OT: The office of the President is the lipstick, 45 is the pig.

He finally found a way he can get at Mueller’s investigation.

If he does this, what would stop him from choosing any DOJ or FBI employee and doing the same?

But will not stop the investigation, the only way for him to do that is to fire every last agent, investigator, etc. If he’d try that even his collaborators within Congress would get on him.

Pulling Brennan’s clearance was spiteful but did him little real harm. But if he does it to Ohr, it’s going to affect his ability to do his job. It amounts to a purge of someone tarnished by insane conspiracy theories as a distraction from Trump’s real crimes and scandals. So he’s really turning up the dial with this.

And just because he can…how long before he revokes clearances from both Clintons, Biden, and Obama?

Every day, it feels like we’re all passengers trapped on that runaway bus in the film “Speed”.

The 2018 midterms cannot come soon enough…

Trumpp cannot fathom that Ohr wouldn’t be using his position and connections the way Trumpp would in that position.

Well, of course. That’s what any dictator would do. This will blow up in his face of course. Omarosa is on the warpath to the reality-tv hall of infamy.

I don’t think the Clintons or the Obamas would give a fuck if he did.

He has found a new toy. He got really excited about pardons for a minute too but he ended up playing with the box like he always does.

Allowing this twit to obstruct justice with casual ease in plain view, makes this country and its citizens look weak as hell.

He’s really turbocharging his IC sabotage. Pretty soon the only people with security clearances will be the ones who got them from Putin.

That’s actually in my view a huge weakness. Trump can’t understand high-mindedness or integrity, so he doesn’t know how to counter it.

And I’m still asking who figured this out for him? I truly believe Trump is not this smart, this vindictive and petty yes, smart not so much.

Probably Kelly, who appears to be the impetus behind a fair amount of aggressive Nazi bullshit. I read it was Kelly who was pushing Trump to call for jailing Omarosa.

I don’t think it makes citizens look weak, it does make the members of Congress weak and foolish.

no they wouldn’t.

The ones who are either retired (Walsh) or who are headed towards the exit (eventually Ryan) will say something, but the ones who are still enamoured of him, will either approvingly nod or go on Fox News (Rand) and claim that folks like Brennan, Ohr and others should have been handled ages ago.

This upcoming November is when a message needs to be sent. Anything before that is just joshing.

Probably because she’s a mere woman, and a woman of color that got his goat.

80 days until the election folks. It may seem like an eternity but, as long as he doesn’t start a nuclear war in the next three months (fingers crossed) I think we’ll make it.

Indeed it does especially in light of some polling I saw that said that a majority of GOP want Congress to check this president.

Not as big a majority as the Democrats polled, but a slim majority nevertheless.
