"Now I’m F---ing Doing It My Way": Jubilant and Self-Liberated, the President Prepares for War with Mueller
With John Dowd out, John Kelly and Ty Cobb marginalized, Joseph diGenova on board, and Marc Kasowitz possibly returning, the next battle comes into focus.
GABRIEL SHERMAN MARCH 22, 2018 2:40 PM


For the better part of the last month, Donald Trump has been winging it. His standoff with his chief of staff, John Kelly, appears to be resolved for the time being, with Trump having decided to return to the seat-of-the-pants decision-making that he believes won him the presidency. That doesn’t mean he has fully given up the idea of firing Kelly, though. One outside adviser to the White House said Trump has recently mulled the concept of creating a new West Wing structure without a chief of staff, one that would instead have four co-equal principals reporting directly to him. Trump seems to be loving his new freedom. “He was fucking excited and jubilant,” said one Trump friend who spoke to him in recent days. “He was like, everything’s great and these fuckers in the media are beside themselves.”

But Trump’s self-liberation comes at a dangerous moment, with special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation reaching closer and closer, stoking Trump’s impulses to go to war. Earlier this month, Mueller crossed one of Trump’s stated “red lines” when he subpoenaed Trump Organization business records. According to four Republicans in regular contact with the White House, the move spurred Trump to lose patience with his team of feuding lawyers. “Trump hit the roof,” one source said. Today, Trump’s personal lawyer John Dowd resigned under pressure from Trump.

In private, Trump friends and outside advisers have been stoking his desire to go on the offensive for months. Trump has heard that his lawyers are “idiots”; that Mueller’s probe is a “coup d’etat”; and that Trump’s only crime is having “won the election.”

1. Bring It Captain Bone Spur

and don't forget what Mueller did during that time

[workinclasszero]

4. Shitler is dangerously unhinged

Unstable and growing wilder by the minute. Now surrounding himself with toadies, sycophants and yes men.

They will encourage and endorse his base gutter instincts. I hope America and the world in general can resist his maniacal insanity.

Its a long, long time till the midterm elections.

[poboy2]

11. A White House full of conspiracy theorists

Imagine the sheer unbridled lunacy and lies we are about to endure.
Feral Alt-right paranoia and a malignant narcissist madman that has red buttons.

November may be too late.

[workinclasszero]

16. Its amazing that nothing can be done till then

because an entire political party has chosen ideology over country and the rule of law.

[poboy2]

22. Are we going to allow western civilization to be dismantled by a madman?

Who wants this? This is life and death shit.

[workinclasszero]

24. Its like we are helpless until the midterms

And if you don't think Russia/Facebook/Cambridge Analytica/whatever isn't going to try to corrupt that election, you ain't been payin attention.

[CanonRay]

15. Nailed it

[sheshe2]

5. The article is from Vanity Fair

Trump. Thy name is vanity. sorry son, you are just a laughing stock to the entire world.

[Kath2]

7. And a total disgrace to this country.

Of whom 3 million more people voted against him.

[sheshe2]

9. sad isn't it.

[Kath2]

10. It is very sad.

I was radicalized as a feminist and a progressive at 15. Because of Nixon. This is even worse.

[herding cats]

2. My money's on Mueller.

Trump has assembled a PR team of legal counsel in an attempt to smear Mueller, but Mueller has truth and justice on his side.

I have to believe, for all our sakes, Mueller prevails.

[mnmoderatedem]

17. of course he will prevail

if he's allowed to

[John Fante]

3. If you were truly doing it your way you would have fired Mueller ages ago.

Delusional chump.

[Angry Dragon]

6. Trump is an egotistical low self-esteem racist bully

[BigmanPigman]

8. People are saying he will now fire Mueller OR

his new attorneys will let him have his way and he will testify and hang himself. Now the question is, will the GOP in both chambers live up to what they said this week and if that happens (fires Mueller) he will be impeached by them and that will end his presidency?

[mr_lebowski]

12. pfffffff .... love ya girl, but you're dreamin' ...

If the GOP was going to DO ... jack? They'd observe what Trumps been saying and doing the past week and already have a bill on the Floor protecting Mueller. But they don't.

Their excuse they gave last time 'oh, we don't need to cause there's no SIGN he's planning on doing so' ... is a complete of f***ing horseshit. They didn't cause they don't want to ... and he's making OBVIOUS gestures now ... and they won't do shit, again, cause that was never the real reason they didn't act months ago. They don't wanna.

If they believe he has any semblance of a viable plan, even WAR, or martial law, or widespread massive cheating ... to keep them in power come November? They'll won't do a damn thing to him if he fires Mueller. And hiring of Bolton was meant to give them that assurance ... War is Coming ... don't worry if I fire Mueller!

[BigmanPigman]

14. That seems to be the way the GOP is acting

with the Moron. "Party Over Country" not as much as personal greed and power over anything/everything.

[Nevernose]

13. I dont buy it

The sentiments are probably true, but those sources are clearly full of shit. No way Trump knows the “d’etat” after the word “coup.”

Trump is clever, but he’s also a total fucking moron.

[Orsino]

18. Why, a year (or thirty) on, is anyone mistaking what Trump says out loud...

...for how Trump really feels?

That he remembers how to act jubilant in front of others has nothing to do with whether or not he feels isolated, frightened and completely out of his depth.

[TheBlackAdder]

19. Where have I seen this before?

.

"fucking thing sucks!"

.

[Blue_Tires]

20. So what was he doing before now??

[ProfessorGAC]

21. More Fake Tough Guy Talk

And, his way appears to be doing things that make a giant inheritance worth 1/3rd (or far less) than it would have been if "his way" had been to do NOTHING but broadly invest the money.

"His way" has resulted in a personal loss of a MINIMUM of 9.6 million dollars.

Idiot.

[Scurrilous]

23. Jubilant and self-liberated my ass. n/t
