Acts of sabotage against the president are perilous to the American system of government. They're also self-serving.
The title of Bob Woodward’s new book, Fear, contains a multitude of meanings. For one thing, it describes the attitude of many of President Trump’s own aides toward his judgment.
It’s 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 fantasy—akin 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 Woodward’s book, in which officials steal documents, act on their own, and simply disregard orders from the president....

Yeah right, that won’t happen.
You can get all manner of “stories” whenever you stoop so low as to use “anonymous sources” as news. That’s NOT journalism. It’s a slanderous hit piece and filthy politics from the left... As usual.
Very true; you see the progression in this: started Election Night with Podesta stating there would be no concession; after concession, HRC meets with staff and they plot dissemination of the nonsensical Russian collusion story; then move to convince Presidential Electors to change their votes; when that failed, do the phony interview of Gen. Flynn and get a Special Prosecutor appointed to investigate Russia by the idiot Sessions; when there is no finding of collusion, go to claims of payments to some porn star that were perfectly legal; when that is a dud, claim that he is crazy and that high-level people (prob. some Assistant Secretary of Defense if he exists in his OWN Administration think he is crazy and must be removed under the 25th Amendment. These people are devils, they are in league with evil and they are trying to reverse the 2016 election with the help of their handmaidens in the media.
Maybe Woodward is trying to synthesize another endorsement from beyond the grave. As FDR said, “The only thing we have to FEAR is FEAR ITSELF!”
yep. keep throwing spaghetti to the wall.
I pray for Trump and I trust God.
Evil will lose in the end. Believe me.
It’s very disturbing to see it happening in real time in one’s own country. The left are completely-brainwashed by the liberal media (and people like Obama).
The job of advisors is to advise the President. Not whine about it when he makes his own decisions. The job of aides is to carry out the wishes of the President.
So which is it? Is it an advisor whining or an aide back biting?
Or is it just so much B.S.?
I think that Trump knows he has the support of millions of people like you and me.
I have his back, but more importantly I have his front! They’ll have to go through me to get to him.
This ole Marine is still one tough bird......ANTIFA????? It’s the violent arm of the Socialist left. (the new Democrat Party.) They are all weenies. Our deep thinkers??? They beat the left hands down......There is NO area of government where the left has succeeded in serving the people of the nation. None!
LIberals on twitter are taking it quite seriously.
This whole thing looks carefully orchestrated...
Can’t wait for Trump to return fire with some of those sealed indictments and declassifying stuff.
“Yeah right, that won’t happen.’
According to the gospel of 38special, right?
for many months, the entire narrative should have been Clinton/DNC/FusionGPS/DOJ/DBI/CIA/Obama collusion to stop Donald Trump becoming president, followed by an ongoing attempted coup ever since he became President.
if FakeNewsMSM (with the exception of Hannity primarily) are not covering the above exclusively, then they are continuing to collude with the entities listed.
Congress/Senate should be investigating NOTHING but the above collusion.
yep
Well what the f*k is he waiting for. For as smart as we all seem to think Trump is, WHY isnt anything being demanded released and in redacted by him? Why is Sessions and Rosenstein still there. ???
I’m thinking they have him in a box, and he doesn’t know who to trust. A modern day Coup, and his own party is a big part of it!
I’m a lifelong republican, yet I’ve come to dispise them as much as libs(Dems)!!! The stupid party, the eternal cuck minority!! F’n idiots, almost to a man/woman
THIS!!!
Yea sure.
Unredacted
ell what the is he waiting for?
He has to get some honest judges in office. He has to educate the public through things like Q so when the arrests start rioting and revolt will not happen. There are already 10,000 arrests of sex offenders. MS 13 gangs have been removed. Start at the bottom and move up.
“Yea sure.”
Yeah sure, what? Spit it out, boy.
