Trying to dilute his actions is essentially an illegal coup. For another, if you feel the president cannot lead, you loudly resign en masse and say why. These jerks want us to think that they’re heroes when in reality their plan was to use Donald Trump to enact the policies they want. Now that he has proven to be batshit, they realize that working in his administration is going to be a stain on their resumes forever and so they are trying to spin it as being part of the “resistance” from within the White House.

Agree 100%.

Also agree. Bunch of cowardly enablers.

Also no way it is Pence. I don't think he is capable of sounding so reasonable without invoking his faith. He is also conflicted and I don't think the NYT would/ should publish something like that from someone who clearly stands to benefit if 45 resigns/ is impeached.

I agree it's someone in more of a overall policy/ foreign policy or law enforcement type role. I would be very, very surprised if it were someone from the military - just too dangerous for them to go there.

Right, but I think it’s someone with a political background, not a career military or career law enforcement type.

it is not this hillbilly cow.

I just love liberals. If the woman is a conservative, their appearance is fair game. But hands off if she's a liberal!

I am liberal and agree with you that this is wrong. But don't be so simple minded....there are plenty of 5th grade playground name callers on your side too. And I think you know it.

My money is on Nikki Haley.

Do not think it is Haley.

It was all over the news tonight (YES, MSNBC, CNN) that the Times would NOT have run with this if the source were not very, very, very high up. This is unprecedented.

I think someone is setting Pence up with "Lodestar" - certainly he could not be THAT dumb to use his go-to coin word?

Also, everyone is accusing "him" . . . could it be . . . a "SHE?"

BETSY DEVOS???? NO WAY. Not smart enough to pen that.

To be fair I skipped a bunch of pages in the middle of this thread so I probably missed a bunch. But to the PP who guessed Mnuchin? I think not.

My guesses? Louise Linton OR Melania with help of a translator.

God Bless America.

The first lady is not a member of the administration

Neither is a senior administration official and this letter is out of both their depths. Trump doesn’t have many women in senior positions. Kellyanne?

Sessions?

Trump seems to think that’s a strong possibility.

Trump is pointing fingers at him. I doubt it, but in this crazy town, anything is possible.

Sessions isn’t smart enough either.

And someone mentioned Perry - for real? He’s a moron, too.

Sessions revenge? I'm surprised to not see him named much here


Would love it to be Ivanka.

This would actually be my guess. He's too chicken to put his name to the piece for obvious reasons, and probably thinks he'll be able to emerge unscathed from the ruins even if his FIL crashes and burns. He's also dumb enough to think he's qualified to make policy decisions.
