Conservative commentator: 'A lot of Republicans' starting to think Trump won't serve out his term

[rightwinger]

Republicans have always known Trump is going down

They are just coming out

 

[CrusaderFrank]

The fan and the feces are becoming very familiar with each other in Trumpland.

Donald Trump's layers of dirt are being laid bare revealing more dirt under the dirt.

Donald Trump will rue the day he decided to run for POTUS because he has so much he has tried to hide from investigators and the public which is now exposed to the world.

Donald Trump is so toxic nobody wants to take up his job offers.

Donald Trump will serve two terms. One in office and one in jail.

'A LOT OF REPUBLICANS' STARTING TO THINK TRUMP WON'T SERVE OUT HIS TERM, CONSERVATIVE COMMENTATOR SAYS
BY JASON LEMON ON 12/9/18 AT 9:01 AM

Many GOP leaders and politicians have started to question whether President Donald Trump will serve out his entire term, conservative commentator David Brooks has said.

The right-leaning pundit, who is currently a columnist for The New York Times, pointed out that there is growing uncertainty among Republicans over Trump’s future during an interview with PBS News Hour . Brooks explained that politician’s from the president’s party have started to see his administration as losing “authority” and “failing.”

Appearing alongside liberal political commentator Mark Shields, Brooks said it seems like “a lot of Republicans are looking at this White House, and they’re seeing an administration under a lot of judicial and legal threat and a lot under political threat.”

“What they call the membrane around Trump is failing, and the membrane is the group of people they put around Trump to protect him from himself,” the columnist said. “And over the years, the Hope Hickses of the world, and maybe in the next few days the John Kellys of the world are going and gone, and so you see a Trump unprotected from himself.”

Hicks formerly served as the White House Director of Communications until she announced her resignation earlier. She revealed the decision after she told the House Intelligence Committee that she sometimes told “white lies” in her work for the Trump administration. The president’s Chief of Staff John Kelly, who had been credited with establishing some order in a chaotic White House, will leave his position at the end of the year.
Brooks suggested that Republican lawmakers no longer think that Trump is necessarily their candidate in 2020.

“You’re beginning to see a lot of Republicans who are looking seriously at 2019, with a lot of Fridays like this one, and Trump really hurting himself, and maybe not serving out the term,” he said.

A sentencing memo by federal prosecutors from the Southern District of New York revealed on Friday that Trump is alleged to have participated in federal crimes when he directed his former personal attorney Michael Cohen to commit campaign finance violations by paying off two women during his 2016 campaign. The document, which references Trump as “Individual 1,” says that the president led the criminal conspiracy to pay off Stormy Daniels and Karen McDuggal to keep their alleged extramarital affairs with him a secret.
“There’s more fear, worry, almost mania in the White House,” Brooks said in his interview with News Hour . “They feel all the safety guard rails coming out,” he explained. “They really don’t know what’s going to happen.” ...

Who was this "Conservative" commentator?

David Brooks!

LOLOL!!

OMG!!!

Get ready for Pence! I welcome our new Evangelistic president!

Mike Pence is a total stooge and enabler of Donald Trump's crimes.

Pence will be implicated in the Russian collusion.

....and then Hillary becomes President

 

[Claudette]

Current options

Trump is impeached in house and gets a pass in the Senate

Charges are so severe that even Republicans agree to impeach

Trump resigns

Dream on Winger.

Trump has little chance of anything else

You think this stuff will just go away?

Yes. I do.

 

[airplanemechanic]

Trump has not built many alliances within his party

When push comes to shove, I think they dump him or else take the party down with him

Because that's not his job. His job is to work for the American people. Not suck up to politicians for political favors.

He's the first president in history who actually does what he says and says what he does. He's not a politician, he's a businessman. And he's got enough money where he can't be bought by any special interest groups and that is driving politicians crazy.

Pence will round up all the queers and put them on an island. That will cut down the democrats by half or more.

Gotta love it when a hack suddenly agrees with someone they disagree with everything else about.

David Brooks is a fucking shill and the sort of quasi conservative that leftists all love to hold up.
He's delivered his anti Trump message and served his purpose. Now back into the cupboard.

I like him. He's smart, but I don't know how good he is at prophesy. He knows his stuff though.

Brooks has frequently expressed admiration for President Barack Obama.
In regard to the 2016 election, Brooks spoke in support of Hillary Clinton, applauding her ability to be "competent" and "normal" in comparison to her Republican counterpart, Donald Trump.[71][72] In addition, Brooks noted that he believed Clinton would eventually be victorious in the election, as he foresaw that the general American public would become "sick of" Trump.[71][72]

When discussing the political emergence of Trump, Brooks has been strong in his critiques of the candidate, most notably by authoring a New York Times op-ed he titled "No, Not Trump, Not Ever". In this piece, Brooks attacked Trump by arguing he is "epically unprepared to be president" and by pointing out Trump's "steady obliviousness to accuracy"
AND he works for the ANTI Trump NYT and The Atlantic...this guy is NOT a conservative by ANY stretch of the imagination. Well maybe leftists imaginations.

He's on PBS news every Friday and I've followed some of his columns. He IS a conservative. You are confusing conservative with supporting Trump, and those are two very different things.

This is old news dressed up to be new stuff.
You see, prosecutors say alot of shit that isn't true.
You cannot claim in court that paying off hookers is a crime.
And what is this story about?
It's an attempt to coverup the fact that Bill and Hillary are in deep trouble. Clinton Foundation CFO Talks To Investigators As Walls Cave In On Bill and Hillary
It doesn't matter if Cohen lies about it....he needs proof and he doesn't have any.

There's about to be a shift in the winds here soon. MSM is going to hate it.

Are you saying you think the Clintons will get in trouble and overtake Trump’s limelight?

 

[OldLady]

You know what's funny? These fuckers are so wrapped up in the Trump hate, they don't realize Trump is mild compared to Pence. Pence ..LMAO..!

He'll have these fuckers..LMAO!

fuck lemme.. Pence will have them spontaneously combusting and shit!

Pence is his lucky charm! Keeps Trump in office and is his ''Stay out of Jail'' free card, cuz no one wants Pence!

Why do people keep saying that? I'd prefer Pence any day of the week. So what if he's a creepy fundie? He's quiet, he's decent, he'll do what the generals tell him. He could definitely bring the decade to a close with a quiet hum.

Pence’s beliefs are more extreme than Trump’s, which one would think would freak the left out. I’m not convinced the lot of them are capable of thinking that far ahead...

I had the impression that Pence distinguishes between his personal beliefs and what he tries to impose on the nation as legislation. I could be wrong.

Excuse you...not only can that be claimed, Cohen was just found guilty of it (a felony) and federal prosecutors just stated in a court filing that the president directed him to commit this felony.

Any belief is more extreme than Trump's, because Trump doesn't have any beliefs.
