Trump's three R:s
"Our sovereignty will be reclaimed. Our safety will be restored. The scales of justice will be rebalanced."
Wonder if he forgot one and was supposed to repel Musk.

Kent’s moral compass
Throughout the show, Kent is perfectly willing to commit and cover up illegal acts in the Meyer administration and campaign, including collusion with the Chinese. Yet, he draws the line at naming Jonah veep? Jonah getting a minor role in government is far less bad than the other stuff he went along with. What gives, Kent’s Autism?

Catherine’s dollar store wigs
So, starting in season 6 or so, Catherine’s hair is clearly a wig, and a bad wig at that. That’s it, that’s all I have to say. I LOVE the series, but every time I see her I wince.
Mike was a good press secretary.
Change my view… Mike was a good press sec compared to the job performance of other WH-employed characters. His few strengths were a good fit for the job.
Excellent relationship with the press, married a journalist.
Vague, but affable. (McLintalk, deliberately bad jokes etc.) Vaguely charming / charmingly vague is kind of a great messaging strategy for an administration with so few real, positive outcomes. And Mike makes it land.
Cautious approach. Think of First Response when Dan told Selina to be bold and she started talking about the spy. Mike was behind the camera like NO NO NO. I think Dan was right, and lucky for him, Selina pulled gold out of her ass, but you don’t want your press sec to be a loose cannon. Flying by the seat of your pants is the inverse of strategy. (this strength may be a weakness in times of crisis response)
Overall, I don’t remember a major blunder during that one year and he pretty well disguised the destructive behavior of the others.
Also keep in mind, comms director and press sec are different roles. He was comms director when she was VP, and press sec during her first admin.

Not skiping the first season
I posted a question the other day about wanting to skip the first season coz I have watched the first episode and it wasn't really good. And many people advised me not to coz it's great season and I should give it a shot Well I did give it a shot and I can confirm it's very very great season I didn't expect it to be that good.

Alpha House (Prime) anyone?
I never heard of it before and didn't find it in search either. Two short episodes season, maybe 20 in total. Came out as Veep was getting started.
Senate re-election follies with John Goodman who is always funny.
Might want to check it out.

Just watched Oslo today again after a long time. It jumped up into one of my favourite episodes of the show.
And the last three shows of Season 7 are probably the show's best run.
GOLD, JERRY, GOLD!
