“I am part of the Resistance in the Trump Administration” - Stunning Article in NYT

I think I agree with this. The author spoke about agreeing with the tax cuts and deregulation, in what appears to be an effort to prevent people from calling him a never trumper. But it has the effect for me of making him sound like a selfish ■■■■■■■■

You are talking about how dangerous the potus is but you are sticking around because you like the tax cuts…is kind of the vibe I get.

That or you lack the courage to do the real right thing and invoke the 25th or publicly share your concerns.

I agree with the comments on the 25th.

As for the rest, I don’t disagree either. However, it appears they are not a lone voice here by any means.

Ah you were told. No sorry, there are varying opinions on what and who the “deep state” are, and that we now have a confession as to the existence of a republican deep state does not preclude former Obama appointee’s or non-political appointee’s being involved or running a parallel effort.

Um…yeah…I did.

*Duffman is not a lib.
*This is still some of your worst work yet.

Would you like to try again?

I just want people to remember, that while you may applaud the “grown-ups” keeping Trump in check, that this precedent, if allowed to go unchecked, may some day be applied to a President who isn’t an incompetent jack ass, but is not approved of by the elected members of his party.

I think the left would feel a but different about it if it was say Sanders who had won and it were elected and appointed democrats attempting to usurp his executive authority to accomplish what they elected him to do. It seems to me, this is coming perilously close to the two parties who hold a virtual monopoly on our elections, placing themselves above the voters. And that should not be allowed to stand.

Trump needs to forget that article was ever written and continue the job…while at the same time having someone carry on an investigation. He himself needs to forget about it. If he gets mired down in Woodward stuff and the letter stuff and whatever the Wahington Post manages to come up with, he is through.
The best defense from being accused of being a loon is to not act like a loon.

There aren’t a lot of words more misused than precedent in the last few years.

He does more than looks like a loon.

Which President have you been watching the past couple of years?

funny…

I completely understand your perspective. I don’t even disagree with it either. But these are not normal times, and Trump is not a normal President, let alone human being. I struggle to envision the Democrats ever electing someone so completely unfit and dangerously incurious, petulant, juvenile, and a whole host of other horrendous traits that pose a real and present danger to the nation. I would have said the exact same about the GOP as well, if not for witnessing what they did with Trump. I also would like to believe that the GOP will not repeat this performance, once we exit into a post-Trump world.

Perhaps. However, he is a loon, and he will not change. He will continue to act like exactly what he is. A dangerous and petulant disaster for this nation that needs unprecedented checks on his amoral behavior.

The GOP didn’t do it, republican, independent and even some democratic voters did. I am at a loss to explain their continued support of Trump. He should have been ridden out of town on a rail long ago.

I think it’s going to be a relatively unknown person who wrote this. Not a big juicy name like Pence or a cabinet official.

The GOP fully endorsed this clown, own him.

All appointed by trump, co-signed by the GOP.
Every mistake, mistep, fumble, bloop, blunder, lie, investigation, conspiracy, indictment, guilty plea, guilty verdict was deflected to the Dems having formed a deep state to make the trump admin look bad.
Do I need to post videos of this?

It’s the party of personal responsibility after all.

The won’t because they don’t want to know the truth.

I equate this to a person who doesn’t want to go to the doctor because they’re afraid of receiving bad news so they avoid at all cost until they drop dead…
