on news of her departure, adding almost three billion dollars to the value of HP in a single day.

Depending on sources, Fiorina is worth $60 million or between $30 to $100 million.

In March, 2016, she endorsed Senator Ted Cruz as the only Republican who can beat then-candidate Donald Trump. Good call, Carly, good call. Dice or a Magic 8-Ball on that one?

Finally, in September, 2016, she publicly voiced her support for Donald Trump for President.


Good call on that endorsement, Carly. See - for all of us - the goal is to make the right decision, or the better decision, more often than making the wrong one. This can be an elusive deliberation sometimes.

What fun it would be sitting around with the H-P BODs during her tenure, having a few drinks, listening to them recall their time with Carly as the CEO. I bet a lot of the stories would begin with... 
"Remember the time Carly suggested that we [fill in the blank]," followed by riotous laughter. 
 "Remember when Carly said she wanted to be the president," followed by lungs being hacked up from laughter.
Fiorina now drags herself out of her plastic bubble for an appearance on the biased CNN for no reason other than to dump on Trump. That chip on Carly's shoulder must be a big and permanent one.

McCain Doing his Best to help Democrats

Sad John McCain











Pretend Republican John McCain said the so-called "Trump Scandals", are "reaching a Watergate size and scale." The Hill (so sorry, I try never to link to them):
McCain made the statement at an International Republican Institute dinner on Tuesday night. Multiple reporters said that during a speech at the event, McCain compared recent reports surrounding Trump's administration to Watergate, which led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon.
Who needs Democrats when you have McCain?

McCain also said he thought talk of impeachment is not a rational approach. Washington Examiner:
Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, called for Trump's impeachment in a Wednesday floor speech. "This is where I stand," Green said. "I will not be moved. The president must be impeached."

That's not "rational," according to McCain[.]
Well, McCain can change his mind and be pro-impeachment in a matter of hours, if not minutes.

And as for Al Green...his accomplishments seem to be being LOUD and being arrested with play-date George cLooney.

It's times like this when Caligula made perfect sense: 
[Caligula] had an inherent dislike and contempt for the Senators, maintaining they were useless. [Little has changed. - DD]. To belittle them he most probably threatened to appoint his horse to the Senate as the horse would most probably do a better job.
