This guy is a hoot. Pleased to see that Wallace presented the actual facts to him, quite shocking to see anything like that on Fox News. Mulvaney is history, but Trump has a problem - very few left that are willing to work in his Administration. He needs someone with the skillsets of a Mafia lawyer, and none of those guys have any interest in jumping aboard this sinking ship.

Maybe his real lawyer Jay S. could take him down a legal path.

Seems he has a lot of experience handling Trump and his nutty ideas.

Sekulow would be great.

Still remember that goofy interview where he argued with himself then admitted he had no way of knowing what the hell he was talking about.

I loved the first statement about Mulvaney from Jay S.

The Presidents legal team was not involved with that statement

Talk about covering the butt.

Since the media is reporting that tRump is anxious to get rid of Mulvaney, my bet is that he'll hang around for awhile.

Just like Tillerson did.

tRump likes to do little things like that to show that HE is "in charge" and not a "media puppet."

After all, he prefers puppetry of a different sort.

Another opps movement where the truth comes out.

Mulvaney will be gone soon.
I'm surprised he isn't gone already. Trump will say, "Mick Mulvaney has been a wonderful member of my staff, blah, blah, blah. We will miss him very much (not.)" Then Trump will replace him with another bobbleheaded Rudy Giuliani like yes man.

One problem may be this: if you fire your COS, you must have another one waiting to take over.



I would bet that Mr. Trump is finding it difficult for someone to take on such a difficult job. Indeed, I would not be surprised if he reached out to Jim Jordan or Matt Gaetz.

That isn't what he said. That is what deceitful people are saying he said.

“Can I see how people took that the wrong way? Absolutely,” Mulvaney later said in the interview. “But I never said there was a quid pro quo because there isn’t.”
“Here is what I said,” continued Mulvaney. “There were two reasons that we held up the aid, the first one was the rampant corruption in Ukraine. Ukraine is so bad, that in 2014 Congress passed a law requiring us to make sure that corruption was moving in the right direction. Corruption is a big deal everybody knows it. The President was also concerned about whether or not other nations, specifically European nations, were helping with foreign aid Ukraine as well.”

nobody cares except those that suffer from TDS. Nobody's voting for Liz Warren to spite Trump. They would just be spiting themselves.
