Anonymous op-ed writer claims senior Trump officials considered resigning in 'midnight self-massacre:' book
The writer of an anonymous New York Times op-ed last year is claiming in a new book that senior administration officials thought about quitting as a large group in a midnight self-massacre, but decided not to out of fear of destabilizing the government, The Washington Post reported.
The Post obtained a copy of the book A Warning by the writer who is described as a senior official in the Trump administration.
The person who wrote the book last year anonymously wrote an op-ed in The New York Times, claiming then that there were efforts from staff to "thwart" President Trump's worst instincts.
In the new book, the author pushed back on their former sentiments, writing I was wrong about the quiet resistance inside the Trump administration. Unelected bureaucrats and cabinet appointees were never going to steer Donald Trump the right direction in the long run, or refine his malignant management style. He is who he is, according to the Post.
The official also reportedly wrote that officials wake up in a full-blown panic due to Trump's tweets.
Its like showing up at the nursing home at daybreak to find your elderly uncle running pantsless across the courtyard and cursing loudly about the cafeteria food, as worried attendants tried to catch him, the author writes.

Here is the libelous creative-writing narrative we can expect:
Its like showing up at the nursing home at daybreak to find your elderly uncle running pantsless (sic) across the courtyard and cursing loudly about the cafeteria food, as worried attendants tried to catch him, the author writes.
“....The Washington Post reported....”

Gee for a minute I thought this book was about Hillary ?
Whaaaaa Haaaaa Haaaa!!!!!
The Hill Of Crap
The NYT is the most transparent media organization out there.
You can see right through them.
quitting as a large group in a midnight self-massacre,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Best service you could do for the country is to get out if you do not believe in the policies, policies I voted for and approve of tremendously.
No question that his style is unorthodox and his experience is running his show the way he wants and that he realized at the beginning that he was surrounded by enemies who were trying to overturn the election by any means possible. So, despite his style, and despite the unbelievable headwinds, I think he’s doing a dang good job.
If the bastards weren’t trying to overthrow an election to cover up their own corruption then POTUS might be a little more relaxed.
This is Deep State psy-ops trying to make Trump paranoid about his advisers.
This Mr. Anonymous guy really gets around.
Deep State sources say...
The gall of the public, to elect a president who aims to destabilize the government!
Why, rather than do the honorable thing and resign, we will sabotage the presidency from within.
And this is why we remain anonymous, so we can wreak havoc and get the spoils of our perfidy.
If it was up to me, I’d line these traitors to the constitution up and exile them to Antarctica with a wardrobe of speedos.
Funny. I’ve seen things like that occurring in nursing homes.
Lots of cursing and berating of staff.
Dementia is horrid. Many many times, the staff has the patience of saints.
Too cowardly to even do that. Don’t want to give up their government benefits.
“This is Deep State psy-ops trying to make Trump paranoid about his advisers.”
Exactly. And Pence.
Look at the playbook for how the agencies overthrew Mossadegh and put the Shah back in power — rumors, fake news, hired demonstrators — it’s all by the book.
What is to stop them from resigning? Wouldn’t that be for the good of the nation?
Too cowardly to even do that. Don’t want to give up their government benefits.
LOL. “Senior officials” — like Sally Yates? Sorry, doesn’t count when they’re just Obama commie holdovers.
Even if true ( hich it’s not) they didnt have the balls to do it.
And DJT is still President, and suffers no such deficit.
Anonymous op-ed writer of an Anonymous book. Yep, sounds believable to me.
