Acts of sabotage against the president are perilous to the American system of government. They're also self-serving.
The title of Bob Woodwards new book, Fear, contains a multitude of meanings. For one thing, it describes the attitude of many of President Trumps own aides toward his judgment.
Its not just that many sources were willing to tell Woodward damaging stories about Trump: The most stunning examples are those where top aides reportedly thwarted his will. Even more stunning is an anonymous op-ed published in The New York Times Wednesday afternoon written by a purported senior official in the Trump administration.
The writer says that senior Trump officials are working diligently from within to frustrate parts of his agenda and his worst inclinations. I would know. I am one of them. The official adds: We believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic.
The op-ed is so bizarre that it is tempting to dismiss it as fantasyakin to the obviously bogus Twitter accounts that flourished early in the administration claiming to be by saboteurs inside the White House. (While the Times has likely done its homework, expect the president to question the veracity of the source.) Yet what the anonymous official says lines up closely with the accounts in Woodwards book, in which officials steal documents, act on their own, and simply disregard orders from the president....

Each headline bashing Trump reinforces my support for him.
I know now how I will vote no matter what the NYTimes and
CNN report.
Pretty soon it will be time to go Luca Brasi on these seditionous lowlifes.
There is a coordinated front against the constitution being propelled by the deep state. All the releases of disinformation from questionable sources. A bogus collusion investigation, which is really a means of eliminating President Trumps associates. No investigation of obvious Democratic party collusion. Nor United kingdom’s attempt to derail the USAs election. To advance Socialist suppression in our country. Citizens we are watching a treasonous coup. Will American minute men stand for this? What action should we the People take?
Maybe this anonymous source can go back to Alicia Machado to hit on The President.
I for one wouldnt mind a few pics of her in the news rather than *sswipes like Adam Schiff and Rod Rosenstein.
;-)
Speaking of elbow grease, please careful not to give yourself carpal tunnel, or to go blind!
Good catch.
If the op-ed is authentic, the author is undermining one of three branches of our government. He or she must be found, along with their accomplices, and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Enough of this garbage!
I DID NOT VOTE FOR THESE EGOMANIACS.
I stole it off his desk, Cohn told an associate, according to Woodward. I wouldnt let him see it. He's never going to see that document. Got to protect the country.
Looks like we've found one member of the cabal... Gary Cohn... now to find the others...
I’m sorry for your loss.
Journalistic ethics = OXYMORON!
The anonymous critic’s statements line up with the anonymous official’s, because the author of both is Bob Woodward. Easy peasy.
Not certain why you promote a lie.
We might as well give up on elections, because they will just take out anyone that isn’t approved of by the deep state actors. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Well, then begins Civil War II. And it won’t last that long once the sanctuary cities are conquered.
Sounds like some Deep State official using State Dept. as a cover
This is probably what drove the anonymous “I work for Trump and want him to succeed but am doing what I can to screw him” article.....
“Woodward made up Deep Throat and it won him a Pulitzer.”
One thing I’d love to see before I go to Glory is to have the truth come out about Watergate, and what it really was about. To have Woodward and Bernstein be proven to be the charlatans they are would be sweeeet.
To have that happen would completely take the wind out of the sails of the Dems. They might STFU for maybe a year.
“Its a last-ditch effort to make the traitors feel good about themselves. It doesnt matter.”
And it’s a way to sow discord and distrust within Trump’s ranks. Just one more way to weaken MAGA — or attempt to.
“We’re Watching an Anti-Democratic Coup Unfold”
I wonder if the Observer General is enjoying the spectacle as much as we are.
Well no. Deep Throat was Mark Felt assistant director of the FBI who was disgruntled when he was not appointed director, by Nixon upon Hoo ers death.
