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.

Cleanup in aisle 13!
“Barr, who has dispensed with his office’s traditional independence from the president,...”
Not like 0bama’s self-proclaimed “wingman” Eric Holder.
Alternate interpretation of the same data:
Trump has learned from the impeachment that you can’t allow venomous serpents to remain in your house.
...and well he should!
Does anyone give serious consideration to NBC's opinion?
So, what’s the problem ?
Yes,Mr. Schlesinger, there will be no “Peace Offensive” by Donald John Trump President of the United States - nor should there be.
I will not repeat the lies, betrayals, threats, and all manner of filth brought against this man and his family over the last three years. He has the duty to defend himself, his family, and his Country from further political abominations.
Christmas will not come early this year for the Left and their Red Dog pets the Democrat Party.
We will no longer be morally, intellectually, socially nor physically intimidated by these people.
We will not be separated from our President!
This is hard medicine for the elite lifted nostril Left who have effectively used Smear and the fear of it for decades instead of good ideas and policies that could work in a free society. All to often it was we who apologized for upsetting -them.
They thought Hillary would complete the wrecking job Obama started, but got a president in Donald Trump that is in the process of rebuilding the very country they were destroying.
This has now driven them insane.
If the American People must choose national survival over sensitivity so be it. They started the wildfire of Impeachment and Treason against this Nation and its People. Now the wind has changed and they are running before the flames of retribution.
America’s enemies thought they might like “the smell of Napalm in the morning”. Our message to them -get used to it.
Like there’s something wrong with the CEO firing managers who don’t support or sabotage his agenda? We the stockholders ( people who elected Trump) say WHAT TOOK HIM SO LONG?
Yo, SchlesingerIdiot.....Trump should have purged all Obama hires, etc. DAY TWO in office!!!!!
Obama started with all the U.S. Attorneys, didn’t he?
And he went on from there ‘til the whole bureaucracy was marching in step.
Of course, that was just fine with the MSM.
+1
President did learn from the fiasco.
He learned he can now punish those who lied and were poor employees CAN BE FIRED.
THIS IS THE PRESIDENT FOR WHOM WE VOTED.
KEEP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING, MR. PRESIDENT, GET RID OF THE SWAMP CREATURES.
He learned he can now punish those who lied and were poor employees CAN BE FIRED.
1. We don’t give a flip if you don’t like how we talk.
2. Anything President Trump does is “Presidential” because he is the President.
3. This is a lie that the Attorney General is supposed to be independent of the President. The AG is subordinate to the President. There is no fourth branch of government named Attorney General. Just ask Eric Holder and Janet Reno what they think about acting independently from the President.
Additionally, OPM proposed streamlining the process by which agencies can demote or fire workers for “unacceptable” performance, clarifying that agencies are not required to help employees improve or provide an improvement period longer than federal law requires.
What an idiot!
NBC “spews”.
Looks to me like Trump has learned pretty well not to trust anyone from the swamp, to identify them and purge them.
Schlesinger is just another pointy headed Zionist traditionalisst who act as one without thinking about it much at all. Party line hacks.
The CommiecRAT party has spent the last 3 years working EXCLUSIVELY to overthrow Trump’s Presidency based on BULLSH*T. They maliciously impeached him but FAILED to remove him from office. At this point they have given every indication that they are going to continue to try and destroy him. They haven’t changed, they haven’t apologized.
If anything their derangement has only increased. The fact that they don’t expect any retaliation shows how separated from reality they are.
Did Obama keep people he thought were working against him? Do the pretentious men and ‘serious’ bimbos of NBC really believe that?
