If the “senior official” who published an anonymous op-ed bashing President Donald Trump in the New York Times on Wednesday was hoping for accolades from the opposition, he or she must have been sorely disappointed, as the media’s leftists and Never Trumpers accused the author of cowardice for failing to take the extra step of removing Trump altogether. The author claimed to be part of the “resistance” inside the White House. But the real “resistance” wasn’t having it.
Jessica Roy, an anti-Trump writer at the Los Angeles Times, attacked the author in an op-ed titled, “No, anonymous Trump official, you’re not ‘part of the resistance.’ You’re a coward.” She accused the author of “enabling” the president:
Nobody who’s part of the real resistance should be celebrating this. If you work in this administration and carry out any part of Trump’s agenda, you are enabling him, not undermining him. If we have a president so incompetent that his most trusted advisors have to play peekaboo to preserve national security, then those people should be working to get him out of office, not just spare us from his cruelest impulses.
…
If they really believe there’s a need to subvert the president to protect the country, they should be getting this person out of the White House. But they’re too cowardly and afraid of the possible implications. They hand-wave the notion thusly:
“Given the instability many witnessed, there were early whispers within the cabinet of invoking the 25th Amendment, which would start a complex process for removing the president. But no one wanted to precipitate a constitutional crisis.”
How is it that utilizing the 25th Amendment of the Constitution would cause a crisis, but admitting to subverting a democratically elected leader wouldn’t?

How would Tucker know? And if true, this guy needs to resign if he doesn’t like working in the Trump administration.
In their shoe*
They can’t and won’t.. By this time next week it will be “ancient” news when the left is melting down over a new SCOTUS affirmed judge.

Was it that attorney who recently announced he’s leaving?
I wouldn't trust Obozo's Secret Service to guard the beer truck.
My takeaway: Never try to placate the left because no matter what you give, it will never be enough.
I hired a recognized expert in anonymous notes. Paid him $4000 plus airfare to Cincinnati to suss it out. All he did was have small groups at the company listen to the note read out loud and name the person who i real life sounded like the note (this was done by secret ballot). 35 employees later, one employee had 13 votes. He confessed with an hour.
That is interesting
It is obvious to the world this person is a coward unfit to work in government!

Thanks davikkm.
To slam the President and to make him suspicious of his staff...
“lodestar” = a favorite Pence word.
Perhaps it was made to appear as though it was the work of Pence.
amorosa, before she was fired.
