NEW: John Bolton’s No. 2, Mira Ricardel, was escorted from the White House moments ago, an administration officials tell ⁦@WSJ⁩. Ricardel was standing just a few feet from President Trump earlier this afternoon.

Paywalled article embedded in tweet, with the headline suggesting Bolton may also be on the way out.

Bolton is scary. However, do you think the next guy will be any better? The enemy you know....

You should be able to find out a lot about the next one, all you have to do is read the court documents about whatever fraud they are currently being prosecuted for.

It seemed impossible that Trump would find a replacement for AG worse than Sessions, yet he did.
I guess if anyone is capable of finding someone less suitable to be National Security Adviser than Bolton, it is Trump.

Don't forget Trump did - he started with someone less suitable, he's worked his way UP to Bolton!

Yeah I know that's even scarier isn't it!
 
Ricardel seems to just be a cantankerous beeyotch. She was originally one of the Trumpiest people in the admin, getting into feuds with State and Defense because their selections for jobs weren't sufficiently orange.

Then she goes and picks a fight with Melania's people? She's just into career seppuku.

I hope Bolton stays. If we can't get that reprehensible **** Miller out in the open, at least we have the warmonger-in-chief visible enough.

Get ready for National Security Adviser Alex Jones.
 
New Wapo reporting adds weight to what already seems obvious: the whackjob who is POTUS has been in extreme meltdown mode the past week.

Five Days of Fury: Inside Trump's temper, election woes, and staff upheaval
  • Epic post-election press conference meltdown
  • Receives congratulatory* call from Theresa May; he berates her
  • Skips memorial event
  • Erupts at staff for making him look bad for allowing him to skip event
  • Holes up in hotel room, watching TV nonstop and tweeting CTs
  • In a huff with Macron; he feels personally attacked
  • Continues with barrage of CT drivel from plane ride home
  • Unloads on Macron
  • Skips Arlington on Veteran's Day
A week in the life.

* She took his election victory proclamation seriously?
 
Belatedly, my favorite part of his epic press conference meltdown was when he listed the Republicans who didn't fully embrace him, and proceeded to lose. It might as well be a scene from Heathers.

It was more like Der Fuhrer’s final proclamations from the bunker where he declared the German people weren’t worthy of him.
 
So is "New angry Trump" here to stay? Is Trump completely unable to maintain his old act in a government that isn't 100% sycophantic to him?

Mark Shields referenced it to a leader who, after the battle, shots those of his men who were wounded.

Sounds like somebody said "no" to Trump's immigrant whore.

There is no way we can let comments like this get buried in the other thread.

Posts like this need to be exposed for all to condemn.

Factually (yes I know we are in Trump world and facts don't matter but we have to start somewhere) Melania IS an immigrant so I guess it is the "w" word you are objecting too? OK then, let's call her an Immigrant Mother to an Anchor baby and a cause of Chain Migration. Is that better TBD?

As Parsman says, she's an immigrant. No problem yet, right. I commend the author for showing restraint not to describe her as an illegal immigrant, as that apparently is a possibility.

As for "whore" -- Do you also object to "prostitute"? I admit that my negative opinions of Trump are such that it's inconceivable to me that someone would choose to marry him other than for financial gain.

Though the comment is crass, and probably best left unsaid, it aligns with how I see her.

We used to call them "gold diggers."
