“for those who think she was doing great and couldn’t do any better.”

That would be, like...NOBODY!

Somebody on the 2nd thread was mad and defending her.

I see on Twitchy that a CNN anal-ist is speculating from the writing style that Nielsen was the one who penned the “anonymous” anti-Trump editorial in the NYT’s a while back.

Seems possible

She was Kelly’s protege and the President let the General make his own decisions regarding DHS. Before Kelly was Chief of Staff, he headed up DHS so it makes sense he would recommend someone to take his place.

The President is now free from the Mueller blockade and we are seeing him shift priorities. It’s good to see the border become priority #1 while healthcare is for next year.

Kelly was gone in late December. It’s now early April and Nielsen is gone. The President has announced there will be a major crackdown on the border.

The real poll #’s are high for POTUS. He has nothing in his way in putting a major focus on the border.

And the Wall is going up with a huge approval backing by the American people.

I’m sure Trump will be guided down to the swamp swimming hole to pick out another Uniparty hack.

Re: “The other explanation would be that he has run the absolutely worst Presidential personnel management effort in history. A complete dunce about most of his top hires. It really is one or the other.”

You forgot the third and most obvious explanation....

Trump has never been sincere about enforcing immigration law.

Always puzzled me why he appointed her in the first place. I know he had few choices at the start of his Presidency with all of the 0samaYomama holdovers and loyalists, but his choice of her really flummoxed me knowing that she was on record a DACA sympathizer.

Nielsen was a protégé of that other skunk #nevertrump fifth columnist General John Kelly. Turncoat Kelly obstructed the President's agenda at every turn, and it was on his recommendation that Nielsen was put into her DHS position.

He has to get someone confirmed. Do any of you know how tough that is for Trump in DC?

He may have picks he likes but cannot get RINOs and RATs to confirm them.

Kobach would be one of the best permanent choices for DHS (should just dismantle DHS as it is a failed GWB experiment and as all things feral gubmint, has become too big to be effective) since the dude he’s chosen for interim will never make it. Kobach would be a pit bull. He should appoint Sheriff Joe as head of ICE. He’s got a coupla more good years to kick some A.

Apparently they can only protect other country’s borders.

"Besides her public support for DACA Amnesty, Nielsen also hired a Chief of Staff who was a former H-1B lobbyist.

Trump, apparently, had no problem with those decisions - until they became politically inconvenient."


She's been bad news from the beginning. But she's wasn't and isn't the only globalist in the admin. So, why is Trump allowing them in when he has to know they are enemies to the cause?

I loved her and wish her well - but the bottom line is the bottom line.

Get results, or we need to get someone who will.
