Though it is written with an attack Trump theme and probably contains false information, the article does show some important things that are happening within the Trump administration.
1. His advisors, especially McMaster, are working actively to undermine both Trump's foreign policy and the nation's security. It appears they are trying to persuade Trump to push for certification of the fraudulent Iran deal. They are not being honest about it. The article gives details about their plotting and conniving.
2. It is evident those within the Trump administration are leaking damaging attacks against Trump that probably are not true. The story that Trump "threw a fit" in a small private meeting was given to the media by attendees at that meeting. 3. The Washington establishment really likes the illegal, fraudulent "Iran Deal" the details of which have been hidden from the public.
That Iran has violated the provisions of the supposed "deal" does not seem to be a concern.
4.It appears that Trump is being sabotaged from within.
Mr. President, do not certify.
A plan might be to send the Iran deal to Congress to approve or disapprove. With the Senate’s “slow walking” everything he wants, it will never pass in time.
He did the same with the Dreamers and it’s at the bottom of the “to do” basket of work, never to see the light of day IMO.
FTA: Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and others
They want to kick the can down the road.... again.
I read this article earlier and was considering posting it for the same reasons you did. Yes, it seems his staff is trying to undermine him and is not being honest. They are scheming to find a way to keep the deal. This goes back to a point I make over and over and FR. It’s one made by Bannon and Gorka as they left. Trump has people on his staff who fundamentally don’t agree with what he ran on and who are advocating for a different agenda, thus leaving Trump to battle his own staff when they should be a team. Trump ran as anti-establishment, and Tillerson (recommended by Jeb!, Condi, and Bob Gates), McMaster (purged the NSC of Trump supporters), and Kelly (has restricted Trump’s news and access and overseen a loss of pro-Trump staff) are the establishment and would fit in in a Jeb! White House (so would Mattis if we’re being honest, although I like him). That’s why you have Corker attacking Trump over the rumors of Tillerson leaving and saying that these people are “containing” Trump and keeping him “middle of the road.” Corker chairs the Senate Foreign Relations committee. He advocates an establishment foreign policy, and Trump’s staff are his vehicle to get it, but Trump didn’t run as establishment, he didn’t win as establishment, so of course he doesn’t want to govern that way.
The worst part is his staff continues to leak as these articles always claim to have multiple sources, sometimes ones that are backed up by people like Mike Cernovich and Roger Stone. People in these meetings are leaking, and people leaking to establishment papers are doing it to hurt Trump. I think some want to portray him as crazy (see article title) to try to get the 25th Amendment and get Pence. With some staff not loyal to Trump, it is a concern - one raised by Bannon (per anonymous sources to Vanity Fair).
Gorka still maintains a staff cleaning before Christmas. Let’s hope.
“He was incensed by the arguments of Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and others that the landmark 2015 deal, while flawed, offered stability and other benefits.”
They said the same thing about the Munich Pact in 1938. How’d that ‘landmark deal’ work out?
McMasters is the ultimate insider. He knows how the deep state can destroy the president and the country. His book clearly shows he is just as disloyal to the president and worse still the country as those he condemned in it during the Vietnam war.
Kelly I can tolerate and Matthis has been a good choice so far. McMasters has to go.
What did he do, turn over the tables of the moneylenders and go after them with a whip?
We haven't had a man in the White House since Dwight Eisenhower. So these young people don't know what to do when confronted with one.
Not even AT the meeting, but FAMILIAR with it.
Lord. How do the members of the News Misleadia not slit their throats whenever they catch their reflection in a mirror.
That is the key point.
Obama-mess works to give money Iran, Iran gives money to North Korea.
People in Japan and South Korea are TERRIFIED of what the FAT BOY is up to.
