Has he changed his name to McWraith yet?

Definitely not the McMaster of his own domain.

“I don’t remember exactly what the President said,” McMaster said.

I’m tempted to give the guy a break.

After all, he was only the National Security Advisor.

With the Russian foreign minister and ambassador.

In the Oval Office.

It’s not like paying attention was his job or anything.

“I don’t remember.” The last refuge of scoundrels throughout history.

Pence is going to be mad that so many people are stealing his lines. “I don’t remember”. “I wasn’t aware”. “It’s possible, but I don’t recall”.

And he’s still about a thousand times better than the other guy - Flynn. Imagine that!

They ought to put this job out on Craig’s List. Couldn’t do much worse.

Trump’s entire cabinet is gonna start experiencing lapses of memory …

“Sorry, Sen. Warren … I do not remember my mother’s name.”

McMaster’s job is to prevent WWIII. Showing up Trump doesn’t help him achieve that goal.

He doesn’t remember? You mean that Trump’s not the only one with dementia?

Swell.

Seriously, McMaster either wasn’t there to hear it or is lying, because there’s no way he wouldn’t have “remembered” that. Geez, even McCain was almost speechless when he heard that Trump reportedly said it.

Don’t kill me, but that excuse doesn’t work, when his boss is the political equiv of Jerry Jones n Dan Snyder.

He was there when he attempted to take those WaPo reporters to the shed.

He’s lying of course, but not just for the reasons you think. Because Trump has cognitive issues, he gets angry if anyone around him exhibits a normal working memory. Also, Watergate.

It really doesn’t matter what this guys remembers because it’s in print.

firing the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, had relieved “great pressure” on him, according to a document summarizing the meeting.

“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said, according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

What’s he supposed to do? Contradicting Trump will get him fired. Apparently McMaster had a mollifying impact on Trump’s hate speech in Riyadh. That has to count for something.
All I’m saying is that McMaster seems like the least villainous person in the White House.
