Conservative blogger Erick Erickson on Tuesday morning made a shocking claim: Namely, that the person inside the White House who leaked the latest Russia bombshell was at one time an ardent supporter of President Trump. “I know one of the sources,” Erickson writes. “And the source is solidly supportive of President Trump, or at least has been and was during Campaign 2016.”

So why would a Trump supporter leak a damaging story about the president to multiple news organizations? According to Erickson, it’s the only way to get Trump to change his behavior.

“The President will not take any internal criticism, no matter how politely it is given,” Erickson explains. “He does not want advice, cannot be corrected, and is too insecure to see any constructive feedback as anything other than an attack. So some of the sources are left with no other option but to go to the media, leak the story, and hope that the intense blowback gives the President a swift kick in the butt.”

Additionally, Erickson’s source claims that “what the President did is actually far worse than what is being reported” and that “the president does not seem to realize or appreciate that his bragging can undermine relationships with our allies and with human intelligence sources.”

1. Dt's pathological problems render this treatment solution ineffective.

He's a 70 year old pathologically lying narcissist. He can't change his behavior.

However, it report give ammunition to those who can eventually render him "harmless", if that is possible.

10. He can't and he won't

Just wait until a crisis breaks out.

Cheeto Cancer will have minutes to decide what to do and he WILL NOT listen to anyone but his own internal demon that has guided him for 70 damn years!

Game over then you fucking republicans that refuse to stop this senile, narcissist from destroying this country!

3. Pence as Deep Throat

[Me.]

5. Don't Think So

Pence was never a solid supporter, just an opportunist who thinks if he holds on long enough he'll be pres. I'm betting on it being Kushner.

4. Was or is?

8. The last sentence of the first paragraph...

“And the source is solidly supportive of President Trump, or at least has been and was during Campaign 2016.”

9. More likely they now realize Trump is insane and there is no way to stop him unless he or she gives

up enough evidence for impeachment.
