Help Us, Gen. Kelly -- You're Our Only Hope!

Okay, so I think we can all admit that it's been a rough six months for us, considering the chaos that's been going on in our nation's capital, and in the White House in particular.  

But perhaps in a brief moment of sanity -- or dumb luck, take your pick -- Donald Trump has finally chosen a man as his new chief of staff who seems to have a reasonable level of competence and smarts to be able to deal with the daily disaster ("dumpster fire" seems too generous a term) we've all come to expect.

On the other hand, once Gen. John Kelly is sworn in today to his new post, he may find that things have been (ahem) piling up a little more than he realized and he's going to have to turn his attention to some things that require immediate action.  So for all of you who want to keep a scorecard, here's...

TOP 10 THINGS GEN. KELLY WILL HAVE TO DO ON HIS FIRST DAY ON THE JOB

10.) Show Kellyanne Conway the right way to sit on a couch

9.) Send Chris Christie out to get the president's lunch

8.) Distribute Russian-English dictionaries to everyone on his staff

7.) Re-order more hair product for Donald Jr.

6.) Start digging the sand traps for the golf course/resort Trump plans to open on the south lawn of the White House

5.) Give Anthony Scaramucci diction lessons by having him watch old tapes of John Travolta as Vinnie Barbarino in “Welcome Back, Kotter”

4.) Try to explain health care insurance to Donald Trump

3.) Peel the plastic Dymo labels off everything that has the name “Priebus” on it

2.) Buy Sarah Huckabee Sanders a mirror

AND THE NUMBER ONE THING GEN. KELLY WILL HAVE TO DO ON HIS FIRST DAY ON THE JOB...

Hope that things just keep going as smoothly as they have been!
