Here's the fucking problem...

[Kaos]

I'm going to take pieces of this and break it down for you.

The cascade of controversies buffeting the White House is starting to rankle high-profile Republicans, who are voicing concerns about how the daily drama is impacting the GOP agenda on Capitol Hill.

Just where is this "cascade of controversies" coming from?  New York Times, CNN, Washington Post and anonymous (often debunked) "sources"

"We cannot have this constant chaos and serious questions being raised virtually every single day," Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said. "It is distracting from the ability to work on certain issues like health care reform, and the administration needs to get its house in order."

Where is the "constant chaos" coming from?  Where are these *cough* serious *cough* questions being raised?  Oh, that's right.  From anonymous "sources" which have proven to be wrong or lying before and from... NYT, WP, CNN, MSNBC, etc. 

Rep. Mike Gallagher, a Wisconsin Republican in his first term, tweeted: “For the purpose of transparency, the White House should share a transcript of the meeting with the House and Senate intelligence committees.”

This is bullshit.  Did Obama provide transcripts of every closed door meeting he ever had?  Of course not.  And he was a socialist Islamic.  The President -- yes, even Odumma -- needs to have some autonomy and not have screaming jackals require him to provide reams of paper just to satisfy their bloodlust.  He has to be able to WORK and not spend all his time defending against bogus claims by sending people and paperwork out to debunk their shit. 

I saw CNN in the airport when that one guy came out and said Trump did NOT do whatever it was they were saying he did.   How was it reported?  "Trump spokesman refuses to confirm the Blah, blah, blah, bullshit we made up." 

Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Bob Corker, R-Tenn., said the White House is "in a downward spiral right now” and the Trump administration has “got to figure out a way to come to grips with all that’s happening.”

Cut off the media.  Refuse to answer their questions.  Kick them off the hill.  That's the only way to "come to grips" with it now. 

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., also got in on the Trump bashing and invoked “Watergate.”

I'm beginning to wonder if the Vietnamese were onto something with this clown.  He needs to be muzzled.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., told Bloomberg Live that "we could do with a little less drama from the White House" so lawmakers can focus on tax reform, rolling back red tape and repealing ObamaCare.

The "drama" isn't coming from the White House.  Where is it coming from?  Oh, that's right... the yammering buzzards at CNN, MSNBC, WP, NYT, etc. etc. etc.

The Comey controversy followed a high point for Hill Republicans, after the House revived the struggling ObamaCare repeal bill and passed it, sending it to the Senate. The biggest congressional win before that was Neil Gorsuch's confirmation to the Supreme Court.

You REALLY REALLY REALLY think it's coincidental that this shit comes up as Obamacare is being gutted?

All that said - I think Greg Gutfield or even Mike Rowe type people sum it up nicely when they say this: the truth is usually somewhere in the middle. You'll hear 99% of the brow beating from each extreme. But no one wants to look for any shred of truth. They all have their own agendas. For various reasons.

I think most of what we see is a fabricated, by design circus. It's aimed squarely at Trump. No doubt about that. It was aimed at him before he made one move in office. Some were talking impeachment before he took office.

But I also think he has a piss poor team of people around him to help navigate these waters. Trump lately has made a turnover in his inner circle. Very much like Nixon. To where he pretty much only trusts family and life long confidants. Reagan had sense enough to put seasoned veterans around him like Meese, Schultz, Laffer, Bennet and Baker. Problem with how trumps advisor team is shaped now is that they have no clue how to navigate this mess called D.C.  Most of the advice he's getting and actually listening to is coming from Ivanka and Jarrod. And it's getting the better of him. I'm sure they are nice people but they are as green to this stuff as you and I. He's not stayed on point. We're talking about Russia 24/7. Not policy. This isn't the guy now that was elected or that addressed congress. This is a guy who looks lost now. Befuddled. I would suggest he get his inner circle and advisor teams back the way they were or this will NOT  end good.

Is most of this a bullshit circus? Yes. But he's handling about as bad as you can. He's not making things any better. And also what jarhead said - please take ferkin twitter away from the dude.

But, but, but, Trump only hires the best people. He said so himself.

Does it need to be pure olive oil or will some of that Rachael Ray EVOO-face stuff work too?
