Jen Psaki Says She’s Stepping Down (interviews, dollars, politicians)

[ATX Wahine]

It’s a tough job for ANYBODY to maintain for too long.

We should all be honest at least about that fact.

She's quitting and his sign language interpreter was committed to the loony farm.

It's stressful to have to keep repeating lies for a living, and then have to answer questions about them to a media half of which doesn't believe you.

Especially when you know that the guy you're speaking for, probably has never answered most of those questions himself, nor even thought about them much.

A year's about all most people can stand.

But there's plenty more liars where she came from.

Jen Psaki Says She’s Stepping Down

White House press secretary Jen Psaki announced Thursday that she plans on leaving her current role within a year.

“I think it’s going to be time for somebody else to have this job in a year from now or about a year from now,” Psaki said in an interview with CNN’s David Axelrod. Psaki said she wants to spend more time with her kids.

"Leaving her current role within a year" - Translation: "I plan to be gone by Memorial Day".

This is probably nothing more than her 2-Weeks Notice. But this really shouldn't be a surprise. Press Secretaries probably have some of the highest turnover rates in an administration.

Going back Clinton had 5 Press Secretaries, GW Bush had 4, Obama had 3, Trump had 4. When she does leave Biden will be on his second.

It's actually pretty big of her to do this. By the time she leaves the righties will be needing somebody new to despise.

A big step down from Kayleigh McEnany

It's a 24/7 job. I know I wouldn't have the stamina to hang on for more than a year or two.

Not a single one.

Sean Spicer gamely went out there spouting one ridiculous lie after another. He was terrible, and finally hung it up.

Huckabee-Sanders held press conferences for a time, then she gave up on them as well.

The last one, I forgot her name, held them sporadically but they were pretty ridiculous. It was like an SNL skit.

First thought I had.
