Discussion: NYT: Trump Has Asked John Kelly To Push Ivanka Trump, Kushner Out Of WH

Some months ago we heard the story of him wandering the empty nighttime halls in his bathrobe. Next up, the halls will be conveniently empty all the day long.

I took the implication to be peace has flooded across the middle east, no more opioid addiction, and Mexico’s laying bricks for the wall as we write.

@michaelryerson “Some months ago we heard the story of him wandering the empty nighttime halls in his bathrobe. Next up, the halls will be conveniently empty all the day long.”

That’s a chilling image, given that there’s still that mythic “button” for him to push when his last defenses have crumbled.

That’s the takeaway for me. He’s such a freaking coward. Just sit them down like adults and tell them you love them dearly and endlessly but it’s time for them to go back to NYC. No, it’s not easy, but considering how often they disappear and how much legal jeopardy Jared is already in, it’s not like it would be a bad thing for them. He’s just a wimp who let’s everyone else do the heavy lifting. This news makes me question whether the revolving door at the WH has been Kelly’s doing, or PP’s all along. He’s just too chicken shit to do it himself.

This is why we put up with Maggie Haberman. Hope’s revenge.

Who will save us from this mad king? No really. This is getting scary, even chilling. He’s decompensating right in front of us, we all know it, and can’t do much about it? The damn country is at stake!

He’s under extreme duress with no support structure. Something has got to give.

Between this and “wars are good”, we may just be making a mistake in treating Trump as a rational actor.

They have failed to make Trump appear great.
They have shown he is a failure as a father and father-in-law.
Since he has been unable to make them great and stop the presses on how little they know,he failed again.

I really don’t think it’s even that complicated. He’s just moved onto someone new to blame for his failings. Were there no Mueller investigation, no shady business dealings, he’d still be looking for new fall guys and gals to hold responsible for his total incompetence.

I got it!! Someone should tell Dotard that Lust Object and Wonder Boy are Dreamers and he would kick them out pronto!!!

I can’t believe the man is this cognitively dissonant to say that Jarvanka should’ve never been in the WH. For my own sanity I want to strangely believe that he’s just trying to cover his ass because even the Faux News crowd knows he put them there!

Dear Devin, Paul, et al.,

This is the loyalty you should expect from your leader once the walls start closing in.

How ironic that the guy who said he would have rushed into the Parkland High School ,even without a gun, to save the day, doesn’t have the cajones to tell Jared and Ivanka, in no uncertain terms, to leave the White House. What a truly sniveling blowhard Hair Furor turns out to be.
