Yep. The MSM are doing their jobs. How nice.

Guiliani getting caught in the big web would be so sweet.

Trump probably likes this characterization. Though the nightly tweetstorms suggest this would be a more apt scene for him:

It ain't the way I wanted it! I can handle things! I'm smart! Not like everybody says... like dumb... I'm smart and I want respect!

Dear CNN: Please stop treating things that Trump said happened as though they actually happened.

It’s a stupid analogy. Private business people talk this way.

It’s real, and it’s alarming.

I’ve been saying that since November 8th.

Bash said. “I mean, it almost feels like a scene out of “The Godfather,” but it’s not. It’s real, and it’s alarming.”

Gee, That terrific “Pivot” piece you did will have to wait another week.

Nice image Dana but in a Godfather firing it’s two to the back of the head.

Talk bluntly. Invoking power. Direct.

I’m not saying it’s okay, just reality.

Steve Benen, on the Comey chop, via letter hand-delivered by Trump’s former personal bodyguard:

“The way this was done, I think was done to send a message to the FBI agents left behind,” a senior intelligence official told NBC News. “It’s not just that they removed him – it’s that they did it in the most thuggish and humiliating way possible. No notice, no nothing – instant execution. The bodyguard delivers the letter to headquarters. I think that was designed to send a message: Cut this sh– out, or this will happen to you. This is like horse head in the bed.”

CNN is reporting what is said only. The opinion shows debate the accuracy.

From Trump, you mean?

She might be less shocked if she heard the Watergate tapes, or even Johnson talk bluntly.

More like the Derpfather. Everyone involved is Fredo.

Soooo… the WH is sending a message to all those thousands of everyday looking people who work in the dark for a living? Those people?

The White House Don might think this through a bit more and remember that most of the people he is sending this message to carry guns and have the means to discover lots of things he may not wish to be discovered.

Where is “Deep Throat” now that we really need him?

He’s not a private business person.
