Opinion: Trump’s post-report scrap with former White House counsel Don McGahn shows how the President is so often his own worst enemy

President Trump should be savoring the end of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation with no charges of collusion or obstruction of justice, but as ever he can’t stand prosperity. His post-report scrap with former White House counsel Don McGahn shows how this President is so often his own worst enemy.

As part of his obstruction “analysis,” Mr. Mueller recounts that in June 2017 Mr. Trump asked Mr. McGahn to ask Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to say Mr. Mueller had conflicts of interest and couldn’t remain as...

Nice try WSJ.

Love it

Just a reminder that he'll throw anyone to the dogs at the slightest indication they strayed off his leash, regardless if that was to even save him from himself. He has loyalty to one person only, and that;s the one staring back at him when he's applying his fake sun tan.

You said ‘so often’, you meant ‘usually’.

I don’t normally agree with editorials but this is a perfect description of the OrangeMonster. Thank you! “So much of Mr. Trump’s dishonesty seems to flow from his ego, which can tolerate no slight and no suggestion that he is capable of mistakes like the rest of us.”

'...firing Mr. Mueller would have made the President look guilty when we now know he wasn’t.' Did your Ed. Board even read the Mueller report? He is not exonerated of obstruction. There are multiple examples of obstructive actions.

Opinion: Trump’s post-report scrap with former White House counsel Don McGahn shows how the President is so often acts fascist turning on those who serve at his pleasure.

Trump’s desperation is showing.

I thought attorney client privilege violation was grounds for disbarment?

Pretty much all of his pain is self inflicted. It's a dangerous mix of incompetence moral bankruptcy

Opinion | Why is Trump raging again? Because Don McGahn will further expose his corruption.Trump reportedly fears that his former White House counsel could help build the case for impeachment. Wapo opinion pieces are now baseless hypothetical explanations for things trump does. Why did trump have a bagel this morn? Because he hates Africans. Why did he celebrate Easter? To punish Muslims. Is a gong show. He's an attention seeking whore. He doesn't care if it's good/bad. He wants us to revolve around him so he can spin his tale & incite his base to either cheering him or booing everyone else. It's how he will win again if we don't just impeach his ass while focusing on the issues.
