They were. But on their own merits, perhaps?

cozietoesie · 14/05/2017 15:08

I think that what I'm feeling, Lweji, is that while it may not be the better answer in the longer term, to screw the GOP to appointing an SP might be more realistic - and would send one heck of a message out. 'Events', though............

Let's see, eh? Wink

Gingrich urges Trump to cancel daily press briefings: "Close down the press room" t.co/9CCMmqyefI?amp=1

Does anyone know if a Special Prosecutor and a Commission could co-exist?

That Russian tweet clearly ignores that the WH is very different from Trump.

Under Dana Boente? When were they issued?

""Donald Trump is not the chief entertainer of the United States. He's not the chief wrestling match with the elite media. He is the president of the United States," Gingrich told host Sean Hannity"

Has Gringrich been asleep all this time? The problem is not how others view Trump is how Trump behaves.

GingerIvy · 14/05/2017 15:25

Excellent.

My unexpurgated view of Gingrich would likely breach Talk Guidelines.

cozietoesie · 14/05/2017 15:28

Could they 'co-exist'? Legally, I just don't know. Practically, I'd say 'not'.

Lweji · 14/05/2017 15:36

Not sure Ryan considered properly this visit to a Harlem school.

I think that's the danger. The best option should be chosen.

cozietoesie · 14/05/2017 15:39

I agree in theory - but what if you stand no chance of getting it?

Roussette · 14/05/2017 15:40

Oh dear.... DT doesn't get enough praise from his staff and is getting angry. Big fat baby.

Trump is at his VA golf club; his 21st golf course visit & 34th visit to a Trump private business property since taking office 16 weeks ago

It's the 15th weekend in a row that President Trump has spent time at a Trump business property (FL/VA/NJ golf clubs, DC hotel, Mar-a-Lago)

cozietoesie · 14/05/2017 15:44

Well, Roussette. With most people, I'd say ' He's not in a position to so he won't' - but with 45? He seems to have the nous of a carrot stick.

My guess for this week:
Trump will #FireSpicer & #FireSessions while mumbling "I only do the best—most luxurious massacres you'll ever see"

Lweji · 14/05/2017 15:46

Trump should be careful with shake ups. Chances are the next batch will be back to the "can't find the light switches stage"..

He should indeed be careful with shake-ups The trouble - for him - is that he thinks he's managed it fine up to now. (Apart from a few party-poopers letting him down.) You have to remember the sheer magnitude of this person's ego.

Roussette · 14/05/2017 15:57

Oh yes Lweji forgot that light switch 'incident' Grin

Given the sniping DT is doing about Spice behind his back, where the hell is Spicey's backbone? Why doesn't he take the upper ground and quit? Just before a press conference and give an enigmatic reason. Why are staff so loyal to DT? (apart from wanting to line their pockets). He's a shit 'boss'
