| Christopher Ruddy in a super relaxed pose with Donald Trump. |
A friend of President Trump said Sunday that the president has told him he expects to make one or two more major personnel changes in his administration soon, amid mounting signs that Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin is on the way out.
Christopher Ruddy, chief executive of Newsmax, said others in the White House, but not Trump, have told him that Shulkin is “likely to depart the Cabinet very soon.”
Ruddy, who speaks frequently to Trump, said on ABC News’s “This Week” that Trump believes that, on the whole, the White House is operating “like a smooth machine” and has been “perplexed” by news reports of chaos.
“He did say that he’s expecting to make one or two major changes to his government very soon,” Ruddy said.
If this White House is running like a "smooth machine" than I would hate to see what it would look life if it were falling apart at the seams.
Hang on, we are actually witnessing EXACTLY what that would look like.
There are already so many people jumping ship or being thrown overboard that if there are any more Rachel Maddow will have to stand outside on the street so that all of the names can be beamed onto the side of 30 Rock in order to fit in one graphic.
That is NOT what a "smooth machine" of a presidency looks like.
That is what train wreck of a presidency looks like.
Or to put a finer point on it, that is what a Donald Trump presidency looks like.
In the meantime, the White House will deny all these departures until they happen one week later.
ReplyDeleteYup. They call it fake news.
Delete"President Trump has full confidence in (fill in the blank)." Has become the equivalent of saying Candy Man three times.
DeleteEmptying the sewer swamp in the peoples house is good because when the temporary replacement for this shitshow of the Russian mob begins the scum will already be gone.

ReplyDelete"The Kochs immediately infested the Trump administration, and their fingerprints have been all over much of his executive action and agenda. Republicans have been dreaming about privatizing the VA for decades. Veterans were promised healthcare as part of their reward for serving their country, but the Republican privatization plans cut and cap healthcare services.
It is only a matter of time before Trump fires Shulkin, proclaims the VA to be a failure, and announces a privatization scheme. With Democrats on the cusp of sweeping back into power, the Koch brothers feel the urgency of NOW."

Trump is following Hitler's playbook. Eventually he will have all the most loyal monsters in place for his Reich.

ReplyDelete"Fresno field office of Democratic congressional candidate Andrew Janz. Most have never been actively involved in politics, but they believe the 34-year-old Fresno County Deputy District Attorney has what it takes to unseat their congressman, Republican Rep. Devin Nunes, and turn California’s 22nd congressional district from red-to-blue. While projections show that Nunes is still safe in the upcoming 2018 elections, momentum against the incumbent has been building."
Good. More power to them. I don't vote in their district so I hope they succeed. Nunes is a black eye to the entire state.
DeleteIssa isn't my rep. either but I'm glad to hear he'll be gone too.
Now, if we could just get rid of Rohrbacher.
