David Frum, on Ari's show, said that things would get worse in the White House...

...and the West Wing.

Because everyone will be paranoid and looking behind them. The environment could become unbearable.

Unless this anonymous person that wrote the op-ed comes forward, nobody in the West Wing will trust anyone they are working with.

Do you think anyone will be fired before this weekend?

What about the NY Times? Do you think they were wrong to publish this piece anonymously? Should they have required the author to identify themselves?

in my opinion.

But the anonymous writer should take it to the American people.

and that Trump wants to.

And when I say "purged" I mean exterminated. From the face of the Earth.

one of these huge volcanic temper tantrums that people in this administration keep "leaking" about. To see him become unhinged and totally humiliated ... I want to see that before he is destroyed.
