This is why Trump spent his entire career owning and managing companies that were organized as sole proprietorships, partnerships, or closed corporations with no outside board members. Making him answer to a corporate board would be like putting him in prison.
The man is a freaking genius flaws and all.
Excellent post.
Corrected quote.
[General Mattis is a dope; General Kelly is a dope; General McMaster is a dope; Secretary Tillerson is a dope; AG Sessions is a dope; and now John Bolton is a dope. Notice a pattern here folks? (& who is the next dope to fall? General Milley?) VP Pence, if he turns on him. Out of control. In executive business, this kind of fickle leader and incessant turnover would see the Board ridding itself of such an unstable CEO.]
At the same time, Trump’s problems with personnel are largely of his own creation. By brusquely treating men of substance like they’re extras on “The Apprentice” and tossing them out like used Kleenexes, he’s caused generally close-mouthed individuals like Bolton (who has kept his counsel through multiple administrations) to write tell-all books. It appears that Trump’s abrasiveness isn’t just put on for Twitter - it characterizes just about every aspect of his relationships with the people he personally appointed to their positions. It’s becoming obvious why Sessions never felt the urge to stand up for him - the petty, as well as serious, humiliations that Trump repeatedly visited upon these people never engendered a feeling of personal loyalty.
That’s why the only people remaining 100% loyal to him are his daughter and son-in-law. And that’s why he produced a get-out-jail-free card for drug felons in federal prisons - to throw them a bone.
Whatever you might say about Reagan, he never alienated his courtiers to this degree. But what’s the alternative? This isn’t a parliamentary system where you can have an intra-party revolt, do a vote of no confidence and call a general election. Trump is the president and the nominee for 2020. For the GOP, he’s the only game in town.
Perhaps. Never heard that theory before. Though nothing would surprise me anymore to be honest. 8>)
Dope? The president hates dope. Why does the US have such a dope problem?
Wrap up smear.
Crazy Nancy wanted everyone to know that she is very clever.

This is a wrap up smear deployed against President Trump.
Deep State deployed a wrap up smear against General Flynn.
Sigh, another day, and the useful idiot zombies will be enraged yet again
He, too, will fall.
Just watch.
This makes almost as little sense as Trump hiring Bolton in the first place. Trump destroyed the front-runners in the Republican field in the 2016 primaries for the simple reason that he was a breath of fresh air compared to the globalist morons who had run this country -- and the GOP -- into the ground over the last 25 years. It made no sense to hire some jackass like Bolton who would have been a prominent player in a Jeb Bush administration.
My contempt for Bolton even gives him a place of "honor" at the top of my profile page ... because I posted this when his name first came up as a potential NSA nominee all the way back in 2017:
I voted for Donald Trump because I was tired of Ivy League globalist pr!cks running this nations foreign policy. Anyone who still thinks the invasion of Iraq was a good idea shouldnt even be allowed to clean the toilets in the White House.
There is a special place in hell for anyone who quotes AllahPundit. The guy is a never Trumper..
In his defense , the world of high-dollar business is vastly more self-correcting than the insular world of DC, where ones misdeeds are blamed on political opponents, excused or covered up by ones allies in the Uniparty, and ultimately financed by the taxpayers. In Trumps former milieu, bums could be fired without having to change Federal legislation, as he had to do with deadwood at the VA; and buildings have to pass inspections and remain standing.
Both he and Ivanka, who was the executive developer for the Trump International Hotel and many other Trump properties, have expressed astonishment at the depth of viciousness in the DC political realm. They thought New York Citys dirty Democrat politics would have prepared them.
Even so, who else but Trump, among the 16 GOP candidates who ran last time, could even have stood up as much as he has done, attempting to right the sinking ship?
You’re right. One of the main reasons I decided to vote for Donald Trump was that he wasn’t afraid to fight back...and he is a funny guy. If you asked me 6 years ago if I would vote for Trump, I’d have said no, but that was before he threw his hat into the ring, and the more I listened to him, the more I connected with him. Like Rush Limbaugh, he agreed with what I was thinking, and he wasn’t afraid to say it.
Too bad, that’s a great quote. ;-D
Obama, speaking of McCain supporters in 2008 at one of his Rallies, they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.
