Elections mean nothing.
No, elections mean a lot, which is why I believe Donald Trump is the legitimately elected President of the United States, as unhappy as I may be about that.

But, after the election, the behavior of the president means a lot, too.

If Trump did something Congress feels is worthy of impeachment and removal then so be it. The Founding Fathers explicitly made removal of the President a political matter. I don’t think it’s going to happen myself, but what is happening is a growing credibility gap, which means Trump loses political capital, and with a strong likelihood of the House flipping in November, his next two years as President will be different from the first two.

And please spare the tears for Trump. Republicans spent six years being as obstructionist as possible against Obama. If they don’t like this script, perhaps they should ponder their part in writing it.
Please. Name me one weasel inside the Obama WH working to undermine his presidency from the inside. List all of the networks and newspapers that worked with Deep State moles to leak information and spread lies as has happened over the last 18 months.
How many protesters disrupted the hearings for Kagan and Sotomayor.
Yes. The Republicans in the Congress tried to stop Obama’s policies. They didn’t resort to subversive practices.

The entire idea of this is to drive down Trump’S approval ratings to swing the midterm elections. It is a matter of collusion between the leftist media, the Deep State, and the DNC.

Presuming it is legitimate, is it possible that individual holds his or her loyalty first to his or her country?
I don’t think so. The following is simply off the wall. Nobody could believe the many people in the cabinet, many of them successful in their own right, are sitting around talking about the 25th Amendment. They could walk off any time they wanted to and curse Trump from the rooftops, but they don’t. And who WOULDN’T precipitate a “constitutional crisis” if they were that upset.
Why would you think these people would view a constitutional crisis as less disruptive than quietly working behind the scenes to keep Trump from doing any real damage? Remember, these people by and large agreed with Trumps general policy. They are not his enemies.
Maybe this person will give an interview to Bloomberg, and they will release his/her identity.

Probably not. As is the case with Theresa of the leftist media, integrity is a thing of the past.
Why would you think keeping their identity a secret shows a lack of integrity? If the person’s identity were revealed, any further good they might do in limiting damage would be over.

I would know. I am one of them.
You are a coward. You lack the courage and integrity to reveal yourself.
As I said, keeping the identity a secret is important to their continued good work.
To oppose the president in a republic is done in the open, not hiding like a weasel trying to undermine a duly elected president.
The particular good work they are doing can only be done in secret.

Cowardly hiding behind anonymity makes anything said suspicious. This person is harming, not helping. A weasel

There is no good work in trying to subvert a duly elected president. For all we know, this is a Russian plant, placed there by Fusion GPS , to undermine the American governmental process.

And for all you know, the person is a sincere American patriot, working within the system legally.
 
Oh, indeed. We shall see when the chickens come home to roost with the next Democrat president.
And on and on it will go, forever.

This all started with Newt Gingrich. It’s time to stop. We elected Donald Trump, an unusual (to say the least) choice. Let the chips fall where they may. But let’s stop.
 
I believe the OP ed writer is a patriot.

We’ve been talking for years here about how the opinions about Trump are so widely divergent. Has anyone been swayed by any discussion here?
 
It helps when your party controls all three branches of government. Not to mention eliminating filibusters.

Someday we may have the semblance of checks and balances again.
 
That’s rather like blaming the sheep for the poor shepherd. Want a more professional white house, start with the man in the oval office.
 
Why does he/she stay on if he/she thinks Trump is so bad?
As the person mentions in the piece, he/she and others are staying on to try to keep Trump from doing something really nuts.

Personally, I think “Anonymous” needs to go on the record, as do any other senior officials who agree. If it is really this bad (and I think it is) they need to do something about it, not just write anonymously. Additionally, this “two-tiered presidency” thing isn’t constitutional.

And there’s nothing treasonous about this. We don’t have a sovereign, and this person isn’t colluding with a foreign power.
 
it seems weirdly close to a combination of the usual Dem talking points and Woodward’s more fantastic assertions. I think it’s entirely fake. That’s not to say it wasn’t said by some deep stater in the government. Could be.
Trump has shown us for years what an amoral lowlife he is, but folks who used to espouse decent, conservative values elected him anyway. The assertions in the Woodward book ( I can’t wait to hear the tapes he has) and this piece simply reinforce what he has long shown us.

Because of a certain longstanding connection a family member has with someone very close to this administration, I can assure you that things are just as crazy as portrayed. This person has worked for a Cabinet member for decades and was very enthusiastic when Trump was elected. He now despises him and fears for our republic. I don’t expect you to believe it, but I’d swear to this on a Bible.

It’s time for folks to get their heads out of the sand with regard to just how dangerous Trump’s unsuitability for office is.

Exactly! The Constitution gave Congress the power to address a problematic president, not members of his cabinet.
