When the media is in an absolute feeding frenzy about speculating who the insider is a lot of real business can get done under their radar, so why not stir the pot?

I think it was McCain.....after he wrote his daughter’s bitter, snide eulogy for himself he handed her the op-ed copy to get over to the NYT just so he could eff with our President from the grave one last time.....yep.....

I refuse to participate in any speculation of who the author of that piece of sh*t “Op-ed” was. I have no doubt that Trump can figure this out if he wants to.

The entire point of publishing this was to undermine Trump’s administration by tricking him into questioning the loyalty of his closest associates. It’s a classic CIA gas-lighting technique, the sort of thing those bastards have used to overthrow lots of governments in the past. I’m not going to play along with it.

If you shoot the emperor you had best not miss. The Deep-State/Intelligence cabal keeps missing over and over again. Some of them might end up with severe neck-aches before this is over.

Not a chance. Saw that Foxnews shows a screen with photos of all the White House insiders who deny they are Anonymous. Melanias photo was among them. I’m surprised they did not include Donald’s.

If it was not composed at the NYT then it was done by an Obama holdover.There are still far too many of them. Every Republican administration since WWII and maybe before that has been plagued by sabotage and slow walking and just plain ignoring Administration policies.

Lets play the game. The Times’ staff make up a clever story that riles Republicans, and gets them to start accusing each other as the traitor who wrote the article. I say it was Pence,so there...lets blame him. No, I say its Pompeo, so there...lets blame him. No, I say its Melania. Yes, of course its Melania...so lets attack her. Of course, we need to continue this strategy of blaming...while the progressives laugh at us for being so easily fooled. That’s the ticket. We’ll show them we can play this game exactly how they planned.

I subscribe to the school of thought that says there is not an “insider author”

I think it’s made up to hurt the Trump Administration.

I think it is what is known as Very Fake News.

Twitter underground seems to think this op-ed was turned in word for word as a colleges essay at USC days before it was in the NYT.

LOL — Nobody with any sense believes the Compost anymore when they try to stir things up by throwing out their falsehoods.
