~cough~ Bannon ~cough~

Trump is so dumb, that he needs this kind of advice.

Because Bannon’s spilling to Kutner (got him ousted?) and his spilling to Michael Wolfe wasn’t enough to demonstrate to Trump that Bannon is a bad hombre for Trump?

Can you imagine any other president in the modern era requiring such a message to the President, via the press.

Republicans must really be starting to worry about him firing Mueller. Unfortunately, it may wind up being too little, too late. I think that they are (belatedly) realizing that they are losing whatever positive control they might have had (or thought they had) over him. sigh

Who gives a shit about the president*’s interest. The country’s internet is what’s important. The sooner tRump is gone the better we’ll all be.

It doesn’t say anything good about our president when his “close allies” are tweeting not to encourage him. The peril in the White House must be much greater than we know.

Not just Bannon either (besides, he seems to be attempting to advice Trump’s aides in private, not public). He specifically calls out people advising Trump “over the air” to fire Mueller. That’s Fox News.

Anyone advising Trump to do anything except resign doesn’t have the Nation’s best interests in mind.

Someone typing on Trump’s twitter device responds:

Too many polysyllabic words and no unhinged all caps or exclamation points for Trump to have written it.

Is there any doubt how quickly he’d backtrack if Trump actually did fire Mueller?

Orrin Hatch has switched positions in front of a camera more times than Stormy Daniels.

Nobody seems too worried about Rosenstein being fired.

So, Sen Hatch, are you committing–right here, right now–to vote to convict pResident tRump if the House impeaches him for firing Mueller?

“The whole world is watching.”

does not have the … nation’s best interest at heart.

There may be no citizen less concerned with the nation’s best interests than Donald J. Trump. So tell him first, Orrin. And tell him you’ll argue strenuously for impeachment if he does it. Because that’s what you’d do if you had the nation’s interest in mind yourself.

Anyone advising the President — in public or over the airwaves— to fire Bob Mueller does not have the President or the nation’s best interest at heart.

Strong words Hatch…that’ll put an end to this. :unamused:

Who in this administration does have the nation’s best interests at heart? Just write their names on a sticky note…

How does Trump fire Rosenstein without first replacing Sessions with a non-recused toady?

His lawyers allowed him to add “(Unlike the Clintons!)” to pacify him.

Who’s he dictating his less garbled tweets to, now that Hope Hicks has left?
