TRUMP DEMANDS NYT GIVE UP ANONYMOUS OFFICIAL FOR ‘NATIONAL SECURITY’ REASONS
Daily Caller ^ | 8/5/2018 | Saagar Enjeti

Posted on 09/05/2018 5:06:48 PM PDT by Eddie01

President Donald Trump demanded that that the New York Times hand over the anonymous official who disparaged the president in a recent op-ed for national security reasons, in a Wednesday tweet.

Does the so-called “Senior Administration Official” really exist, or is it just the Failing New York Times with another phony source? If the GUTLESS anonymous person does indeed exist, the Times must, for National Security purposes, turn him/her over to government at once!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 5, 2018

“It may be cold comfort in this chaotic era, but Americans should know that there are adults in the room. We fully recognize what is happening. And we are trying to do what’s right even when Donald Trump won’t,” the anonymous official said.

Trump previously called the official “gutless” and White House press secretary Sarah Sanders released a scathing statement saying “nearly 62 million people voted for President Donald J. Trump in 2016, earning him 306 Electoral College votes — versus 232 for his opponent. None of them voted for a gutless, anonymous source to the failing New York Times.”

The press secretary ended her statement calling for resignation, saying, “The individual behind this piece has chosen to deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States. He is not putting country first, but putting himself and his ego ahead of the will of the American people. This coward should do the right thing and resign.”

Trump should write his own op-ed telling ‘anonymous’ they are fired effectively immediately.

If the person doesn’t come forward at once they will be deemed to having committed treasonous acts and dealt with as a traitor to the American people.

The President should order US Marshalls collect the NY Times editorial board and question them for as long as it takes to get the person’s name.

“The use of the word “lodestar” is suspicious. “

No it isn’t, it’s obvious! Trying to misdirect toward Pence.

This total FAKE NEWS.

MANUFACTURED news that happens to be FAKE.

Why would anyone believe this crap?

The New York Times simply wants to help book sales.
They are losing and Trump is winning the good fight.

Why isn’t Q outing the traitor? I thought he knew everything.

Better yet, why didn’t Q ‘drop’ a hint as to the traitor’s identity months ago?

Kellyanne and her hubby...exactly my first thoughts as well...being the source for the NYT and the Woodward garbage.

Well, she’s going to be on Laura Ingraham’s show any minute now...

I saw the first part of her interview with LI. Not impressed. Has no interest in finding out who it is. Says it is not relevant. It may not be her but could be her husband telling BW and the NYT that he is speaking for KC when it is really his version.

They faked this to try and paint a picture of discord and incompetence. Any other republican would just ignore it and move on, this one will not. They have now opened themselves up to a National Security DOJ investigation.

Lindsay Graham was just on Laura’s show and said Trump should just ignore it.
Huh? Someone (or more than one someone) actively working for the President and intentionally subverting his wishes.... and we should IGNORE it?

That frigging person should be identified and flayed alive on live TV!

Libs are worried.

HAAAAAA

NYT stepped in it. The most stable genius ever will not let this go.

Sorry Kellyanne and Lindsey, whoever you are trying to protect is going to get outed. Probably within 72 hours.

Person who is paid by the Executive Branch of the Federal Gov’t who proactively approached the NYT to publish their assertive actions of attempting to take down the POTUS via covert cover is going to come out.

If the person had a real claim, they would have taken the whistle blower route. THEY DID NOT. They took the NYT so call anonymous route. LOL

Whoever the so called Trump resister is that is collecting a Federal Government paycheck, they need to settle themselves and realize they have been engaged in sedition.

Kellyanne and Linday’s attempt to talk Trump into forgetting this, only puts a target on their back, that they are part of the resistance. Especially Kellyanne.

Yo, Kellyanne, You protest too much. Your husband hates POTUS. Hmmm.
