    This thread refers to segment beginning at the 4:30 mark.

    “It absolutely happened. And instead of saying that to me, they should’ve been saying that to the president, not asking me to join them on their sidebar plan. It should’ve been, ‘Go tell the president what your differences are, and quit if you don’t like what he’s doing.’ But to undermine a president is really a very dangerous thing. And it goes against the Constitution, and it goes against what the American people want. And it was offensive.”

    The latest outrage is based the charge that Trump went outside of established procedures.

    His biggest detractors have no hesitation with going outside of proper procedures themselves, however.

    This is just another example of the bureaucracy working to undermine the will of the American voter.

    Sounds like folks who work for Trump don’t think he is cut out for the job.

    Seems like a lot of folks that work for Pompeo feel the same way. :)
    Maybe it's a virus.

    It sounds like people who work for us aren't doing what we tell them to do.

    Or maybe they believe in their oath of office.

    As Haley pointed out, the honest thing for them to do if they disagree with Trump's policies would be to quit.

    Agreed. Its underhanded to plot against him like they apparently did.

    If they take an oath of office, they're not following it.

    Our international relations are directed by elected officials. The duty of the bureaucrats is to implement the agenda that the people voted for. Those bureaucrats do not have the authority to override the choice that the voters have made...

    Even if it's a wrong choice.

    We, the people, are the rulers of this country. If we surrender our rightful authority to an unelected bureaucracy, we have given up the entire foundation of our nation

    Sounds like Globalists and the NWO folks don't like an outsider like Trump changing things.

    BFD. They are entitled to their opinions, but that's it.

    Neither was Obama but his detractors had the class and decorum. To disagree properly.

    Trump hired them - sounds like Trump is a crappy judge of employees. Omarosa, The Mooch. Trump should be impeached just for hiring them - absolute proof he's out of his mind.

    If you say so. I think it is just reasonable people that realize what an abject ****ing idiot the president is, and how he has the mortality of the porn stars he ****s.

    I'm not blaming Obama for anything. Just saying people in the Obama administration who disagreed with him had more class thsn the creeps surrounding Trump.
    Has nothing to do with either president..

    The creeps that Trump hired.

    There are only two options here.
    Trump has poor judgement and hires creeps.
    Or Trump hires "the best people" and they come to realize there is something fundamentally wrong with Trump.

    Or they were people left over from the previous admin.

    most likely a little bit of each option.
