During a portion of an interview set to air on Sunday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Sunday Morning Futures” that was aired on Friday’s broadcast of FBN’s “Mornings with Maria,” 2024 presidential candidate former President Donald Trump stated that “it probably was” a mistake for him to nominate Christopher Wray to be FBI Director during his term and Wray “was recommended very strongly” by 2024 GOP rival former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

Host Maria Bartiromo introduced the clip of the interview by stating, “President Trump reacting to this week’s Judiciary Committee hearing with FBI Director Christopher Wray. I spoke with the 45th President…we started our conversation with a look at the upcoming debate and whether he will participate, and I got his reaction to the FBI Director defending [against] the charges of weaponization and [politicization] at the FBI.”

😬 oops

[adorno]

Having Christie anywhere near Trump, was a mistake.

[Trumpisourlastchance]

Probably? Virtually everyone appointed of consequence was a mistake.

[aynrandfreak]

Christie is hardly trying to get the nomination. He’s just there to go after Trump for the Establishment. Why was he on Trump’s debate prep team in 2020?

[Responsibility2nd]

There ya go. Blame others for your mistakes.

Nothing. Nothing I’ve seen from Trump so far in his quest to be reelected tells me he has learned a damn thing from the many MANY personnel mistakes he made in his first term.

And yes. I know. Those mistakes weren’t his fault. The Deep State made him do it. (sarc)

[TexasGator]

Several candidates have promised to fire Wray on Day One.

Trump?

[cowboyusa]

Probably!!??

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Quote of the Week!!!

Nominating Wray ‘Probably Was’ a Mistake, Christie Recommended Him.

‘Wray a mistake, maybe, but it’s Christie’s fault.’ Wow, that buck didn’t stop on Trump’s desk. Why can’t Trump accept fault for his actions?

[avital2]

she teased she asked him about vp possibilities...

[Drew68]

“Wasn’t my fault! The donut guy made me do it!”

[cowboyusa]

Tucker needs to ask him the most important question: “ What will you do differently?”

[af_vet_1981]

Trump always blames someone else for his own mistakes.

[Reverend Wright]

Trump has to take the hit for bad White House appointments

McMaster, Bolton, Scaramucci etc.

But McCain said he would only vote for Wray, and no-one else.

The Senate confirmed appointees were a real problem.

McConnell deliberately kept the Senate in session so Trump could not make recess appointments

[cowboyusa]

This Is Trump 1.0 and we need 2.0.

[MountainWalker]

Thank goodness some patriot handed him a federalist society list of judges in 2016 or he would have nominated 3 Souters to the Supreme Court with his atrocious track record of appointments.

[Reno89519]

And Trump kept circling back to support McConnell.

[Responsibility2nd]

Hmmm. This thread gives me an idea. Trump should use this song from The Brothers Osborne as his campaign song...

 

Blame the whiskey on the beer
Blame the beer on the whiskey
Blame the mornin' on the night
For whose lyin' here with me
Blame the bar for the band
Blame the band for the song
Blame the song for the party that went all night long

But it ain't my fault
No it ain't my fault
Mighta had a little fun
Lotta wrong I'd done
But it ain't my fault

Blame the heart for the hurtin'
Blame the hurtin' on the heart
Blame the dark on the devil
Blame the devil on the dark
Blame the ex for the drinkin'
Blame the drinkin' for the ex
Blame the two for one tequila's for whatever happens next

But it ain't my fault
No it ain't my fault
Mighta had a little fun
Lotta wrong I'd done
But it ain't my fault

I got my hands up
I need an alibi
Find me a witness who can testify
You made a mistake
You got the wrong guy
I'm only guilty of a damn good time
No it ain't my fault

Blame my raisin' on my name
Blame my name on my raisin'
Blame my lack of knowing better on public education
Blame smoke on the fire
Blame fire on the smoke
Blame the fight on the bouncer that couldn't take a joke
But it ain't my fault

I got my hands up
I need an alibi
Find me a witness who can testify
You made a mistake
You got the wrong guy
I'm only guilty of a damn good time

No it ain't my fault
No it ain't my fault
No it ain't my fault

[Reno89519]

Yes, whoever successfully got that list into Trump’s hand and publicly accepted and endorsed by him deserves an incredibly big THANK YOU.

[Zathras]

Trump is slowly learning.
The GOP is not his friend.
