He should've known better than to tell the truth about someone who regards the truth being told about him in the same way Dracula regards sunshine.

It's not about calling him out. It's about these Deep Staters assuming they are entitled to make policy and not carrying out Trump's policy. Trump has the right to make policy. They don't. These people admitted to subversive behavior on national television.

So, he was smart enough to know, he could buy his way into sabotage, just like foreign governments do.
Skolkovo & Uranium One, were just like that. Give them US Uranium & military technology, for a price.

1 million, of the 11 million he got from the Pentagon, was in the deal.
They all know each other, and all have something to hide.

He needs to keep draining the corrupt swamp. Everyone knew he would do that as he should. Who the heck would want to work with their enemy? Can't be trusted as Gordon is in the currupt establishment and Trump continues to be an outsider.

Glad he is out of there. Hope he keeps getting rid of the bad people.

Yep. That's exactly the problem that needs to be remedied. Career bureaucrats do not get to make policy or work to undermine POTUS's policy. End of discussion. That's why Trump needs to continue draining the swamp.

He hired the guy, why would he fire him? Trump never makes mistakes, just ask him. All that's left in the swamp are the defective sycophants that Trump put there.

Weak.
The assumption is Trump must keep whoever he hires, because "he never makes mistakes". But that flies in the face of "Trump never admits to mistakes".


Crats got nuthin' but bumper sticker slogans.

That's a pretty lame defense of dear leader.

There is no "dear leader." There's only a Constitutionally elected POTUS.
