Several White House officials concur: President Trump’s frequent attacks on lawmakers and other people of color are a “bad move,” in the New York Times’ words.
The probe is believed to specifically target Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner, both senior adviser who have admitted to using personal accounts for official business.
While their flouting of the law should certainly be investigated and punished, the real scandal about those two is that they are engaged in any official business whatsoever.
But her emails…
So, now Trump will have to hold an Oval Office presser, wherein he gathers several close staffers to give testimonials that the NYTimes is full of shit, because they personally don’t think rabid race-baiting is bad politics, nor are they aware of anyone else in the White House of that opinion.
What is the difference between Donald J. Trump and the Hindenburg?
One is a big bag of flaming Nazi gas.
The other is an airship.
But it’s his signature move…
WH officials went on to discuss how the Holocaust was problematic for PR purposes, since too many photos were taken at the camps.
Exactly. And he’ll go around the room and each lily white person, e.g, KAC, will say what a fair, virile, handsome, non-rasict person the Asshole in Chief is, and how the real racists are the ones accusing him of racism.
several White House officials agreed during a recent meeting with senior staff that rhetoric wasn’t helpful, but said they didn’t know if they could or should try to stop the President.
Real profiles in courage. If the President is about to something really wrong or profoundly stupid (which he already has) we can depend on these senior “yes” men and women to never, ever tell him, he is about to make a mistake.
That doesn’t make me feel safe. What about you?
Not that he is wrong, they just think it is a bad move.
You know what? No. I don’t GIVE a sht if it’s problematic for people at the WH. If it’s that bad then get out. This is not the FIRST time, or the 49th time…it is HIM and you sit there silent or WORSE you run out and defend the racist, bigoted POS and pretend all is ‘well’. So no. I don’t care that you ‘think’ it’s a bad optic.
To be fair that would entail following him around and engaging in about 42 conversations a day.

In 1930s Germany, Jewish individuals were a very small percentage of the population.
In America of 2019, POC number at least 40% And I am counting lots of different categories of POC.
To do what Trump wants to do would require (as Chief Brody would say)…a bigger boat.
A boat capable of hauling away nearly half of America, guaranteeing destruction of America as we know it.
I believe it is time for those of us who are not Trumpers to cut Chuck Todd off, unsubscribe to Murdoch and roll up our sleeves.
I believe that a corner has been turned over the last week.
Using personal accounts for official business has been an issue since Bush the Lesser’s administration. You would think 10 to 20 years later politicians of either party would get a clue. Bad idea. Now we are talking about the Trump crime family and criminals are rarely masterminds in real life (only in the movies) and lets face it, Javanka is, at best, a 25 watt bulb in a 100 watt universe.

More “access journalism” kabuki. They want you to print this, that’s why. Geez, sez NYT, there are really people inside the admin who are resisting! No there aren’t. If they were really resisting, they wouldn’t be hiding. They’d be leaving and talking.
“Bad move,” vs. “racist,”
Meh, no biggie. I mean, it’s not socialist, amiright?
Gee, ya think?
I’d look 4 that NYT editorial (and other examples), but Tanahashi is about to speak.
Racists gonna race.
