Shouldn't have run his mouth on North Korea... when both the SOS and SOD have to call you out... you're F'd.

Good.


I think all of us can agree that at the very least Trump is underperforming in his staff selections. This turnover rate is insane and a clear contributor to his lack of legislative success. Makes you wonder how much more he could accomplish if he had a stable support base.


I'm against any legislation he's likely to propagate tho so I ain't mad about it.

Right...trump needs to resign then. That's the only way to start to actually make America great again. Those guys are hurting this country and I think you know it.

I wouldn't say that he is underperforming in his staff selections... I would say he holds his people to a higher standard, more like a businessman and less like a bureaucrat.

Obama's people weren't under the same media microscope, either.

He himself has said he only hires the best people. If his selections don't meet his "high standards" then they're ****** selections...

Perception if nothing else... Trump has to take some action to save his presidency. Fair or unfair...that is the reality.

Senate Democrats urged the Trump administration to block the merger, saying that the combined AT&T/Time Warner control over both distribution and content "will lead to higher prices, fewer choices, and poorer quality services for Americans."

Trump's campaign promise

When he was campaigning for president, Trump said that AT&T/Time Warner is "a deal we will not approve in my administration because it's too much concentration of power in the hands of too few." Last month, there were reports that White House officials have discussed using the merger review as "leverage" against CNN, whose news coverage has been frequently criticized by Trump. But Trump hasn't repeated his promise to block the merger since becoming president.

From a conservative standpoint, he's a jerk who runs his mouth too much.

From the liberal standpoint, he is associated with the far right. Simply put, he's too conservative for them.

I suspect "jerk who runs his mouth too much" is code for "not an establishment puppet".

No, it means he is out there bad-mouthing other members of his team-the Trump administration- and undermining the Trump policy on North Korea. He likes to be a lightning rod if you ever read any of his interviews.

Bannon was executive chairman of Breitbart.

Breitbart Wiki

It is a conspiracy minded news (fake news) site. If you go to wiki and read about the notable stories you will see that they have published some true crap. I am a proud republican...and I can tell you by and large Breitbart published a lot of crap...in with some stories that are true but not covered by msm...

How long before the fake news reports that Trump fired Bannon because he called neo-nazis "a bunch of clowns."

I would much rather have a President who holds people accountable but doesn't bat 1.000 on appointments. The White House is being run more like a business... and in business, people get fired if they don't perform.

Obama stuck with people who had no business being in the White House or overseeing governmental departments.

Is anyone upset at this? I doubt it. He has been nothing but a problem from day one.
