Again, sadly, with Oroville, now’s the best time for the big shake-up.

Gingrich did that over 20 years ago. But he’s a great big GOPe globalist. Not the guy.

The one on the list who really worries me is Gary Cohn. He got more than a quarter billion dollars when he left Goldman Sachs and is a big friend of lifely Democrat Jared Kushner.

I like the Rick Dearborn name because he was Sessions’s longtime chief of staff, and so I trust him and his ability to work with Steve Miller.

Along with Cohn, another name that worries me is Dave Urban:

“Roll Call identified “Urban [as] a member of Washington’s community of influential Republican moderates and pragmatists,” and The Hill named Mr. Urban as a “Top Lobbyist” who has “mastered the art of working Capitol Hill’s hallways.””

Is Kellyanne tough enough? I presume they saw enough of her management style and abilities when she was the campaign chair. I trust her loyalty to Trump and wonder who else he might bring in to replace her.

Newt a good talker and knows a lot, but I still do not trust him.

The Nancy Pelosi photo for Global Warming is all the proof any Conservative Nationalist needs to see.

Pretty hard to keep a traitorous leaker on staff, fooling anybody, and stop him from his traitorous leaking.

I like Trump’s tendency to make corrections when a hire isn’t working out. Then when he finds the right person, he apparently treats him or her well in a very long working relationship.

Would never be my first choice (or 2nd, 3rd 4th.....) because I don’t think he can be trusted to make the interests of POTUS his only priority.

Crap Marie Harf on Outnumbered. Can’t watch.

I think he saw early on (summer) where the RATs and RINOs were going with Russia, and gave them some red meat to pre-occupy themselves while Mattis got Vice Adm. Bob Harward ‘free’ to take the job. A SEAL ‘rock’, that’s the guy we needed all this time.

I never thought DJT was serious about Flynn, just a distraction for the enemy.

I do not trust Priebus. He should be replaced. He’s the GOPe’s fifth column in the White House. Trump needs people he can absolutely trust. No more of this “reaching out” to the GOPe, they are going to try and bring him down. Please Mr. President, don’t give them any more ammunition.

“I would like to see Trey Gowdy.”

And Trey isn’t wishy washy? All horn, no driveshaft in my opinion. Major disappointment I thought going in he was the “real deal!” My mistake!

True

How Trump responds will be the test. With his latest apeal before all judges of the court. My guess is , he's wanting each judge to be on record for their decision.

He sounds like a great pick.

But no, I don’t believe Trump named Flynn with the idea of replacing him three weeks into his administration.

I do. About an hour ago, Bill Hemmer somewhat nervously stated there is a Russian spy ship 90 miles off the coast of Delaware. FR hasn’t caught up to this yet.

If Trump goes hard on Putin right now with this new guy and Mattis, the Left will be forced to drop their Russia hysterics and find something new to scream about.

Priebus, on the other hand, I don’t think was expected to last long term beyond pushing cabinet nominees and a first 100 days legislative slate through. Instead, the nominees were slow walked and Ryan hasn’t done a thing on the tax cuts and Obamacare. Then there is the leaking. So that one is easy.

Given that, I guess I could see Flynn as the quick candidate for that slot, but I also don’t think the plan could have been to replace him this quickly. Still, something was up with Bannon getting more involved with the NSC a couple of weeks ago.

Yes, by all means, lets get rid of Flynn, Bannon, Priebus,Conway, Mattis, everyone.......

Do we need a paint by number here to figure out this picture?

But the GOPe military-industrial complex, backed by China, is itching for war with Russia. Hard to tell what is true and what is significant at this point. I am pretty sure we have spy ships within 90 miles of Russia too.

While it’s sad to see Flynn go, I won’t shed any tears if Priebus is kicked out and replaced by somebody better. Along with Nikki Haley, Priebus is probably Trump’s most disappointingly pro-establishment pick.

Of course we do. And if DJT pokes Putin right now, the Left will be silenced. Well, except for ‘this should have been done earlier, and what about the elections’ BS. Then he breaks open his vote fraud evidence and the RATS have to find something *else* to wail about. They’re being totally played, and are too disorganized to see it.
