Oh, haven’t you heard? That one’s been backtracked to “until very recently”…

If that first reaction was the collective wisdom of Drumpfie’s staff, and it was so damned easy to disprove, it shows one of two things:

a) they are all completely incompetent and clueless, or
b) they have all thrown in the towel on arguing with Drumpfie – because this amateurish, legless reaction sounds just like him.

Of course, it could very well be a combination of both, but my money says t was Drumpfie’s idea but Drumpfie was so enraged that nobody wanted to contradict him and let the damned thing go out.

All of the above explanations are showing the widening cracks in the facade…

“…exasperated that his son and namesake…”

I prefer the NYT description:

DIM SON namesake

I think the word “crafted” is a verb that can be left out of any actions performed by Trump aides…

Here’s a definition of hell: being a lawyer working for Trump. Enormous shoe drops and Trump lets WH staff write the response? Where are the lawyers? All they get to do is try to clean up the mess made by Trump, Jared, Ivanka and the other toadies.

That last phrase: and engaged in behavior that left employees uncomfortable. Bet Trump found that an endearing quality in the lawyer.

So how long do we think this administration is going to last? Things seem to have accelerated. Maybe PP will stroke out from all his rage.

The presidential limo is being replaced with a turnip truck needing shocks…

So don senior signed off on the cover up strategy? I can see his fingerprints. Handled this as carefully, competently and honestly as the rest of his body of fine work for the nation.
–> The guy really has a gift for taking the long view ahead, doesn’t he?

Notice that Trump himself signed off on the final statement. There is no reason to believe he is as shielded as his team claims. Like Nixon he is in the middle of everything.
