Trump will never take responsibility for anything he does.

He can’t.

Drumpfie always has to win the Blame Game.

Doesn’t understand his tweets kept picking open the scabs his handlers tried to place over the self-inflicted wounds.

That’s the thing about narcissists: they demand loyalty while giving none. They will always turn on you. Looking forward to seeing each of these a*holes get thrown under the bus, one by one.

Eventually Trump will upset one of his lackeys enough to cause him/her to flip and spill many beans in this house of cards. Can’t wait.

“I am not sure the president completely understands how these roles are segregated.”

How often does Trump get tactfully called an idiot? So often he doesn’t get the absolute basic stuff, the first stuff you’d ask about in a new situation.

Totally agree on this. There are only so many people (some of whom started out as being very loyal) he can throw under the bus before they start to think there’s absolutely no downside to flipping on him.

For supposedly hiring only the best people, Trump sure seems to complain a lot about how the people around him have let him down.

Eventually his ire will have to settle on the princeling … there’s no escaping it.

On the other hand, GOP-world is chock full of greedy idiots who will do anything to afford a nice McMansion in Loudon County. The process will take many more iterations than we expect.

‘I can’t do the thing you’re suggesting. You have to let the process unfold,’” the advisor told Politico.

Well, that's poor advice. Donald Trump doesn't ***HAVE*** to do anything, unless he wants to. Ask Donald Trump, he'll tell you it is so.

Generally speaking I agree except, as far as I can see, this situation with Rump’s regime has a real sell-by date. Cashing in on the MAGA gravy train seems to me to be providing diminishing returns at this point

Of course, he does. Does anybody REALLY wonder why nobody wants to work for Trump? Why give up ANY kind of job to do this? He will fire you, throw you under the bus, denigrate you to the twitter trolls so they can swarm you…WTF?

"What is going on with Russia and Mueller are matters involving Trump in his personal capacity,” said the unnamed WH insider.
Actually, no. This isn’t just a matter of Trump having a shady private business deal on the side. This is a matter of multiple WH insiders, perhaps including Trump himself, colluding with Russians to throw the election and to hide corrupt dealings in Russia. This is a matter of multiple meetings inside the WH, in fact using the WH, to promote this corruption. So to say that the the WH Counsel is outside the sphere of this investigation is just wrong.
If McGahn’s role were really to protect the WH as an institution, he would have filed charges against Trump long ago.

“This is one of the misconceptions about the White House counsel’s office. Don represents the institution. What is going on with Russia and Mueller are matters involving Trump in his personal capacity,” one of the informal White House advisers told Politico. “I am not sure the president completely understands how these roles are segregated.”

Let me assure you, oh Mr. White House Advisor, that a man who demands loyalty oaths makes no such distinctions.

McGahn gets what he deserves. Anyone working for The Apprentice in the Oval Office is begging for abuse. McGahn is an adult,he can leave anytime he wishes. Shed no tears for Donnie.
