I Don't Believe That Trump Came Up With Stripping Brennen Of...

[global1]

his security clearance by himself.

This like came out of left field and I just can't envision Trump saying - 'I know what I'll do I'll strip this guy of his security clearance'. I don't think Trump even has a concept of how that whole think works and the implications to this country.

I have to believe that Trump was given this idea from someone else that has a better grasp of security clearances. The question is who told Trump to do this?

Putin? Gholiani? Nunes? Who?

[dchill]

1. I think it came out of RIGHT field, if you know what I mean.

[a kennedy]

10. Ha ha, I thought that as well.

[HipChick]

2. Trump is a puppet..

[C_U_L8R]

3. Smells like Stephen Miller

It certainly wasn't Coats

[handmade34]

4. Rand Paul! nt

[Gothmog]

5. global, I guarantee you, "trump did this" , "trump chose that", "trump named so-and-so" ETC

is all complete and total horseshit!!

The only thing he does pretty much on his own is send out tweets and rile his minions at rallies, and that is IT - - the rest of all these crucial decisions is the work of - Putin, Mogilevich, Miller, Bannon, people we never heard of, I don’t know

Anyway, sorry for rant, but yeah, NONE of this is “trump”, NONE OF IT

[dchill]

24. Yeah...

But it's ON Trump!

[snowybirdie]

6. John Bolton

Had his muddy hands all over it

[spanone]

7. Bill Shine....it's the big distraction from Omarosa

[leftyladyfrommo]

8. It is just plain mean.

So I think Trump was behind it. One way or anothet.

[elleng]

9. You mean RIGHT field?

[Mad-in-Mo]

11. It could be any one of several evil doers ---

Rand Paul, Devin Nunes, Stephen Miller. For all we know Hannity told him to do it. Or Mr. Moldy Cheese Bannon

[ProudLib72]

12. Melania!

It was part of their post-sex pillow talk, you know when they tell each other how they really feel and what they are thinking about.

[meow2u3]

13. Stephen Miller?

I wouldn't put it past Stephen Miller to punish critics of his boss. Nor would I put it past John Kelly--what a tragic case he is!

[haele]

14. Bolton or Kelly.

They understand better than civilians what pulling a security clearance will do; they've worked with the IC.

Haele

[PatSeg]

15. Yeah

There are a lot of things coming out of this White House that clearly did not originate with Trump. There is so much more going on in the background than we know about. Trump is busy being a spoiled, spiteful brat, someone(s) else has an agenda.

[global1]

16. So When We Hear This Is The Party Of Trump And Not The Old GOP.....

it really isn't his Party. Someone else is working behind the scenes making the moves attributed to Trump and making Trump look like he is a political whiz that took over the Repug Party.

I'm wondering who it is that really hijacked the Repug Party and why the rank and file Repug House Reps and Senators won't challenge Trump.

It's not that they fear Trump. They fear whomever it is behind the scenes that is pulling the punches that are attributed to Trump.

And if this is what's going on - then it really instills fear in me - because we don't know whom is manipulating Trump. It is very sinister.

Fortunately for whomever is pulling the punches behind the scene that they have a personality like a Trump to use. He loves that all this crap that is going on is attributed to him.

[PatSeg]

20. Yes, it is sounding very sinister

Someone is using Trump's bizarre personality traits as a distraction. They probably know that his time as a leader/distraction is short-lived, so they may have to work extra fast. Sounds like a spoof of a Tom Clancy novel, but I'm afraid it is all too real and whatever the ultimate objective(s), it could be devastating. Perhaps it has to do with altering the constitution and the Supreme Court for generations, insuring permanent minority rule by the corporate class.

Whoever is behind it, they are keeping a low profile. Unlike Trump and his stooges, the puppet masters are devious, organized, and focused. They could have been planning this for many years.

[Gothmog]

17. This idiotic idea came from Rand Paul

[FSogol]

19. Hannity? n/t

[GeorgeGist]

21. Kelly

[Stinky The Clown]

22. Stephen Miller
