      Seems like the governor of Georgia is like one of these party apparatchiks who tries to anticipate correct moves from party leader. But gets it slightly off.

      Working towards the Donald is a risky game. Thomas Modly made the same mistake. In this sort of regime, I'd recommend apparatchiks keep a low profile rather than try to win the leader's approval.

          Icaruses, each and every one of them. They cast aside caution in the belief that if they nail this moment *just right*, they'll reach the inner circle...

          It’s so much trickier with Trump because unless the topic is raping models, ripping everyone off, or crushing immigrants, he doesn’t really know what he wants a lot of the time.

          When dealing with @realDonaldTrump, the best move is to always just back your way out of the room. Then hope that he does not notice that you have left.
