You cannot shut out the enemy because you have to find out what they have in store for you. Even patton was in contact with the krauts if they had enough, and if they didn’t, he just send more troops to punish them.
Therefore, the optics of Ari or ANY of the Emanuels going in that impressive door for a meet-and-greet with our president-elect were and are not helpful in any way to our man.
Trump will certainly meet and greet some people we hate, despise, disdain or don't trust...and it doesn't bother me a bit....but the Emanuels are beyond the pale in all aspects of personal and political repute.
For those of us who have worked our fannies off during the campaign, it's not comforting to hear that ANY of the Emanuels have entree with the president-elect. I'm a tough babe, not a snowflake at all, but this did not set well with me at all....and I'm voicing my opinion.
Trump could have had a beer with him any time in a private way in a different place ...it didn't have to take place in this particular venue at all.
I simply want to feel as proud as I can when viewing who's walking in and out of that door...even a Romney-and-worse doesn't bother me if they're answering Trump's call for a sit-down...but it DOES bother me to view any one of the opportunistic, creepy, crawly, snaky, commie Emanuel brothers boldly walking through that portal.
Make up all the excuses you want for this stupid pow-wow with Emanuel, but the only thing that came out of that scenario today was negative reactions and bewildered speculations among Trump's supporters....and more gleeful fodder for the corrupt media.
Trump's advisors should know better.
