A message from the “resistance” in the WH

[JoshuaIsLord]

Perhaps the problem is that Trump chose Republicans to serve him.

That one slays me to my core.

 

[dvdjs]

Okay - I read it - the presentations and tone of this essay is that of a Democrat Resistor - the Deep State

The op-ed makes indicates that the writer is not Deep State or Democrat, but a senior administrative official.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

How is it a partisan attack when the person said they agree with most of his policies? This is a right winger who is making sure the agenda goes through without Trump doing anything crazy.

I think the Republican Cabinet is trying to keep the Rep Party looking half good instead of HALF BAD.

I do not believe anything a cowardly, anonymous detractor claims.

 

[grotto]

Please do not use an insulting label of Vice President Pence who is a very good man and admired by the majority of Americans.

I do not believe anything a cowardly, anonymous detractor claims.

That is your choice, and those are your labels.
But the truth is not determined by your choice and your labels.

Excuse me, you do not know who this is. It could be a low level administrative employee. Or, it could be a “senior government official” that has lost some sense of value for his/her opinions and power. It is not someone who is solid that is for sure.

And you don’t know who it is either and you are speculating just as mch.

What we do know is that they feel they are doing the right thing.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

Surely Americans haven’t lost all their critical thinking skills?

Oh, I would not be so sure about that. Some White guy burnt his Nike shoes while still wearing them. I would bet the farm that he is one of Trump’s core members.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

I daresay there are plenty who support Trump do so through the lens of critical thinking.

Are these plenty more than those that don’t look through the lens of critical thinking?

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

Manifestly however, he has been a train wreck for relations with US allies, and that does concern me.

That is deposit worthy. ( Take it to the bank and draw some interest on it )

 

[PaulinVA]

Please do not use an insulting label of Vice President Pence who is a very good man and admired by the majority of Americans.

NO, do some research before you post your opinion.

The latest RealClearPolitics average has his approval rating at 40.2% favorable.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

I seriously doubt this was written by anyone in the administration. The New
York Times is concocting a story.

ROFLMAO at another Conspiracy Theory.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

If I remember right, he claimed his own personal war was not catching a venereal disease at nightclubs.

That one gave me a few chuckles.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

It’s Deep Throat all over again.

And Deep Throat denied who he was for a long time.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

That’s precisely what dedicated Trumpers think. His “fake news” & “enemy of the people” campaigns have worked, just as he planned.

And if he tells them to jump off a cliff, I am sure they will oblige without question.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

the letter said there are a group of people, not just one person, working in the White House , to prevent stupid things happening.

I would read that as not just one decision in the ‘resistance’

I read the same thing.

 

[JoshuaIsLord]

Oh, please!

A “senior government official”, who knows he/she will be outed at some point, would not make a physical threat to the President.

This is referring to 25th amendment or impeachment. Both are 'possibilities.

Or could just mean that 2020 is fast approaching.

 

[Ridgerunner]

I’m not hostile toward McCain. He had his good points and his not-so-good ones. The latter are not important now. I don’t “require” that any politician “fall into line” behind Trump. Some things matter more than others, and some are more subject to individual judgment than others.

 

[Ridgerunner]

The op-ed makes indicates that the writer is not Deep State or Democrat, but a senior administrative official.

The stoolie, if real, lives a lie every single day; pretending to serve when he is doing his best to thwart. And we’re to believe anything he says?

 

[Ridgerunner]

who knows he/she will be outed at some point

“Deep throat” was never outed without his consent. This latter-day rat has no particular reason to think he will be, either.
