“Trump’s... handlers”
Trump won the election by fighting the whole world and all of a sudden he has handlers?
You haven’t noticed?
Kelly this week forced Trump’s personal bodyguard and body man of the last several decades out by requiring Keith Shiller provide a written report on what was discussed in every conversation he has with Trump—and he threatened to quit if Shiller didn’t go along with it. Instead, Shiller quit.
Trump has indeed gone along with the noose being tightened around him by Kelly. But you don’t think a 70yo longtime playboy who brought his real estate empire back from the brink and has an extended family involved in international business has some dirt that could be used against him—whether real or manufactured?
FWIW two people he still occasionally talks to outside the admin have confirmed from multiple separate sources that he has taken to being drowsy and slurred in his speech by the early evenings, when just months ago he was up late and lucid, calling friends and informal advisers late into the evenings and then again in the early morning.
