Wednesday was a historic low point for our country — or at least it was a signal to the American people that we were already at a low point.
ICYMI, The New York Times released an op-ed written by a high ranking official in Donald Trump‘s administration who is secretly resisting the President’s “more misguided impulses” which tend to be “un-Democratic.”
This secret resister says several higher-ups are working hard to keep Trump from destroying the country.

The President has been described as “volcanic” after the release — so mad in fact he can’t decide on a coherent strategy.
In the space of 2 tweets he called the act all-caps TREASON*, demanded the Times turn over the official’s name, and said the whole thing was made up.
TREASON?

Does the so-called “Senior Administration Official” really exist, or is it just the Failing New York Times with another phony source? If the GUTLESS anonymous person does indeed exist, the Times must, for National Security purposes, turn him/her over to government at once!

*It’s not treason btw. Treason is aiding a foreign power against the interest of the United States. You know, like Trump is accused of doing.
The White House obviously didn’t get the memo that they were supposed to use the old fake news defense on this one.
Probably because they know everything written in the article is true.
This was the official statement released by Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders:
“The individual behind this piece has chosen to deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States. He is not putting country first, but putting himself and his ego ahead of the will of the American people. This coward should do the right thing and resign.”
Nor did Melania, who released a statement Thursday morning saying the same:

Yeah, they definitely know this is a real person. (But WHICH real person?)
The important thing for us to know, as the op-ed says, is that there are adults in the room.
But the President of the United States of America is not one of them.
And he needs to be removed.
