The sacrifices he talked about were his own
A guy with broad experience in intelligence comments on Trump’s visit to the CIA:
President Trump at the CIA was appalling.
The sacrifices he talked about were his own: mistreatment by the “dishonest” media; self-glorification (“Trust me, I’m like a smart person”); the size of his inaugural crowd (“It looked like a million, a million and a half people” on the Mall) (which isn’t true); his narcissistic boasting of being on the cover of Time magazine.
Unfocused, except on himself. Untruthful, except perhaps acknowledging where he was. And completely at sea as to why on earth he was there. Except to fish for compliments, and the kind of admiration he craves like an attention-starved child. And maybe to draw attention away from the massive Women’s March on Washington crowd dominating our nation’s capital.
In short he’s not doing well so far. Impeachment may happen sooner than we think.
The only reason I don’t think he’ll be impeached (and convicted) is because nothing that makes sense has happened thus far…
Robert Reich in a public comment on Facebook:
Yes, that sounds plausible.
How noble of them to express anonymous disapproval of him while they stand by and let him plunder America’s poorest! How brave of them to find their courage only after he has given them the things they want from him!
