Anyone think to ask why the Washington Post is THE ONLY one that "anonymous sources" are speaking too regarding President Trump,etc.?
False premise.
Fox News, MSNBC, The New York Times, Breitbart, The Blaze, The Daily Caller, et. al have ALL quoted anonymous sources.
NEXT!
some of those though don't print or report unless they know there are facts of evidence. so careful where you walk bubba. you don't know when you might step in something.
O'rly?
Here's Breitbart:
Multiple White House sources confirmed to Breitbart News on Sunday evening that reports earlier on Sunday that Sebastian Gorka, a deputy assistant to President Donald Trump, is somehow leaving the White House are incorrect.
“Incorrect,”
one source told Breitbart News when asked about reports from the Washington Examiner and CNN that Gorka was leaving the White House.
A second White House source with direct knowledge of these matters confirmed to Breitbart News that the reports are wrong.
White House Sources: Reports of Gorka Leaving White House Are ‘Incorrect’ - Breitbart
oh yeah! what's your point?
The point is who were the FEW that spoke freely? Not these guys because they supported the firing!
the quotes are NOT
"conflicting narrative centered on the president’s brewing personal animus toward Comey.
NONE of these were "conflicting"! Words have meaning!!!
Sam Nunberg, a former political adviser to Trump, said the FBI director misunderstood the president:
“James Comey made the mistake of thinking that just because he announced the FBI was investigating possible collusion between the Russian government and the Trump campaign, he had unfettered job security.In my opinion, the president should have fired Comey the day he was sworn in.”
That is NOT a conflicting NARRATIVE! So Nunberg is NOT one of the "30 officials that paint a conflicting view!
Roger Stone:
The men influencing Trump include Roger Stone, a self-proclaimed dirty trickster and longtime Trump confidant who himself has been linked to the FBI’s Russia investigation; former New York mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a Comey critic who has been known to kibbitz about the ousted FBI director with like-minded law enforcement figures; and Keith Schiller, a former New York police officer who functioned as Trump’s chief bodyguard and works in the West Wing as director of Oval Office operations.
“What Comey did to Hillary was disgraceful,” Stone said. “I’m glad Trump fired him over it.”
STONE Presents a "conflicting view" HE FAVORED THE FIRING!!! Where is that Conflcting???
George Lombardi,
a friend of the president and a frequent guest at his Mar-a-Lago Club, said: “This was a long time coming. There had been a lot of arguments back and forth in the White House and during the campaign, a lot of talk about what side of the fence [Comey] was on or if he was above political dirty tricks.”
AGAIN WHERE IS IT A CONFLICTING VIEW?? Lombardi favored the firing... CONFLICTING????
Newt Gingrich:
You can’t be the quarterback of the team if the rest of the team is not in the huddle,” Gingrich said.
“The president has to learn to go a couple steps slower so that everyone can organize around him. When you don’t loop people in, you deprive yourself of all of the opportunities available to a president of the United States.”
Gingrich favored the firing! Where is the CONFLICTING THERE???
See you didn't read the article close enough!
Again tell me who the POST quoted had CONFLICTING narrative ? WHICH of the four above didn't think firing Comey was right? That is what a "conflicting"
narrative is.
NOW tell me again WHO among the 30 WH did NOT ask for anonymity and were NOT in agreement with Trump?
Who were they???
