Trump saying Trey Gowdy not able to start until January so will see............

Hopefully, we will not see him in the oval office until January.

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/playbook/2019/10/11/the-drama-behind-trumps-outreach-to-trey-gowdy-487408


........................NEW … People close to President DONALD TRUMP tell us that TREY GOWDY’S ascendance into the president’s circle is an attempt to supplant RUDY GIULIANI as a presence on cable television and Sunday shows. One person close to Trump said White House aides have been “pulling their hair out” every time Rudy opens his mouth on TV.

-- BUT … TRUMP said before departing for Minneapolis on Thursday that “Trey Gowdy can't start until sometime after January because of the lobbying rules and regulations. So, I don't know. So, we'll have to see.”



ALL THE PRESIDENT’S LAWYERS .... YAHOO’S HUNTER WALKER: “‘Trey is a joke among us’: Gowdy seen as divisive addition to Trump’s legal team”: “‘He’s not on the team. Trey Gowdy is not on the team. Who told you Trey Gowdy? Not to my knowledge, not to Rudy’s knowledge, not Joe’s knowledge,’ said [Giuliani associate Victoria] Toensing, who had not heard of the move at the time of her interview with Yahoo News on Wednesday morning. ‘I have to check that with Rudy because that would be a joke, because we all don’t think much of him,’ she said of Gowdy, adding, ‘Are you kidding? ... Trey is a joke among us.’” Yahoo

TODAY IN RUDY …

and the thought was that either the impeachment votes would have already happened before then and it would be too late OR the process would have already been well underway before he was able to officially start.

like Gym Jordan.... literally foaming at the mouth and turning red. His performance art can be breathtaking to say the least. He showed his street cred for Drumpf last year during his hearing about Peter Strzok (a Drumpf nemesis) regarding Strzok's text messages. It got to the point where NJ. congresswoman Bonnie Coleman had had enough and erupted when his time had long been up during one part of the hearing, exclaiming with exasperation "This is NOT Benghazi!".

The FOX crowd can't stand Gowdy, and it feeds the narrative: the only reason Hillary is a free woman is because Gowdy is a shitty prosecutor. It gives the conspiracy theory crowd an excuse to keep believing that Hillary is guilty in spite of the thousands of manhours invested in vain in bringing her down.

Trump is lying.
Trunp is a liar.

And I think Gowdy may rethink getting stained by him. Because odds are good that Gowdy could make a statement to the press and the next day Trump totally refute what was said
