Ignoring whether you agree or don't agree with a policy change, the timing is beyond jacked up, the reasoning provided is a little faulty, and the delivery method is perhaps the least professional way of conveying information. So in short, textbook Trumpin'.

Okay, he's baiting the base for real. Something bad is coming down the pipe for him to go all caps, double down, balls deep into the 1st Amendment like this.

The twitter-reporters have been tweeting all week that something is dropping in the near future. (Then again they've been saying that since March) Claude Taylor has hinted that it has something to do with Trumps modeling agency and underage girls.

pries just got pushed out and scaramucci's wife just filed for divorce after 3 years !! REALITY TV PRESIDENT !!
Preibus is getting the boot because he's the only person that Trump can "fire" after the healthcare debacle. Honestly, Trump was just looking for an excuse anyway.

And now watch. I'm sure that the divorce will be cited as the reason why the "Mooch" (who willingly calls themselves that, by the way...?) got so off color the other night.

Gawd damn...
Washington post is reporting that Trump dictated Trump Jr misleading statement about the Russian Lawyer. I just thought he was giving him input.

I knew some one would post this on the main board...

It's like when someone post a new trailer in a 10 page movie discussion thread and then 20 minutes later.. someone posts the same trailer in it's on thread... and basically divides the conversation.

Well Gawd Damn..... I just found out that Jay Sekolow lives in Franklin, TN. This shit is cray!
do you have any explanation for why he keeps getting owned on TV?
I can't believe this high powered attorney can't issue a statement and defend it without contradicting his own argument or worse he sometimes even implicates his client to participation in a potentially more serious crime

‘Voices on Fox that drive me nuts’: Hannity turns fire on fellow network heavyweight Shep Smith

A Fox News host lashed out at the chief news anchor of Fox News in the growing internal battle at the network.

Conservative pundit Sean Hannity used his nationally syndicated talk radio show to criticize Shepard Smith for being insufficiently supportive of President Donald Trump.

“I like Shep,” Hannity said Monday. “But he’s so anti-Trump. I mean, he went off on a rant last week.”

Hannity was likely referring to a well-publicized dressing-down President Trump’s team received from Smith.

“If there’s nothing there and that’s what they tell us, they tell us there’s nothing to this and nothing came of it, a nothing burger, it wasn’t memorable. Didn’t tell you about it because it wasn’t anything, so I didn’t even remember it with a Russian interpreter in the room at Trump Tower,” Smith said Friday. “If all of that, why all of these lies? Why is it lie after lie after lie?”

“I’ll say this about the Fox News Channel, there are voices on Fox that drive me nuts,” Hannity admitted. “Like Shep and I been friends for years, we just respect we don’t agree. And the media was praising Shep and he’s not the biggest fan of Trump, fine!”

The extent to which Fox News personalities are fans of President Trump is tearing the network apart.

“Smith is a hard news anchor who is supposed to cover the news straight down the middle with no bias. Hannity is a conservative talk show host extremely supportive of Trump. Both have been with Fox News since its inception in 1996,” CNN explained. “Hannity’s comments about Smith highlight a deepening divide at Fox News between the network’s news operation and its opinion hosts. Hard news anchors like Smith and Chris Wallace have expressed dismay in recent days with the news that has emerged from the Trump White House, particularly after emails revealed Donald Trump Jr. met with a Russian lawyer under the pretense she would provide ‘very high level and sensitive information’ that would ‘incriminate’ Hillary Clinton. Meanwhile, hosts like Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and Eric Bolling have sought to downplay such news, instead characterizing it as hysteria from the supposed liberal media.”

In a further sign of the split at the conservative network, Fox News White House correspondent John Roberts left Tuesday’s press briefing in a huff, taking a shot at Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Clinton story ignored by Fox News anchor

While his colleagues devote serious airtime speculating about the former secretary of state's role in the Uranium One deal, Shep Smith is having none of it.

NEW YORK (AP) -- While Fox News Channel has spent hours talking about Hillary Clinton and an Obama-era uranium deal in recent weeks, its news anchor Shepard Smith avoided the story entirely.

Fresh evidence that Smith is an island unto himself at the news network came in research released Thursday by the liberal watchdog group Media Matters for America. During the three weeks starting Oct. 17, Fox News spent just under 12 hours talking about the Uranium One deal, with 29 percent of that time on opinion host Sean Hannity's prime-time show.

In recent weeks, the issue has been at the center of the nation's partisan divide. Hannity calls it "the real Russian conspiracy," while Democrats suggest the story is used to distract from news about Robert Mueller's investigation into President Donald Trump and ties to Russia. Conservatives contend that "mainstream" news outlets are obsessed with Mueller's investigation.

Republicans have called for a probe into the 2010 purchase of American uranium mines by a Russian-backed company, noting some of the company's investors had donated money to Clinton. The state department, then led by Clinton, was one of nine U.S. agencies with oversight of the deal, although she has said she wasn't involved. Trump has said the company's sale is a scandal on par with Watergate.

Trump's favorite morning show, "Fox & Friends," spent an hour and nine minutes talking about the deal, second only to Hannity on Fox, Media Matters said.

Smith's 3 p.m. weekday newscast didn't mention the story at all during the three weeks, except for two minutes on Oct. 27 — when Smith wasn't in and Trace Gallagher substituted for him.

Fox did not make Smith or the show's executive producer available for an interview on Thursday. The veteran newscaster is often criticized by Fox's more conservative viewers for reporting on views they disagree with.

"The base doesn't like Shepard Smith," said Tim Graham, director of media analysis at the conservative Media Research Center. "That would be a heck of a Christmas present — dump Shep, let MSNBC have him."

Fox News, in response, said Smith was "one of the most valued and talented journalists" at the network.

The Uranium One story came back in the news through stories in The Hill in October that the FBI was investigating whether Russia was trying to gain influence in the U.S. nuclear industry at the time the deal was being considered. The MRC said ABC and CBS spent a total of 4 minutes, 38 seconds on this story, and NBC News didn't cover it. The watchdog had no accounting for how much time CNN and MSNBC spent on the story, but said they were most likely to debunk it when it was brought up.
