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.”

Agree. If it wasn't produced in-house with management's knowledge someone threw it over the transom and NYT thought it was a damned good idea.

Recall the mysterious tax file that turned out to be fake

This is a fabrication designed to divide from within.

Trump has made peace with other primary opponents, including Cruz. Personally, I would slot in Palin.

Boom! Perhaps the NYT thinks they can goad Trump into firing Sessions?
Lot’s of speculation going on, this is fun.
Kind of....

Yes, I remember that well. All the rinos and neverTrumpers coming out of the woodwork to ask Trump to step down from being the GOP nominee.

They admit they know who wrote the article which breaks security protocols so they are complicit in the crime of treason or sedition.

I don’t think they have a right to hold the info of who the leaker/traitor is because of laws against what the author did.

We gots ourselves a real crime against America here.

Because of that Sessions should demand the NYT give up the seditious insubordinate traitor or be compliant in the crimes and arrested themselves (The whole NYT top executives)

LG has turned. That’s why he was asking about military courts. And why Huma put something in his pocket at no-name’s funeral.

There was something about her right from the beginning I didn’t fully trust. Don’t know why. She seemed earnest enough and I knew nothing about her background such as running anti Trump ads in beginning like someone mentioned.

I wonder if Huma ran to LG to quickly ask if she had a deal to be spared the same justice that fell McTraitor?

At this point, arrest Sessions first, and we’ll sort it out when we have a new Attorney General.

Arrest him for what? Seriously, when did Free Republic become overrun with Stalinists?

Would be delicious if the whole thing turns out to be just more FakeNews

Only one way to find out - identify the writer.

Yep, Pence never came clean after that Bush family Billy Bush tape sabotage weekend.

The hiding in-plain-sight truth is Pence could be President if this Rat/NeverTrumps conspiracy against POTUS gets beyond the “obfuscation” and bluff stage.

And I do believe the MSM NYT Rats are actively conspiring with BushRINONeverTrumps.
