Judicial Watch ^ | 14 December 2018 | Chris Farrell

Posted on 12/15/2018 1:10:53 PM PST by zeestephen

Whoever the next White House chief of staff may be, I offer the following advice with the benefit of 35 years of experience as an Army officer, intelligence case officer, defense contractor, educator and fiduciary of a national, nonprofit government watchdog organization.

This is good advice for President Trump.

It fits his style.

Farrell hits it out of the park.

Sessions could have used some of his “training”. Maybe then Sessions wouldn’t have made all the dumb ass cowardly decisions he made at DOJ by SUBMITTING to the Deep State DOJ careerists.

The opposite of "opportunists, careerists, establishment-types, cowards, and subversives (who would pen anonymous opinion pieces for the New York Times)" is not "disruptors."

The opposite of all that is "executors"...that is, executors of the President's agenda--disruptive, creative, and otherwise.

The President is THE disruptor. We don't need, nor does the President need, a WH staff that consists of disruptors.

He needs a staff that follows his orders under the direction of the COS and works toward the President's agenda.

Trump's WH is like the studio of an influential artist, like Rodin's studio in Paris.

The artists under Rodin's tutelage were not there to go off on their own. They were there to learn from the master and to carry out his vision.

There were plenty of opportunities to try and incorporate their ideas into their work, but they were not there to disrupt.

Trump doesn't need disruptors. He is the visionary.

He is THE disruptor.

He needs loyal soldiers and apprentices will who bring his vision to fruition.

I should have added in my comments above that I have great respect for Chris Farrell. He makes a great contribution to our country and I meant no disrespect to him or his article.

I know that his heart was in the right place with what he said here and he was pointed in the right direction.

By executing the President's directive's, his staff will be disruptive. Not because they are disruptive but because they are carrying out the orders and directives of their great commander and chief.

Sessions was being blackmailed.

In my opinion, Trump appointed only two Conservatives to run Departments or Agencies.

Scott Pruitt, former EPA Director, who was destroyed by the Mainstream Media and Democrat lifers at EPA.

And, Ryan Zinke, Secretary of the Interior, who also got the Pruitt treatment and will resign soon.

In the West Wing, acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney has Conservative credentials, but since the Fiscal Year 2018 budget went $800 billion in debt while Mulvaney was OMB Director, I don't have any confidence in him.

The MSM claims that Presidential Adviser Stephen Miller is a Conservative, but since the MSM is the only news source that talks about him, I am skeptical.

Bottom Line - almost everyone Trump has appointed is centrist or center-left, so I am not holding breath until the “disruption” starts.
