#teamOmarosa

I don't know what kind of career Omarosa will have after her WH and now book selling days, but its a given that no one would ever trust her to NOT record a conversation. 

It may be tempting to record people but no one would want to speak with someone known for that.  I knew a contractor at work that recorded her boss cursing during a conversation.  She took the recording to HR and HR fired the contractor for recording employees without their permission.  Or something to that effect.

Remember when I was saying you don’t need to brag about your Wharton degree if you’ve done something worth mentioning since you graduated?

This is what it looks like.

I say Gotdamn!!!!!

McRaven carrries a bad motherfucker wallet. 

Trump carries a fupa.

If you've got McRaven speaking out against you, that's a YOU problem. 

Forcing the right to blow back against the dude that killed fucking bin Laden is glorious.  My bet is the phrase "recent chancellor for the notoriously liberal UT-system" gets used a lot more on Fox than "admiral" or "bin Laden" tonight.

Trump should have a nickname for McRaven shortly.  I'll go with Crazed Admiral

What makes you think it’ll be on Fox at all?

Yep, they will all ignore this one.  They won't dare talk shit about McRaven.

This.  They will keep this one quiet.  They/Trump have no response to the guy who oversaw OBL being killed. 

Eh, I dunno......just because Admiral McRaven recovered from a broken fucking back from a military parachuting accident (and returned to action later) doesn't mean he has any stronger patriotic moral fiber than President Bone Spurs.

They'll keep it quiet until Trump tweets some shit about him, and he won't be able to resist.

Waiting to hear from anastasis and grhorn on why McRaven shouldn't have a clearance.

I’m more interested in Slorch’s thoughts on the projected cost of the military parade vs the cost of Korean military exercises.

The entire quote needs to be shown.

Quote

 

Dear Mr. President:

Former CIA director John Brennan, whose security clearance you revoked on Wednesday, is one of the finest public servants I have ever known. Few Americans have done more to protect this country than John. He is a man of unparalleled integrity, whose honesty and character have never been in question, except by those who don’t know him.

Therefore, I would consider it an honor if you would revoke my security clearance as well, so I can add my name to the list of men and women who have spoken up against your presidency.

Like most Americans, I had hoped that when you became president, you would rise to the occasion and become the leader this great nation needs.

A good leader tries to embody the best qualities of his or her organization. A good leader sets the example for others to follow. A good leader always puts the welfare of others before himself or herself.

Your leadership, however, has shown little of these qualities. Through your actions, you have embarrassed us in the eyes of our children, humiliated us on the world stage and, worst of all, divided us as a nation.

If you think for a moment that your McCarthy-era tactics will suppress the voices of criticism, you are sadly mistaken. The criticism will continue until you become the leader we prayed you would be.

He might as well have said "until unicorns saunter into town bearing multiple Texas A&M national championship trophies" -- well, no, scratch that -- that actually has better odds of happening than DOTUS becoming a leader.

He needs to run for office.

I agree he could have gone for the kill. But he's a smart man. He's knows taunting does no good. You can't shame the shameless. He's taking the high road, which he should.

Oh, I ain't questioning how the good Admiral wages combat.  He's fighting a known enemy with sound tactics -- you know, the thing he fucking does better than most people on the planet.

Trump's a toddler playing a man's game.  And a man just stepped in the fucking ring and said "okay....I'll fight."

And it would be a fun fight to watch. McRaven has widespread support within all branches. If more and more retired officers start speaking up this is going to get very interesting. Perhaps Trump has a parade and no one shows up.

If Trump were to get into a stupid spat with some aggy, you can bet that Rick Perry would bite his pillow and keep quiet about it.

Not a word of it on Fox, Drudge or Breitbart. Trumpkins will have no clue McRaven ever spoke out. To be fair, it would really hurt their pea-brains, probably best for them.
