Trump insiders "afraid for the country"



Jan 8, 2018
In his explosive new book “Fire and Fury,” exploring the first year of Donald Trump’s presidency, Michael Wolff said the people closest to the president were “afraid for their own careers and for the country.” Wolff sits down with Judy Woodruff to discuss what he learned through his reporting and the pushback he has received, including from the president himself.

why are they hanging around supporting Trump? Every one of them should resign and speak out. For the"good" of the country. I guess party is more important than country and supporting a racist bigot who loves the murderer Vladimir Putin is more important than country.

Country's going to hell under Trump, therefore I should continue to enable him. Fuck the 25th Amendment, normal humans should simply stop serving. Humiliate the prick and he'll fold.....I don't see Trump living in this country in 3 years.

Interesting that Wolff mentioned careers first -- I'm sure that's by far the bigger concern for Trump's retinue.

Of course, they have to be afraid for their freedom, as well.
