    One picture is worth a thousand words... but a selfie with the nuclear football?  Pictured: Trump cronie Richard DeAgazio (r in top photo) and the hapless aide-de-camp charged with carrying the nuclear launch codes (l in top photo - face obscured for security reasons).  Lower picture shows hapless aide-de-camp carrying briefcase with the President's nuclear launch codes into Trump's Mar-A-Lago resort.  Guess which one of those two guys undoubtedly lost his elevated position in the world?  (HINT: It probably wasn't the guy on the right.)
