(80,708 posts)I remember Fitzmas pretty well, and yeah.
That said, it's also worth mentioning how incredibly quick the wheels have come off the bus with this White House. And the increasingly erratic behavior of the people involved indicates to me that there seems to be some actual shit going down.
My gut feeling is, whether Mensch and co. are just making shit up for twitter churn or not, we're probably not looking at a nothingburger, either. I could be wrong, I could always be wrong--
but it's also worth noting that even with the institutional backing of the GOP (for now) these guys aren't Bush and Cheney. Bush and, more precisely Cheney had experience manipulating the levers of power and government. They wouldn't have put someone like Flynn up there for National Security Advisor.
And team Trump has already managed to alienate, by many accounts, large swaths of both the intelligence and federal law enforcement communities.
