It didn’t take long to find out what an unleashed Donald Trump looks like — and I’m not referring to his petulant, un-Christian comments at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday morning or even his toxic, stream-of-subconsciousness victory lap in the East Room of the White House early that afternoon, during which the leader of the free world introduced “top scum” and “bullshit” to the public presidential lexicon.
Sure, both performances offered disturbing glimpses into Trump’s very scary emotional state, as if his Twitter feed weren’t enough. But even as he debuted the latest iteration of his angry-victim performance art, he and his allies also started settling scores in a startlingly open way.
And it may be a long while before we know the true depths of his political depravities because on the same day that Trump was acquitted, Attorney General Barr issued new guidance that he must personally approve any politically-sensitive investigations. Barr, who has dispensed with his office’s traditional independence from the president, has been a vocal critic of Mueller’s investigation, even though it produced dozens of indictments, seven guilty pleas (many from top Trump aides) and five prison sentences. And now he has insulated Trump from any fears of being held accountable in the run-up to the November elections.
Though a number of Senate Republicans have suggested that Trump had learned a lesson from his impeachment, early indications are that he intends to teach a number of people some very hard lessons — including about believing people when they show you who they are — instead.

Democrats are virtually incorrigible, and it seems to me that it is also their globally chronic folly from which anyone should be learning.

RE: “NBC Opinion: Trump’s purging everyone he thinks is disloyal. He was never going to learn from impeachment.”
May you be plagued by dastards like Trump has been dealing with - you’d move Heaven and Earth to remove and hurt them..think about it (if you actually think)
I KNOW...I LOVE IT.
Stupid journalists CANNOT SEE it, because they see everything through the prism of ...OOOOoooo, NOW his supporters will leave him...LOOK AT WHAT HE DID.
No foresight, no hindsight, no introspection and NO REFLECTION. I despise reporters.
Bobby Kennedy?
Janet Reno
Eric Holder
Loretta Lynch?
Your supposed to bow before the Young Lord.
If my parents beat the daylights out of me for something I didn’t do, I would learn that they were crueland that you can’t please them; especially if it kept happening.
I would be angry, and I would resent them. I might not be able to fire them, but I could dam sure leave. I could stop trying to please them or including them in my life.
I would not be impressed by their power, or be afraid to cross them.
Is that what the demonrats wwant him to do?
They must be genuinely stupid the think that a billionaire beyond retirement age would be personally better off living a the life of luxury he deserves.
But then, they were trying to prove corruption
..anything..to hang him with the EO he signed a couple of Decembers ago that would cause him to forfeit all of his income. The one that they are goinh to be hung with.
How long would a Trump supporter last at NBC?
Donald Trump Isn’t the Only President Who Loves Firing People
(Lincoln, A. Johnson, Taft, Truman, Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, Obama, Trump)
Robert Schlesinger + Democrats = Still Losers
You can’t educate pig iron ore to be gold.
That’s why he’s purging all of those backstabbers.”””
Moving a rattlesnake from the kitchen to the garage isn’t keeping anyone safe.
You dispatch an enemy. You don’t just turn & walk away.
He has learnt from the attempted impeachment. He's learnt that not all snakes are long, thin and harmless; some are short,fat, poisonous and are best gotten rid of.
Have the Democrats learned anything from a failed impeachment?
I’d say he learned exactly what he should have!!
Purge baby, purge!!!!!!!
This from the people who can’t tolerate anyone having different views from them without physically attacking them and/or teying to get them thrown in jail.
NBC= Nothing But Crap.
Why any of these ignorant so called journalists would think any of PRESIDENT TRUMPS real supporters would leave him over firing scumbag crypto democrats is beyond my comprehension.
We were more pissed at him for NOT FIRING 100.0% of these foul creatures on DAY ONE of his Presidency.
100% of Justice Dept.
100% of State Dept.
100% of FBI.
100% of CIA.
100% of NSA.
100% of every other alpha bet soup organization.
Fire them all, you can sort out the honest ones later and re-hire, if so desired.
Seriously?
No, by all means, keep disloyal people in their jobs. I mean, what's the worse that can happen?
Jeez these people are morons...
That’s a good idea!!
Pass on this propaganda.
Really.
It always frosts me when non-believers try to lecture believers how to behave.
