Of course he did, and who can blame him? Everyone is saying that no-one is smarter than Trump, believe me.

In other words, he did whatever the hell he felt like doing. Just another day in his world.

I’m sure he’s wondering why no one is fellating him for every word he said like they did when he was in the business world.

Following that, I’m sure he doesn’t care.

Does anyone else notice that in the accompanying photograph, he’s starting to look old and exhausted? Ronny Jackson should have another look at him.

I haven’t heard a lot about his much-vaunted “political instincts” since he decided he was going to let Trump be Trump because he had gotten so good at the game. It’s been one sickening disaster after another. Nowadays it’s all don’t touch the hot stove Mr. President. Why not? It will burn you. Maybe it won’t? IT WILL BURN YOU. (Touches stove) Ow ow ow nobody knew stoves were hot and they weren’t until the fake news witch hunt, rinse and repeat.

Just how stupid do these people want to appear?

According to one personal familiar with the planning who spoke to the Post, Trump’s behavior during a press conference with Putin were “very much counter to the plan.”

Whose plan?

Two years and they havent figured out that trump does what he wants to do? That he’s not disciplined? That he’s not mentally stable? That he only cares about himself?

Sorry. I dont think they truly thought trump would stay on script. No one should be surprised at trump’s actions. He’s been telegraphing his contemptuous feelings about this country from day one.

This smells like CYA bullshit.

There is no way Dotard sat through any “intense” preparations. There is even less chance he agreed to this ahem “get tough” strategy.

They knew this was coming, the reaction is very bad, so the snakes are slithering to the tall grass.

They are all traitors in Putin’s back pocket.

So, an unnamed White House advisor, less than 24 hours after the most consequential foreign trip of his Presidency, throws Trump under the bus. If it was ugly in the WH before, this will blow things apart like nothing we’ve seen.

Kelly was probably the source, 2nd guess Bolton.

Spray tan was really over the top yesterday.

Soooooo, the National Security Team gets a first hand view of Trump ignoring all protocol, all decency, all advice, and anything good for the USA - and they still work for Trump.

Speaks volumes.

A real doctor should have a look at him.

Except for the tax bill ( a desperate, money driven anomaly) and the SC nominations (which were handed to him), Trump has not had a single 'success’that I can recall.

His only consistent triumph has been intimidating Rs in Congress.

Seems like John Bolton has joined the ranks of the backstabbing leakers. Not that it’s going to help him protect his reputation, ask John Kelly.t

No. He really is bad at this. If he weren’t popular with the base they’d have pushed him out long ago. Too late now, cowards! Hahahahahaaaa!!!

Will the National Security team resign? If not, they are co-conspirators or without back bones or both. This is probably window dressing.

OK, so the prep team has to feign surprise that the Disaster-in-Chief did what we all knew he would do.

What happens now? We’re long past the do-nothing stage.

The world is waiting.

Of course he rolled over like a puppy dog to have has his belly scratched. He’s a bully that doesn’t like to face people. He can’t even fire his own cabinet members in person. He does it over twitter.

How many times have we seen him talk tough about someone and then suck up to them in person?

Trump didn’t go rogue. He is just working for his true masters.
