The Inevitable New The Inevitable Trump Mocking Thread

Hüsker Dü said:
White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly frequently lost his temper, telling colleagues he thought the president was “unhinged,” according to Woodward.

In one meeting, Kelly reportedly said Trump was “an idiot,” and it was “pointless to try to convince him of anything.”

“He’s gone off the rails. We’re in Crazytown. I don’t even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I’ve ever had,” Kelly said.

A Texas doctor apologized Sunday after being abused on social media for his published opinion that female physicians should work harder if they want to make the same as their male counterparts, according to the Washington Post.

Gary Tigges, who started his own internal medicine practice in Plano in 1996, said he didn’t know his comments would be published in the Dallas Medical Journal under the “Big and Bright Ideas” section.

“My response sounds terrible and horrible and doesn’t reflect what I was really trying to say,” Tigges told the Dallas Morning News last week. “I’m not saying female physicians should be paid less, but they earn less because of other factors.”

Yes, there is a pay gap. Female physicians do not work as hard, and they do not see as many patients as male physicians. This is because they choose to, or they simply don’t want to be rushed, or they don’t want to work the long hours. Most of the time, their priority is something else … family, social, whatever.

Nothing needs to be “done” about this unless female physicians actually want to work harder and put in the hours. If not, they should be paid less. That is fair.
