Even George Papadopoulos is trolling the slug...
I am loving it.
A good one from Cates this morning.

Like I’ve been saying for a year and a half now, Trump and his people put out disinformation for two reasons. To catch leakers and make their enemies look in the wrong direction.
Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump
As has been incorrectly reported by the Fake News Media, I never told then White House Counsel Don McGahn to fire Robert Mueller, even though I had the legal right to do so. If I wanted to fire Mueller, I didn’t need McGahn to do it, I could have done it myself. Nevertheless,....
Why in the bloody blue blazes would Trump need to WORK THROUGH HIS LAWYER to fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller?
IF Trump was going to go through anybody to fire Mueller, he’d have gone through Rod Rosenstein.
But he didn’t even go through Rosenstein when he fired Comey.
The freaking story was absurd on it’s face.
Timid Trump, stomping around the White House, suddenly turns and demand McGahn to fire Mueller for him.
McGhan, the story goes, refuses to do it.
Pouting in his impotent rage, Trump sulks inside the White House, helpless!
Oh no! McGahn won’t follow orders!
Now Trump is helpless!
There’s nothing he can do!
Give ME a freaking break.
Guy who’s favorite catchphrase in his TV show was “YOUR FIRED!” is gonna storm off and sulk in his room and drink Diet Coke and watch Fox News because one of his underlings wouldn’t obey his orders?
This entire story feeds into the LEFTY VERSION of the White House.
SOMEBODY was fed this BS and ran with it because it FITS perfectly the DNC Media’s view of the Trump White House - dysfunctional, chaotic, seething raging Trump being ‘saved from himself’ by underlings who ignore his orders.
