Trump's retaliations have begun.

Photo: Andrew Caballero-Reynolds/AFP via Getty Images Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman, whose subpoenaed testimony in the House impeachment inquiry enraged President Trump and his allies, has been fired from his job at the National Security Council, as has U.S.

The White House hasn’t publicly explained why the Vindman brothers or Sondland were fired, but it’s hardly a mystery. Trump has publicly complained about Sondland and Alexander Vindman ever since they testified, and the Trump team has all but released a movie trailer for the president’s post-impeachment retaliation campaign.

Now that Senate Republicans have finished off Trump’s impeachment, the president is finishing off anyone who appeared disloyal during the process. On Monday, Vanity Fair’s Gabriel Sherman reported that a GOP source had told him, “Trump has an enemies list that is growing by the day” and includes both Democratic and Republican officials. During a long, rambling prayer-breakfast screed on Thursday, Trump made clear that he planned to take revenge on everyone he could for his impeachment.

This is akin to The Godfather’s ending where Michael Corleone exterminated his enemies in a single, premeditated killing spree to avenge for betrayals. The difference is that The Godfather is a brilliant work of cinematic fiction while Trump is a living, national nightmare.

And why should he keep him Do you keep your enemies around What do you think would happen? Just like he didn’t shake SpeakerPelosi hand ! Why should he She tried to take him down And failed with the impeachment sham !!

Wow that's a surprise, he usually doesn't hold grudges... hahaha

Heads on a pike.

That's fine. The house has more than enough ammo to do another investigation and tack on more articles. The man was best friends with Epstein for 20 years. There more stuff out there on this dirtbag.

Bets on who is next?

Trump touts firing James Comey, says it helped impeachment survival'Had I not fired James Comey—who was a disaster, by the way—it's possible I wouldn't even be standing here right now,' the president told members of his administration and Republican lawmakers gathered at the White House about his former FBI director. Why are we still talking about Comey? Trump never learns from his mistakes because he's incapable of acknowledging that he ever makes them. What's crazy is that he's also convinced his base of morons that everything he does is perfect. Even right to end admitting he broke law but we can't go off his words or common sense
