(115,693 posts)Not that Trump ever avoids doing stupid shit. I thought Rosenstein was supposed to be his BFF after he supposedly helped him justify firing Comey, but unfortunately for Trump, Rosenstein figured out he'd been played and isn't having any more of it.

Now is the time to flee or at least negotiate his surrender.
