Another Trump appointee has resigned this time Scott Pruitt

When it came to ethics and frugality he really blew it

First class airfare or private jets to his home state of Oklahoma from and back to the Swamp

Renting a condo in D.C. from a lobbyist at below market comps

24 hour security to protect him, altering his appointment calendar to meetings hide

Lavish expenditures for his office,  spending patterns easy to deride

Senior staffers at the EPA in him confidence lost

Too much of a distraction for Trump Agenda, too high a cost

His replacement Acting Director Wheeler

Is a former lobbyist for coal industry dealers

Pruitt is a symbol in the Swamp of ethics on vacation, frugality out the window

Not their money so little efforts to wasteful spending attempt to slow

Even though he was relentless in ending the war on business by the EPA

Too much of a distraction so on further service he was compelled to state nay
