Rosenstein Suggested He Secretly Record Trump and Discussed 25th Amendment
NYT ^

Posted on 09/21/2018 11:01:09 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

The deputy attorney general, Rod J. Rosenstein, suggested last year that he secretly record President Trump in the White House to expose the chaos consuming the administration, and he discussed recruiting cabinet members to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Mr. Trump from office for being unfit.

Mr. Rosenstein made these suggestions in the spring of 2017 when Mr. Trump’s firing of James B. Comey as F.B.I. director plunged the White House into turmoil. Over the ensuing days, the president divulged classified intelligence to Russians in the Oval Office, and revelations emerged that Mr. Trump had asked Mr. Comey to pledge loyalty and end an investigation into a senior aide.

Elitists think that anyone who does not think like them are mentally incapacitated.

This is among the really, really dumb articles ever written by the really, really dumb NY Times.

They want their readers to believe that Rosenstein is surprised his letter recommending Comey’s firing was used in the firing of Comey.

Rosenstein might be a dirtbag, but he isn’t stupid.

Neither are we.

Is the NYT trying to get Trump to fire him? What else would be the motive here? Because their motive is NEVER to report the truth.

Of course. Then why didnt the NYT do a leak story about Sessions? It’s a headfake to make Trump get rid of Rodentstein. Maybe Trump did follow Don Corleone’s edict of “keep your friends close and your enemies closer”..

Exactly, this is an attempt to get Trump to fire Rosenstein just before the election.

Bingo! Somebody want Trump to fire him. Probably on behalf of Mueller to continue the obstruction of justice play

In the middle of the same article:

Mr. Rosenstein disputed this account. “The New York Times’s story is inaccurate and factually incorrect,” he said in a statement. “I will not further comment on a story based on anonymous sources who are obviously biased against the department and are advancing their own personal agenda. But let me be clear about this: Based on my personal dealings with the president, there is no basis to invoke the 25th Amendment.”

A Justice Department spokeswoman also provided a statement from a person who was present when Mr. Rosenstein proposed wearing a wire. The person, who would not be named, acknowledged the remark but said Mr. Rosenstein made it sarcastically.

The NYTimes obviously hopes to build chaos on chaos to utterly destroy any chance Republicans might hold the Senate and House. They obviously have held this article back for quite some time. There is just one problem, like the bitch who is after Kavenaugh’s scalp, the NYTimes is not believable.

Whether it’s true or not, he should be fired anyway for hiring Mueller, and this is a perfect excuse to get rid of him and replace him with someone who will end this fake investigation.
