Gemein,
gemein, gemein, es ist erst ein paar Stunden her, daß ich Trump lobte und mich
für seine grandiose Personalpolitik bedankte, Freude über den neuen
Kommunikationschef äußerte.
(…..) Bis vor zehn Tagen erschien es mir schlicht
und ergreifend unvorstellbar, daß die Pressestelle des Weißen Hauses schlechter
zu führen wäre als mit Spicer und Huckabee-Sanders, die logen,
Unverschämtheiten von sich gaben, mies informiert waren, sich nicht ausdrücken
konnten, Fragen nicht beantworteten, die Kameras abstellten, Journalisten ausschlossen
und sich sogar mit vollen Hosen in einem Busch verstecken.
Ist
schlechtere Öffentlichkeitsarbeit überhaupt möglich? Ich hätte gedacht, nein,
und wünschte mir schon deswegen ein Verbleiben Spicers in seinem Job. Umso mehr
wäre die Trump-Regierung diskreditiert.
Aber
dann kam Scaramucci und erreichte mühelos ein „new low“. (….)
Ein
toller Kerl, der Mooch. Nicht nur, daß er in für das mächtigste Amt der Welt
angemessenen Genitalsprache fluchte, sondern seine gesamte Vita erscheint
direkt aus der Feder eines Comedy-Autoren zu stammen.
Kaum in
seinem Traumjob angekommen, reichte seine Frau die Scheidung ein.
[…..]
Die Frau von Anthony Scaramucci, dem
Kommunikationschef im Weißen Haus, hat offenbar die Scheidung eingereicht.
Grund für die Trennung sei, dass die 38-jährige Deidre Ball mit dem extremen
politischen Ehrgeiz ihres Mannes nicht mehr klar gekommen sei, berichtet
das Medium „Page Six“ unter Berufung auf
mehrere anonyme Quellen. Scaramucci sei wie besessen darauf gewesen, einen
Posten im Team von Präsident Trump zu bekommen. [….]

Und nun
nimmt ihn Showmaster Trump gleich wieder aus dem Programm. So ein Jammer.
[…..] President
Trump on Monday removed Anthony Scaramucci from his position as communications
director, the White House announced, ousting him just days after Mr. Scaramucci
unloaded a crude verbal tirade against other senior members of the president’s
senior staff.
“Anthony Scaramucci will be leaving his role as White House
Communications Director,” Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press
secretary, said in a statement. “Mr. Scaramucci felt it was best to give Chief
of Staff John Kelly a clean slate and the ability to build his own team. We
wish him all the best.”
Mr. Scaramucci’s abrupt removal came just 10 days after the wealthy New
York financier was brought on to the West Wing staff, a move that convulsed an
already chaotic White House and led to the departures of Sean Spicer, the
former press secretary, and Reince Priebus, the president’s first chief of
staff. [….]
So geht
Konservatismus in Amerika.
„Trump Isn't an Aberration—He's the Logical Conclusion of 40 Years of
Conservative Lies”
Trump
ist so geistesgestört, daß auch die GOPer in Washington über „Fritzing out“ spekulieren.
[….] Robert
Reich:
This morning
I phoned my friend, a former Republican member of Congress.
Me: What's going on? Seems like the White House is imploding, and
Republicans are going down with the ship.
Him (chuckling): We’re officially a banana republic.
Me: Seriously, what are you hearing from your former colleagues on the
Hill?
Him: They’re convinced Trump is out of his gourd.
Me: So what are they going to do about it?
Him: Remember what I told you at the start of this circus? They planned
to use Trump’s antics for cover, to get done what they most wanted – big tax
cuts, rollbacks of regulations, especially financial. They’d work with Pence
behind the scenes and forget the crazy uncle in the attic.
Me: Yeah.
Him: Well, I’m hearing a different story now. Stuff with Sessions is
pissing them off. And now Trump's hired that horse’s ass Scaramucci -- a
communications director who talks dirty on CNN! Plus Trump’s numbers are in
freefall. They think he’s gonna hurt them in ’18 and ’20.
Me: So what’s the plan?
Him: They want him outa there.
Me: Really? Impeachment?
Him: Doubt it, unless Mueller comes up with a smoking gun.
Me: Or if he fires Mueller.
Him: Not gonna happen.
Me: So how do they get him out?
Him: Put someone else up in ’20. Lots of maneuvering already. Pence,
obviously. Cruz thinks he has a shot.
Me: But that won’t help them in the midterms. What’s the plan before
then?
Him: Lots think he’s fritzing out.
Me: Fritzing out?
Him: Going totally bananas. Paranoia. You want to know why he fired
Priebus, wants Sessions out, and is now gunning for Tillerson?
Me: He wants to shake things up?
Him (chuckling): No. The way I hear it, he thinks they’ve been plotting
against him.
Me: What do you mean?
Him: Twenty-fifth amendment! Read it! A Cabinet can get rid of a
president who’s nuts. Trump thinks they’ve been preparing a palace coup. So one
by one, he’s firing them.
Me: I find it hard to believe they’re plotting against him.
Him: Of course not! It’s ludicrous. Sessions is a loyal lapdog.
Tillerson doesn't know where the bathroom is. That’s my point. Trump is
fritzing out. Having manic delusions. He’s actually going nuts.
Me: And?
Him: Well, it’s downright dangerous.
Me: Yeah, but that still doesn’t tell me what Republicans are planning
to do about it.
Him: Look. How long do you think it will be before everyone in
Washington knows he’s flipping out? I don’t mean just weird. I mean really off
his rocker.
Me: I don’t know.
Him: No all that long.
Me: So what are you telling me?
Him: They don’t have to plot against him. It will be obvious to everyone
that he’s got to go. That’s where the twenty-fifth amendment really does comes
in.
Me: So you think…
Him: Who knows? But he’s losing it fast. My betting is he’s out of
office before the midterms. And Pence is president. […..]
Berserker
Trump verbraucht eine Menge Personal.
In sechs
Monaten rollten schon einige Köpfe:
Anthony Scaramucci, Reince Priebus, Jeff Sessions (hängt noch am seidenen
Faden), Sean Spicer, James Comey, Justizministerin Sally Yates, Michael Flynn,
Bundesstaatsanwalt Preet Bharara und Angella Reid, die Organisationschefin im
Weißen Haus wurden gegangen.
Mal
sehen, wer als nächstes fliegt.
Vielleicht
mal wieder jemand aus der Familie; nachdem schon Donnie Jr. unter den Bus
geworfen wurde.
