    My point is it's not a good situation for insiders to take it upon themselves to judge the pres unstable and try running things themselves then bragging about it like they're some kind of hero.

    A dangerous state of affairs when writing an OP which is regarded as disloyal to POTUS can be construed as a criminal act but shouting for a political opponent to be jailed is not.

    if the guy broke any laws it would be in regards to the 'resistance' he claims to be a part of and what they've done......he can write any OP he wants...1st amendment sez so.

    I would be interested if that was the case too under Obama, and I suspect now it was also the case

    Obama order the Pentagon to do something, some small time fuckwit there over ride his orders and do the opposite and nobody notices it

    Reagan's 2nd term, most likely a daily occurrence.

    and who the fuck the mole is to claim he is the "adults" running the show ?

    if we wanted an adult to run the fucking WH, we wouldn't have voted for Trump in the first place, and everyone knows that

    indeed, Bush was probably over riding all his decisions

    I would dare say the same with Bush Junior, he doesn't seem to have much control after 911 in making any decisions, Cheney was

    the perfect chimp to take the fall, for all Cheney mistakes

    That's hardly betraying democratic principles. More like exercising administrative prerogative to keep him from making a drastic mistake. He's not an infallible monarch.

    Doubt it. Trump is an undisciplined, easily distracted manchild who awakes from his Fox News stupor at 11:30 everyday to throw the WH into confusion and chaos. Obama was everything Trump is not - disciplined, hard working, articulate, focused, cerebral and dignified.

    From one of W's speech writers.....

    "Impeachment is a constitutional mechanism. The Twenty-Fifth Amendment is a constitutional mechanism. Mass resignations followed by voluntary testimony to congressional committees are a constitutional mechanism. Overt defiance of presidential authority by the president’s own appointees—now that’s a constitutional crisis."

    It's ironic that you would pick W's writer. He was a fucking idiot who did precisely what the neocons and daddy told him to.

    Baldy orange cunto isn't being defied here - he can sack anyone - but he's being manipulated the same as W was.

    That is precisely why he has been firing so many of his cabinet appointees. As long as the turnover is high there is chaos. No way to invoke the 25th.

    they should invoke the 25th solely because he can't pronounce the word 'anonymous'.

    Wrong. If he/she has broken any laws it's civil in so far as it was probably breach of a non-dosclosure agreement, and that's all.
    Whispering in the WH halls and agreeing amongst themselves that the pres is an idiot is a breach of no law. Making sure he doesn't sign an idiot proclamation breaks no laws.

    Tell me, Uncle J, if you were in the oval office as a cleaner (say...or as an aide...anything whereby you were in that office) and you saw a document that Trump had written that proposed as an executive order that all children of Democrats will henceforth be neutered, and you knew that if the document went missing Trump would forget about it.
    What would you do? Leave it and risk your boss being severely humiliated, or trash it knowing he wouldn't miss it and you wouldn't get caught?

    it's a bit too easy, what they are doing is treacherous

    next you are going to advocate that someone in the WH should shoot him and do the world a favor

    Our insecure manchild president wants to use the DOJ to investigate who wrote the NYT op ed and the NYT for publishing it. The idiot wants to be a king.

    There's an idea that's more than likely already been mentioned.

    He's considered himself king from the start. I recall a suggested solution to the Trump problem 18 months ago and in all seriousness it could have worked: Announce he is King of America then place him in one of his hotels to pretend to rule, but, like the queen of England, he'd be only a figure head. Meanwhile the country gets on with things with a newly elected president.

    On what grounds would Trumpelthinskin use the DOJ to investigate? No crime has been commited.
