For Feck’s Sake! THIS is the guy lending credibility to the White House?
This is understandable, but I think e-mailing the nuclear launch codes to Putin really needs analyzed for propriety.
This isn’t surprising to anyone who watched his press conference.
Impeachment? JP Morgan’s trading desk says not now. And apparently, what we have now is a “pro-growth agenda”. Seriously, these guys get paid for this?
Trump - impeachment very, very unlikely and regardless it wouldn’t be positive. There is a lot of talk about Trump impeachment and how a President Pence could be a positive. It is way, way too early to begin having the impeachment conversation. Impeachment is much more a political (instead of a legal) process and w/the GOP controlling both chambers and Trump’s popularity in the party being (relatively) healthy the political dynamics don’t signal impeachment. That could change in Jan '19 assuming Republicans lose either the House or Senate in Nov ’18 but if that happens the whole pro-growth agenda would grind to a halt. The impeachment bar is very, very high (no president ever has been removed from office as a result of impeachment; two had articles of impeachment brought up in the House before being acquitted in the Senate; one resigned before going through the process). The daily scandals obviously don’t help Trump’s political capital but market expectations for legislative action are already very low.
Can anyone in this administration do their effing job?
Or rather, does anyone understand their effing job?
Somebody is trying to save HRs honour ?
The terrifying thing is that the answer is “yes, relatively speaking.”
I don’t get this report at all. Unless McMaster is quoted saying he didn’t realize it, how can anybody else know whether he realized it or not?
“If there was nothing the President shared that he shouldn’t have shared, why did they contact the NSA and CIA?” a reporter asked.
“I’m not sure,” McMaster replied.
Good to know the National Security Advisor is clueless.
While hosting the Russian Foreign Minister and Ambassador in the Oval Office.
Surrounded by TASS reporters, microphones, and cameras.
While discussing top-secret intelligence matters.
Is there anyone in the White House leper colony that knows what the hell they’re doing?

Rhetorical, right?
Entire GOP, in chorus: “McMaster’s was joking!”
Entire GOP, in chorus: “McMaster’s was joking!”
“Did he joke then or is he joking now ?”
The only reason other countries aren’t seizing this opportunity to take us over is because they really don’t want to have to clean up the mess Trump is making.
My Gawd! Do these people know ANYTHING at all? Jeesh, buncha asswipes.
Please contact your do-nothing GOP Rep or Senator. Jeesh…like a 5th Grade playground recess.
The Dunning-Kruger on display when the Masters of the Universe talk about politics is hilarious to me. They think they are so tough and smart and savvy, so deep in the know (because after all, they pay famous people to talk to them), so thoroughly immersed in what they think is the “real world” that they are continually played for chumps by the Republican pols they donate to.
But where are the clowns?
Quick, send in the clowns.
Don’t bother, they’re here.
Unbelievable. Such sheer stupidity and failure to look into something before you speak leads to this. A administration full of clowns led by the lead clown.
Where are the adults in the room!!!
Question–Since McMaster has to obey his Commander-in-Chief, does that mean he can’t resign?
“When President Donald Trump casually shared highly classified intel with top Russian diplomats last week,…”
The media needs to get this right - he shared highly classified intelligence with the Russian media.
A reporter from Tass was in the room. Listening. Taking pictures. He might as well have broadcast the meeting on Russian television.
Oh, and he shared the info with some diplomats who happened to be in the room, as well.
Somebody not too good at it.
