He should have known that himself and should have made it an objective to get rid of his enemies

Blah, Blah, Blah Well, we've found the guy who knows how to clean up the swamp. Give this buckaroo a gun and a badge and let him ride in there and clean up the town. Let us know how you're doing.

Any outsider going into the Washington cesspool would KNOW there are lots of hold-outs and hangers-on that are out to get him. He should have known that himself and should have made it an objective to get rid of his enemies, the same way Clinton fired all the U.S. Attorneys. I can’t buy that a seasoned CEO of a huge enterprise wouldn’t understand his enemies were all around and out to get him.

How?

Ancient dude called Archimedes said he could lift the world, if he had a place to stand, and a long enough lever.

Trump doesn't have anyplace to stand. He would need someone he can trust (there aren't any) and people to replace them with (there aren't any.)

[Robert357]

Good for Trump. Drain the Swamp!

[Dogbert41]

You win the nomination of the Republican Party. Normally, the entire organization comes in to help you get your administration established. Well, we all see how that went. They all did everything in their power to destroy Trump. Just about the whole lot of them. Only one he should have kept around is Steve Bannon, but they made damn sure they got rid of his very early on.

[dirtymac]

Because he can’t even trust republicans to give him unbiased information

You don't have to buy squat. You can go out and run for president yourself and show Trump how to do it. But I doubt you will ever do more then sit at your keyboard and bitch about what Trump has or has not done. The funny part is, you don't have a clue about what Trump is up against, nor about what you are talking about.

Trump needs to make examples of these traitors.
Line the clintons and obamas and all the others up against a wall and yell fire.

...personally met with Steele before and after the 2016 presidential election. ...supporter of former Obama and Clinton.

Why weren’t these people identified and rooted out TWO YEARS AGO?

This is one of President Trump’s greatest failings.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My first take is that there are thousands of deep staters in gummit now or even nomination pending from obammy years.

Processing & vetting them all (especially from a rookie pol & never trump cingress) presents a lotta hoops to hump thru.

Luckily they nipped this in the bud.

You can’t be serious. She’s a nothing ambassador candidate to ALBANIA, for Pete’s sake. I think this is pretty low on the list of most important things to worry about, especially since she was never actually confirmed or posted.

[hinckley buzzard]

In the overall picture, ambassadorial appointments in the 21st century are small fish. Communications are so redundant today that the old fashioned diplomatic channel is obsolete. Nobody cares who ambassadors are, really.

[fortheDeclaration]

Should have sent him to Albania as punishment

[stylin19a]

winner !!

I could live with a guy like Newt helping him wade thru the cesspool

[ProtectOurFreedom]

And you think she’s the only one left? There are tens of thousands like her in high positions and low. She is a perfect symptom of the disease infecting fedgov.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Of course you are right. But you know there are tens of thousands or more like her in all sorts of important and unimportant positions in fedgov.

[Magnum44]

So you blame President Trump for not having rooted out all these Obama plants? Nice. Feel free to run, get elected, and juggle all these balls better...

[ETCM]

The stones on this chick, thinking she would never be found out.

'Why weren’t these people identified and rooted out TWO YEARS AGO?

Imagine if Trump had requested Comey's resignation on Day 1, then appointed a trusted, loyal, bulldog of a AG. We could be living in a very different country right now.

[WWG1WWA]

You don’t get it, do you. There is massive controlled opposition in virtually every aspect of the government. They are cleaning house, but it takes time because Obama gave a blanket pardon to all who worked during the Obama Administration. PDJT has his hands full.

Nonsense. Many of these ambassadorships go to career diplomats. Has to be 98% Democrats at State.

[Osage Orange]

Don’t know if “greatest” qualifies...but one wonders.

[blueplum]

one of our state dept leakers?
