Trump Staffers Are Freaking Out
Even More Than Usual Right Now1. The Wall Street Journal reports that the White House staff has attempted to correct Trump’s mistaken beliefs about Amazon, to no avail. Staffers a “arranged private briefing” that “they believed debunked his concerns that Amazon was dodging taxes and exploiting the U.S. Postal Service.” But Trump continued to directly contradict what he had learned because, a source explains, “It’s not the narrative he wants.”[New York]
“Early in President Trump’s term, when White House officials heard him complain vociferously about Amazon.com Inc. they arranged private briefings in the Oval Office to make sure that he would talk knowledgeably about the company,” the Wall Street Journal reports.[Political Wire]
“Gary Cohn, his top economic adviser, and other officials gave PowerPoint presentations and briefing papers they believed debunked his concerns that Amazon was dodging taxes and exploiting the U.S. Postal Service.”
“It made little difference. Mr. Trump persisted in attacks that ran counter to the material they had showed [sic] him.”
Still waiting to see even one "source" for Trump's claims just yesterday of massive voter fraud in the "millions" in California & "rape at levels that nobody has ever seen before", somewhere. That is, sources beyond "Duh, everybody knows." (And as if he's read a "novel" in the last 50 yrs.)“I sort of feel that the press is so bad, it’s so fake, it’s so made up. I mean ‘sources say,’ and they have no sources. They’re like novelists. I call them novelists.”[Political Wire]
— President Trump, quoted by CBS News, on why he won’t attend the White House Correspondent’s Association dinner.
The sheer fucking gall of this lying, traitorous son-of-a-bitch accusing anyone else of making shit up is beyond belief. Rather than the proverbial lone gunman w/ issues & a mail-order rifle/Saturday Night Special, we're going to see the first assassination of an American President by a completely rational & sane person who is simply doing the job that Congress has so far failed to perform.
