Oh this is ridiculous. I am sick and tired of White House officials anonymously leaking to the press that they are ashamed of Trump, or scared of Trump or somehow keeping Trump in check. THEY ARE ALL COMPLICIT. They could quit. Stop giving them this face saving forum.

The tweet from the CEO of Axios that he's responding to:

Senior White House official: "I’ve never been more ashamed. I’m really honestly disgusted. I’m sick to my stomach. And they’re all celebrating it. They’re very very proud of themselves."

3. treason barr was laughing . . .

Every effing week there is always a "concerned" staffer and or official - disgusted, ashamed, sick to my stomach drama, and yet nothing is being done.

4. Come out publicly and make him fire you

That would be the most effective. An ambush interview on 60 Minutes. White House having no advanced knowledge of it.

6. What if they all had quit the day after inauguration? ...

7. They should quit instead of whining about it. They are enabling him.

They aren't reining him in, keeping him honest, curbing his wildest impulses--they aren't doing any of those things used as excuses for sticking around. Stop wasting everyone's time by bitching anonymously and just quit.

8. A lot of these Trump Republicans are backstabbers by nature

Honestly, Trump's White House is an Ayn Rand dream come true. A building full of careerists dedicated to serving their own selfish needs first

[lame54]

9. I often wonder how these people can go to work everyday...

Knowing the anti American agenda they are pushing

They are just employees of the Whitehouse doing their jobs - bullshit

They crossed that threshold long ago

10. "Anonymous report: Attila's closest advisors somewhat concerned by his behavior"
