President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

What are the odds some foreign nation had hacked Omarosa's phone and got access to the situation room via it?

 

Minute, I would guess. ...

The important thing here is dummies elected someone who has no idea how government works, and then the same dummies are surprised to see that person has no idea how government works.

I get the problem with Omarosa brining a phone/recording device into the sit room, but my question is: why would the chief of staff use that room to fire a staffer? Also, I'm not a big defender of her, but the way Kelly tap-danced and stumbled around that firing before leaving her in that room with lawyers (again, in the sit room???), it sure didn't sound like he had a super-strong case against her.

 

Ironically, I would guess he used it to avoid being recorded.

Yes. Obviously true.

Another Monday, and yet another sobering reminder that the President of our United States called neo-Nazis "very fine people" is still golfi-, I mean, in office.
