Scoop - Reince Priebus is leaning on WaPo and Politico to hit Scaramucci hard.

Before I read your reply, I was thinking, "When is Pres. Trump going to get rid of Priebus?!"

Enough already! Wasn't it someone that Priebus brought into the WH that was terminated for leaking confidential, if not classified, information?

He’s 100% loyal to DJT.
He thinks like DJT.
He’s rich like DJT.
He’s actually an excellent defender of DJT, if you’ve ever seen him interviewed.
He’s the one who made CNN apologize for defamation.

Scarmucci is soft spoken, but very commanding of attention.

Yep, that little blond waif - rumored to be his ‘close’ friend - and no repercussions ever from that.

Cernovic certainly is full of himself. But he has a pretty good record with real sources.

Yeah, though she got shipped over to a pro-Trump PAC, IIRC.

Priebus however hired the head of personnel/hiring, who reportedly for months has made sure no actual Trump loyalist patriots get positions, only uniparty traitors—and has slow-walked any hiring at all.

People just need to stop looking at this Presidency as if it should operate according to the standards of the last 50 yrs.....it’s not going to....it can’t.... or what we hired Trump to do will not happen. Just like in his campaign Trump did nothing according to the standards....so it will be in Washington now.

Also keep in mind that he and his staff, (I speak of those he appointed already in DC like Sessions),are going to ‘go/move’ on that which they have knowledge of the corruption practices within which can make the greatest difference the fastest in clearing out the corruption and releasing ‘revenue sources’..... Sessions going at the drug traffic and their revenue is perfectly understandable....’a bird in hand’ ....and let the courts figure it out after the fact if or not he can do that. Meanwhile the bad guys are going down......

Law and Order cannot be attained without a shoot-’out’ of one form or another and confiscating the ‘evidence’ of these bad guys and killers who rob our youth of their brains and the citizens of peaceful streets and homes.......

Grab the revenues and use them....and like I said let the courts figure out who gets what after the fact....meanwhile get that revenue moving where it can do some good.

I used to read him a lot. And then he went weird. He’s so full of himself that he gets it wrong enough times that life is too short to try to separate wheat from chaff.

I agree: “Scaramucci is a good pick. He hit back at CNN and 3 execs lost their jobs with Mueller expanding the scope of the investigation, the stakes are high. Trump needs street fighters to take on those who are trying to bring him down.”
I always thought President Trump brought on board, Spicer and Preibus to appease the Republicans. Mainly the RINOS. Scaramucci is loyal.

The word “Conservative” has no meaning any more.

Bill Kristol is a “conservative” and apparently you accept that label. So it means less than nothing.

We (the USA) has 5% of the world's population but 50% of the world's guns. Enough is enough. It is just common sense it apply more controls— Anthony Scaramucci (@Scaramucci) August 6, 2012

Anyone who thinks their phony notion of 'common sense' is more important than the 2nd Amendment has no place in the White House, whatever the role.

You apparently have the attention span and comprehension of small child. Because Sessions, after being in the DOJ for a few months, with a crap FBI head, hasn’t arrested a whole bunch of gov wrong doers, you think he’s feeble.

Way, way beyond silly.

I hope this doesn’t mean there’s going to be a press suck-up doing the daily briefings.

So far Sessions has missed the boat on what needs to be done to combat drug addiction and deaths in the USA.


By going after gangs and illegals he’s not going after opiod problems? Wtf?

Blasting Sessions was really stupid

True, but we kinda knew he'd do things like that when we hired him.

He can be crude, unpolished, and tactless, but damn if he isn't the right man for the job in such a time as this.
