Anyone who still supports this asshole is either uneducated and not bothering to follow current events, or a proud traitor to the United States of America.

Trump: "TREASON?"

How long until Trump announces a bounty on this person? And would he do it by tweet or executive order?
there is no check or balance. if the president says go, they go. you are fired if you would disobey that order. in an emergency you can't have people second guess themselves.
What if the person who wrote the article is black?
Pretty sure they'd add to the bounty...
Decided to take a look at The_Donald to see how that cesspit is handling all this...
"Yes, pretty much confirms that Trump got all the leakers. "I am double crossing the most powerful man in the world, but on my break I thought I'd write an op-Ed about it". Give me a fucking break. How stupid do they think people are?"
Of course this is what they think.

I'm surprised Jacob Wohl hasn't been arrested already for trying to suck Trump's dick
The Woodward quotes and this op-ed suggest that staff members have divided executive power as they see fit, and follow just the 'least bad' orders. Again, the president asked for Mueller to be fired last year, and asked for Assad's head on a stick.
The Woodward quotes and this op-ed suggest that Republicans will tolerate anything as long as they they get their rubber stamp for conservative policy. They describe Trump as amoral, but what is more amoral than keeping this corpse of a presidency smiling, animated, and waving?
Imagine the "this is fine" dog in front of a podium.
His court picks will still be here in 20 years, so not bloody likely.
I'd like to believe he'd be immediately tackled. While the people around him are horrific people in their own right, they *believe* that they're good. Threatening to start a world-destroying nuclear war is not good under any definition.
This is almost certainly a nonsense scenario, though.
He's not done fucking us over for him and his billionaire friends. Part of me thinks that he's going to pass as much shitty legislation as he can to make money for his pals and when the heat gets too close he resigns because of some "evil media smear job". this is probably the best outcome, though fixing his bullshit will take years and years.
In many ways, the Republican party is already dead. It's the Trump Party now.
Of course. In the postapocalypse, the Wal-Amazon CloudManager AI will automatically pump us full of sweet, synthetic dopamine whenever we feel unpleasant, such as when we look back on the Trump Administration, or when we have to eat a live human being to keep from starving.
I'm confused. Wouldn't it be gutless to give into demands to turn over sources? I'm pretty sure that the NY Times has a pretty full gut if they are not.
Oh, we are too far gone for this to just fizz out and become the punchline for jokes.
His supporters are so radicalized, and his grasp on power so strong, the whole thing will be protracted and messy.
Only at the people that we know voted for Trump but at that time swear to God they voted for Hillary.
I just read the OP ed and holy crap there was talk of invoking the 25th. Hooolllyyy shiiitttt.
I always suspected that some members of the admin stayed there as damage control and now its completely confirmed.

C'mon, you get the pillows and a knife, I'll buy some turpentine less GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
No. It hasn't changed. Trump is saying and doing the things the Republican constituency voted him in to do. It's not the party of Trump. The Republican Party supports and enables Trump. You can't separate the two, and Republicans don't deserve to be let off the hook by passing the blame onto a new entity. This is all on them.
White House going to be renamed the Red House after all this.
That's just the thing, this comes, JUST like the desires for protest bannings, or firing Mueller, or any number of things he WANTS or wants someone to do or not do...is shown to be ignored on the regular. He's becoming decoupled from the levers of power he even had the inkling to understand in the first place (note how he thinks like a mobbed-up private business owner and doesn't "get" what the POTUS can and cannot do from day one).
Hell, much of his mewling demands may be some desperate grab at feeling powerful, a feeling that is leaving him as one by one his confidantes rat him out, his loyalists go to jail, his ability to order things to happen slip away, and a certain "ex"-KGB gent gets very very disappointed with him.
Good to know that his definition of treason is about as loose, or worse, as a bunch of people here and on Twitter.
Here we go, conspiracy time. Trump team fabricates a "resistance" boy. They jail a NTY reporter AGAIN (Judith Miller went to jail for refusing to name sources in the Plame affair. the source was... Hey, it's Scooter Libby who was just pardoned for obstruction, perjury, and lying to the FBI by Trump... hmm...). NYT ultimately names source. Source is insulated with air-tight alibi. WH builds public case against NYT for faking the whole thing.
