The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Chief of Staff is an insane job, and the average tenure in the position is between 1.5 and 2 years. They very rarely last a full term, even when there's no substantive reason for them to leave. It just chews people up.

It isn't so much that he is changing Chief of Staff, it is *who* he picked, even though the chattering class picked Miller weeks ago. Based on past performance, seems the advice he will receive going forward will turn the racism up to 147, ditto the tendency to rule by diktat. It could be that he will simply abandon any pretense of trying to work with a Dem majority Congress and go full dictator.
