re: nytimes op-ed -- the question on my mind is not "who", but "why"? [View all]
i'm not saying it's a false flag operation, but that would be an easier answer to the "why" question.
if someone (donnie himself or some true believer) wanted to stoke the battle against the free press, the new york times in particular, this might be a way to do that.
if they wanted to instigate a purge within the white house because they know there are people there insufficiently loyal to donnie personally (after omarosa, it's be widely suggested that many more people have been recording conversations, e.g.) then this would be a great way to get that going, as appears to already be starting.
but if someone was genuinely part of "the resistance", why would they expose their operation, even if anonymously? surely they would have to expect donnie to react in ways that would make "resisting" more difficult.
were they desperate to recruit more resisters?
were they just trying to plant a marker so after the administration explodes in crisis, they could later say, hey, i tried to protect the nation?
seriously, regardless of who it was, *why* would they have revealed it?
