Trump FBI director interviews 'chaotic': report

BY JULIA MANCHESTER at the Hill

http://thehill.com/business-a-lobbying/336171-trump-fbi-director-interviews-chaotic-report

"SNIP................


The report says three associates of three contenders for the position have participated in 10 to 20-minute conversations with Trump, Vice President Pence, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions, as well as longer initial interview with the Justice Department.


One source said there is no “clear framework or logic for who was interviewed and why,” while another described the process as “chaotic.”

According to those sources, conversations were reportedly not completely substantive and Trump talked a lot about himself.

The White House has not commented on the process, but Sean Spicer said the president is continuing to meet with candidates.

The report comes less than a week before fired FBI Director James Comey publicly testifies before the Senate Intelligence Committee. Comey will face questions regarding the FBI probe into potential ties between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin next Wednesday.

Anyone surprised? I don't think there's much else he CAN talk about. Certainly not with the same enthusiasm.

who would want their "career path" to lead to working with "Orange Cheat-o?"
If and when he goes down (tomorrow would be a good start!), where would that leave any candidate?

You have to wonder what the Repugs have in mind if they've ever thought "long-range" anything after getting him as their "leader." Yes, he's helping them undo many things that PRESIDENT OBAMA had done, but, what will they do when he f**ks them over too?

This guy is an ______________ (insert any crazy description you can think of - it won't be enough to describe him!) and we've got a serious problem on our hands and need to wait for the "Pugs" to realize it before we can get anything done to get him gone!
