Anonymous op-ed in New York Times : criticism of Trump from senior official in Trump administration

I like how he says at the end he wants Americans to come together and doesn't entail what that means at all. And do what? Vote Democrat?

He's probably just salty the Koch brothers money dried up after Trump told him he was serious about the wall.

But we believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic.

The root of the problem is the president’s amorality. Anyone who works with him knows he is not moored to any discernible first principles that guide his decision making.

President Trump so alarmed his defense secretary, Jim Mattis, during a discussion last January of the nuclear standoff with North Korea that an exasperated Mr. Mattis told colleagues “the president acted like — and had the understanding of — a ‘fifth or sixth grader.’”

Mr. Trump’s aides became so worried about his judgment that Gary D. Cohn, then the chief economic adviser, took a letter from the president’s Oval Office desk authorizing the withdrawal of the United States from a trade agreement with South Korea. Mr. Trump, who had planned to sign the letter, never realized it was missing.


These all sound like they were written by someone who knows him well.

And how did those things turn out?? No nuclear war... and was an agreement ever made with S. Korea?

Yet he wants him to succeed and KNOWS HE IS SUCCEEDING

At least this dude has some brain function, although his behavior is also treasonous

I love how all the fucking idiots don't blame the resist resist resist movement and all their hideous and violent behavior for any of the divisiveness occurring in this country, including this author. For me, that says it all, nothing but another hit piece without a shred of objectivity he pretends to have.

Nothing about Trump Insurance, a Trumped up investigation, Democrats saying they won't agree to anything because they want him to fail. Nothing about the protests, the riots, attacking conservatives, banning conservatives, calling us racist, calling us white supremacists, calling us deplorable, calling us deniers........ Nope, none of that is dividing us, Trump is.

Mueller & Comey & Hillary & Maxine Waters & the DNC and Chucky and Nancy and impeachment, and Hollywood are all reasoned and thoughtful participants in this debate. Trump is the problem.

Good god almighty, they are far too dense in the political arena, they're unreachable, THEY ARE A BUNCH OF BRAIN DEAD FUCKING IDIOTS, NOT ONE REASONABLE THOUGHT TO BE FOUND.

And they hate WINNING, go figure

I've never seen such a massive and expansive display of pure ignorance in my life, just as dumb as they come.

Did I mince any words?

Yeah, okay. Anyone who doesn't see that the Orange Menace cares only about himself and his wallet and couldn't give two fucks about the country is a sucker. Let me say it loud and with pictures, so maybe even a Trumpster will understand....

You've been conned by Don the Con, the biggest conman of all!!!!! Trump will NOT finish his term, either he'll resign in disgrace from all his criminal troubles, or he'll be impeached once the House and Senate become Democratic!
