Does this individual think he could possibly survive the aftermath of a hit on Trump?
I believe that he is actually voicing the opinion of many in the Deep State. Mudd himself came out of the CIA, and is still a member of their cabal. He just now parrots their goals through CNN (Google: Operation Mockingbird).
I also believe there is currently a WAR between Trump and the white hats still in government (Admiral Rogers at NSA, the rest of the military, good agents still in government), and the black hats in other agencies.
We should all be praying for President Trump and his team.
