Bob Woodward's....'Fear....Trump In The White House"

           I doubt that many conservatives will read Bob Woodward's new book Fear....Trump In The White House....and that is truly sad. President Trump is neither likable or trustworthy but there is no way that the average conservative will see this unless they open their eyes. They may not read the book but everyone else around the world will....and they will see the insecurity....and they will see the chaos. I think that the President himself will read every word in the book.....highlighting and taking mental notes....steaming and threatening....and generating more quotes for future books.
           Woodward tried to cut President Trump an even break but his daily antics wear you down. Liberals were probably pulling their hair out for the first twenty chapters or so....but it seems as if the author gave up half way through the book which would in effect be halfway through President Trump's time in the White House so far. The specifics were obviously new to me but none of the antics and juvenile character traits were. These people who gave the interviews were worn down. Bob Woodward could not have made up these stories. Why would these people in the White House bare their souls like this if not that they are worried....not necessarily that they might be fired in a tweet by the President from the golf course....but worried about America?
           I've mentioned many times in these posts that the President's first mistake was to bring the two progressive jet-setters into the White House.....Ivanka and Jared. They have caused nothing but dissension while leading the President in the wrong direction on a number of occasions. We are still reeling from the disaster of Donald Trump Jr and Jared putting their minds together! This was a monumental and colossal failure on the President's part....and it was right at the beginning....and he still refuses to do anything about it....and we conservatives no longer even bring it up.
          President Trump needed to have all conservatives in his cabinet.....and as advisers.....and on his staff. Rex Tillerson would have been a good Secretary of State....for Jeb Bush. Peter Navarro and Gary Cohn would have been a good matchup....on a fight card at the Garden....but not in the Oval Office. Reince Preibus was just a poor choice for Chief of Staff....my hope was that Jim DeMint would have been offered that job....but I never heard his name mentioned for anything. There were too many generals brought in.....Donald Trump doesn't even like generals.  Steve Bannon had his hands full just dealing with Jared and Ivanka.....he lost....they won. Lewandowski and Scaramucci were just bad choices. Manafort was never vetted during the campaign. Giuliani is just a dis...traction whereas Hope Hicks was just an a...ttraction. General Kelly should have stayed at Homeland Security.
          Senator Lindsey Graham played the President like a fiddle....stroking his ego and sweet talking him. All of these people know what conservatives do not in that President Trump is very shaky....doesn't really have any interest in learning anything....and puts everything on a money-making grid.  Everyone is clinging for dear life to the good economic news. Read the book and you will wind up praying more....maybe even if you are an atheist.
