top national security officials in the Trump administration offered the same advice publicly and privately, often clashing with Trump’s Twitter stream

This is the Deep State in action, ignoring the elected executive of the people to carry out its own agenda. This is the biggest threat to our freedom and democracy - not Russian meddling, but meddling by un-elected American bureaucrats who have decided that the American people voted in the wrong person and therefore are best ignored.

This is the swamp that must be drained.

This is WAPO trying to make it seem that the whole government is against Trump when in reality it’s a couple of losers.

“This is WAPO trying to make it seem that the whole government is against Trump when in reality it’s a couple of losers.”

No, it’s pretty much the entire ‘administrative’ state. Comprised of rabid lefty apparatchiks who voted overwhelming for hillary rotten clinton.

The corrupt state, both parties, courts and fakestream media do not recognize the legitimacy of DJT as President of the United States. They are in open rebellion...#resist, #stall & #sabotage mode.

Trump is one man against a 4 trillion dollar corrupt stasi state. He’s President in name only. Let that sink in.

It’s not dark yet but it’s getting there...

Pseudo conservatives like McConnell hide behind the Democrats skirts when it comes to dividing the money.

Bingo, you got it that is exactly what it is—an oligarchy. The oligarchy owns the politicians, most of the businesses and the media....just like Argentina.

Haha! Telling people to ignore what Trump says it like telling someone “don’t look - you don’ t want to see.” Which of course just makes people even more curious. The irony is the WaPo writing an entire story drawing attention to Trump, based on telling people to pay no attention to Trump.

I wonder why no other president until Trump ever took this approach.

We’ve seen the networks deny the President time. ...and they now counter a broadcast with silliness afterward s.

The tax bill expires, so that it meets budget criteria that allow a straight-up vote to pass it. Otherwise it’d allow the dems to block it.

I think you’re stretching it. There is only one department, one agency, and one bureau that have rotting heads at the top. They are DOJ, CIA, and FBI.

And many of the rotten characters have been fired, resigned, or are crawling to retirement.

WAPO is a CIA organ c/o Butthead Bezos. DOJ and FBI will come to heel by the end of this year or sooner.

The CIA itself is in the service of people in a global network ‘globalists’ and if they can’t take out Trump in some fashion, then in time their betraying membership will be scattered. They are up against NSA and the US Military.

When you pick the establishment, you get the establishment.

Only the Establishment has people qualified and willing to take these positions. People outside the establishment don't even recognize or acknowledge the importance of these positions, let alone possess the qualifications or the urge or the desire to seek them. Instead, they proudly proclaim their ignorance of international norms and protocols and even nation states. Trying to look outside the Establishment to fill these positions is like trying to find a "Religion Editor" among atheists...

Anyone that uses the term ‘dude’ in a serious discussion is not to be taken seriously.

Go away and do not post to me again.
