jeez. I don’t see him as willing to risk his reputation at this age for cash. If even some of it is true, it isn’t good.

Bob Woodward: Trump's aides stole his papers 'to protect the country'

He says he has tapes. Why do people always threaten tapes? Play the damn tapes.
This is priceless stuff......
Chief of staff John Kelly describes Trump as an "idiot" and "unhinged," Woodward reports. Defense Secretary James Mattis describes Trump as having the understanding of "a fifth or sixth grader." And Trump's former personal lawyer John Dowd describes the President as "a ******* liar," telling Trump he would end up in an "orange jump suit" if he testified to special counsel Robert Mueller.
"He's an idiot. It's pointless to try to convince him of anything. He's gone off the rails. We're in crazytown," Kelly is quoted as saying at a staff meeting in his office. "I don't even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I've ever had."

Well Trump sat for a few interviews with him during the 16 race and has generally had good things to say about him, but we know how Trump hates the truth. He has got to be miserable, he never thought he would win and was in no way ready for the scrutiny he would receive. Ya get away with a lot more being a self centered jerk New York real estate con man than ya do as the leader of the free world.
I think it’s all probably true. I’m curious if there will be adequate context or if it’s just shocking comments.
I don't feel a bit sorry for any of them. They should have been intelligent enough to know, before they took the job, they would be working for a f'ucking idiot. He (trump) dispelled any myths during the campaign.
Is he that, or is he an evil genius that conspired with Russia to steal the election. You must chose.
And yet they continue to serve their country by nutting that lunatic. We owe these people dearly.
I don't think the term genius has ever been associated with trump, other than his rubes.
He had to be, in order to pull it off and not be caught at this point, considering the surveillance technology and investigative firepower he's been able to avoid so far.
Or he could be a gullible buffoon. I don't think He's ever been considered the mastermind of any collusion.
I think he may be a genius regarding his ability to accumulate wealth. But that is a very unique skill set but I think he thinks his genius applies to everything. It clearly doesn't. In fact, he kinda sucks at it and relies heavily on others to fix his messes.
I think if everyone is honest with themselves, we would already know the context.....Trump is neither well educated or politically savvy; therefore he doesn't know what to do or how to do it. Just like when he asked the question shortly after taking office as to why we don't use our nuclear weapons.
after reading the excerpts of this book, my biggest fear is that Trump cleans house and brings in more morons like Bannon and Miller
Well why are the libtards skewering these good men and women? They try and shame them for working with him in the WH...they ridicule them in the press and they stalk them in their private lives. Yet I don't hear a peep from anyone defending their possible reason for staying in the WH and that is to keep the ship running on a good course.
LOL good luck with that...is that the end game here for the libs - get him out of office? Can't beat him in an election so attack from every possible angle to get him to quit or have his cabinet push him out? Is that the precedent they want to set?
You asked a question. Is stealing orders off the President's desk the precedent we want set? That seems more dangerous, but I'm sure you don't care either way.
If Trump can't take the heat he should just resign. He's incompetent and unfit for office. Our nation is at great risk as long as he's in office.
Other than Sarah Sanders and Miller I haven't criticized any of the current staff. Really only bannon in the past.
White House Chief of Staff John Kelly is reported to have frequently lost his temper, and described Trump as “an idiot.”
“It’s pointless to try to convince him of anything. He’s gone off the rails. We’re in Crazytown,” Kelly said, according to Woodward. “I don’t even know why any of us are here. This is the worst job I’ve ever had.”
On Tuesday, Kelly said that the account was false.
“The idea I ever called the President an idiot is not true," he said in a statement. "As I stated back in May and still firmly stand behind: 'I spend more time with the President than anyone else, and we have an incredibly candid and strong relationship. He always knows where I stand, and he and I both know this story is total BS. I'm committed to the President, his agenda, and our country. This is another pathetic attempt to smear people close to President Trump and distract from the administration’s many successes."

But it the info was given to us by double-secret-ultra-deep-background...so it has to be true
