For two years, it has been a game of they said, he says. Now in year three, President Trump is still openly contradicting his top officials.

window.havePowaBoot=true; By JM Rieger JM Rieger Video editor for The Fix Email Bio Follow February 26 at 3:17 PM Twice in two days last weekend, President Trump did something that has become a trademark of his presidency: He openly contradicted top officials in his administration. After U.S. Trade Representative Robert E. Lighthizer said that March 1 was a “hard deadline” for reaching a trade deal with China, Trump extended the talk deadline.

troops out of Syria immediately. Then his national security adviser said that wasn’t happening. Customs and Border Protection reported that 90 percent of heroin seized along the border came through ports of entry in fiscal 2018.

He's not, that's why WaPo and CNN are making it up.

Loving these liberal meltdowns lmao.

Idiot in Chief

Eight years of Obama Hard to find bad to read Two years of Trump Stories stacked, nose bleed A deplorable political bias Flat lies disguised as news Turning truth on its head Reporting your rear end views … … … … … … … … … … …

Washington post even the Philippines calls you guys liars and fake news.

Not a Genius

This attacker has not yet been arrested or charged with a crime A hate crime was committed on campus at UC Berkeley and the attacker walks free If the attacker was wearing a MAGA hat there would have been a nationwide manhunt for him Outrage!

Except Trump was right in this case. His administration needs to have pre-meetings with him so they can all get on the same page prior to these public meetings.

What I find most worrisome is that no one, not one, will take a stand & say, 'you're wrong, sir.' Instead, they continue to move the goalposts so he can be 'correct' You can disagree w your superior. I guess w Drumpf, disagreement==disloyalty==ground for removal from position.

Trump: OK, I threw Michael Cohen under the bus, end of story, right? Cohen: Uh, not quite, boss, I have the goods and the guts to fight back, unlike the rest of the fraidy-cats you've demolished. Stay tuned. Hasta La Vista, Baby!

When will WaPo learn it's lesson for spewing their Anti-America rhetoric? Hoping the Sandman lawsuit puts them out of business. EnemyOfThePeople

Your story assumes that trump has an administration. He doesn’t, he’s the head of a criminal enterprise. That’s all he knows.....

Matt Gaetz could have gotten 20 years for violating US code, Trump Trump: 'I disagree. He can say whatever he wants'. Congress: '25th Amendent, sir' Trump: 'I disagree! I DISAGREE! 😭😭' (as he throws a tantrum fit)

I've worked with people like this before. Everybody in the company is an idiot and if I had the time, I'd do the job myself.

Some highlights:

'I'm President. You're not.' That's how it works Wapo. Tell Langley while you're at it.
