Maddow: President Trump Isn't Attacking Critics, He's Going After Witnesses
I Gave Trump A Year To Live Up To The Office. He Didn't.
"What really gets under my skin is Mr. Trump's lack of decency, integrity, honesty, and his lack of commitment to this country's well-being and national security."- John Brennan
So here's the thing, some of you must have thought it would be amusing to vote in the "Reality TV" President. And sure, Hillary Clinton is most certainly a "hold your nose" and vote type candidate - just like Obama before her. Everybody hates the Clinton's because they are status quo, hawkish jackasses. But Trump is actually more dangerous because he is both more unscrupulous, more self-interested, and just plain dumb. He is doing unprecedented things because he seems to think nobody will retaliate. But he is actively undermining the very people we have entrusted with our safety for literally decades. Maybe some of those people don't deserve our trust, or have occasionally overstepped the mark of what was proper. But at least such people did not bend over, drop their pants, and grease up for Russian criminals.
I seriously hope those of you that voted for Trump did it for a laugh, because if you voted for him because you believed in him...well, let's just say that your ignorance and inability to read someone is appalling.
We're in a strange moment of free fall right now. Caesar has crossed the Rubicon and everyone is momentarily astonished at the sheer bravado and lunacy of such a despicable act. But believe me, you cannot in any country in this whole wide world go after the intelligence community and not pay the price. Trump is so stupid he is literally forcing the hand of a coup d'etat. Hopefully, some congress critters will make some smart moves first that forestalls such an inevitability. We specifically need some GOP members to forget about the fucking polling numbers and go after this embarrassment we must call our president.
