Winter of Discontent

Things just keep getting worse for Fearless Leader-elect. First, the economy skids into oblivion, taking with it companies and jobs, and putting the country into a recession that's likely to last several years. Then, he hires cabinet members who most see as practical-minded, fairly competent people (most, at least), thereby ticking off the true believers on the far left, who now feel pouty and used. Hell hath no fury like a crabby ideologue. Now, the governor of his home state, and leader of his state party, gets nabbed by the FBI in a major corruption probe. And you thought the Rezco stuff was distasteful.

Sure you want this job?
