If This Politico Story Is True, the President Needs New Advisers

May 11, 2017

RUSH: The Politico today… By the way, you need to be reading all of these and watching all these stories with more doubt and disbelief than you have ever mustered.

As you read, or any time you see “anonymous source said,” you must disbelieve it. The evidence is much greater and much of this is made up than that it is legitimate and real. You must remember that media isn’t media. You are not reading “the news.” You are being inculcated. You’re being propagandized. You are being misinformed for the purposes of advancing a narrative and agenda, which is to force Donald Trump out of office. The news about this investigation today is wonderful.

The steel business is in great shape. Other kinds of businesses are in great shape. They’re singing the praises of the Trump administration! You’re not gonna hear anything about that. It doesn’t fit the narrative. Now, The Politico. Let me finally get to this. There’s a Politico story that says Trump is puzzled that the Russia story won’t disappear. There is another story that says Trump expected that firing Comey would calm all of this down, because he was of the belief — like the Stephen Colbert TV audience — that the Drive-Bys and the Democrats hated Comey.

So Politico says Trump is shocked and dismayed twice. He’s shocked and surprised that the Russia story won’t disappear, and he’s stunned that getting rid of Comey has not placated the Democrats. This tells me that Trump does not have the proper advisers around him. He does not have people who really know the lay of the land. He does not have people who can tell him how Washington works… If these two things are true, then he doesn’t have anybody around him who understands what’s even happening to them. No question about it.

If Russians wanted dirt leaked on Hillary only a few phone calls would be necessary.

Putin can certainly get an article published in a Moscow area media source normally read by US reporters in Moscow.

Rush used to quote Politico all the time, almost to the point of endorsing them. Like he did Zogby. Rush you are so full of $hite.

Why would you believe this crap? Oh, right you were an “almost” NeverTrumper.

Rush = Charlie Brown

To think I used to love this douche!

Like the “Brilliant” President Trump needs advice from YOU, Rush.

President Rush, Air Force One is ready to take off, sir.

“Okay, I just have to finish my point.

3 hours later..... President Rush, Air Force One is ready to take off, sir.

“Okay, I just have to finish my point.

That’s a good suggestion. He is insider enough to know how stuff works, but independent enough to not get swallowed by the DC bureaucratic black hole.

Not likely. First of all Rush doesn't have any Children. Second I am a she, and finally I am older than he is. Also my Freeper name consist of the last three letters of my maiden name and the last three letters of my married name.

I would not be surprised if you don't know what maiden name means since you don't know the difference between a transcript and a blog.

Here’s how it works:

Nope, the Swamp will win every time.

Agreed. Even her guitar-pickin’ dad could probably do a better job.

Anybody who thinks for a second that Trump thought the Democrats would be please with the firing of Comey, doesn’t understand Trump.

Politico doesn’t understand him, hence this stupid faux news article.

Trump knew the Dems would go nuts and he double tapped them when he posted the Dem/Comey hatred video on his twitter feed.

Yes, but Newt has the Newt problem which is he can’t stop talking. He just doesn’t know when to shut up, and he frequently says stuff that gets him or his boss in trouble.

The point is that Rush has nailed it.

Trump gets what’s going on, but has no team in place who gets it, or who can level the playing field. I believe the TV team representing the West Wing is woefully cut out of the loop, maybe by Trump himself, who is battling against leaks and active on the fly. Who can keep up?

My theory is that if White House spokesmen don’t know what is going on, as in the case of Sarah Sanders yesterday, or they have no access to TRUMP and his actions and they have no background to his actions, then they should refuse to be sent out there on all the talk shows to demonstrate their total ignorance on a news breaking subject.

It looks bad. It makes the White House look bad and hurts the president.

Either come to these media rounds and news night appearances with something to say, or else issue briefest of statements until which time you know what the hell is going on and can get an act together that delivers a reasonably polished narrative.

Otherwise, SHUT UP, until you’re prepared.
