Former Trump administration officials met on Monday evening to impede Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential return, CNN reported.The group was apparently only able to agree on two items: the difficulty of successfully plotting opposition to the former president, and the group’s dilemma of making up for lost time.Those in attendance on the secretive phone call were reportedly former White House staffers who served at the pleasure of Trump but likely found more harmony with the administrative state, the unofficial fourth branch of government: Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.

Now we know EXACTLY who was "in on the backstabbing". My bet is that lots of these folks were sabotaging the President ever single day. Rotten, cowardly, thugs, each and every one of them.

Trump loves a good fight... He probably is looking forward to more winning! (And yes, they are terrified of Trump and of Trump supporters).

2020 was a shot across the bow. If one believes the last election was rigged, the next one will be better rigged. The UNIPARTY spent four years trying to run PDT off...and tried to drive the wooden stake with Impeachment 2. Mitch said from the floor of the Senate that the GOPe would not bail him out again. The J6 Commission is almost certain to blame PDT for everything and anything it can dredge up. Wait for the court battles over "insurrection". It's all coming...more surely than Sidney Powell's Kraken. And if the next election is not fixed, and FPDT wins, expect all hell to break loose even more vehemently than '16-'20. And the next impeachment will result in conviction and removal. The Deep State and UNIPARTY will make it happen. As RR used to say, You ain't seen nothin', yet.

but has Trump learned anything about selecting staff and firing people? so much of his administrations problems stemmed from his personnel selections and people he left in place from prior administrations. It is as though he didn't know trustworthy and effective people to hire and even then the leftovers were allowed to undermine him. This appeas to be the default for republican presidents in general.

Secretive phone call? It is not much of a secret. This cabal of backstabbing creeps are getting off to a bad start, having their identities already known and disclosed. This information is a valuable basis upon which to lawfully keep a close watch on these anti-Trumpers. There's little to worry about if this is a leading indicator of their alleged abilities.

One of Trump's biggest weaknesses is that he listened to the wrong people and hired the wrong people. Continuously. Or maybe only backstabbing grotes would want to work for him. But will that change? Will the lesson have been learned, or will we get another administration full of disloyal slime? I really dont want to go through that again. Whats the point of a Ferrari engine if you are going to surround it with Yugo parts?

President Trump’s administration was the least corrupt of any presidency in my lifetime. Dems and RINOs on the take were angry. The only presidents who became wealthy off of their “service” were the Clntoons, the Obozos and the Xidens. Harry Truman would call them crooks. In sharp contrast, the Trumps lost money serving their country. Since the media are scum, they will not report this basic truth

These are not former Trump officials. These are 100% deep state operatives and globalist communist sympathizers. What we need to know right now, is WHO recommended them to President Trump? Was it Pence, was it Lindsay Graham, was it Mitch Mcconnell, was it Paul Ryan? Did they play mental games to trick President Trump into selecting them by identifying the really good guys as deep state or Rinos? We need to know now before 2022!

I give Trump a pass on his personnel missteps… I think he was new to politics in D.C. and, having negotiated his way through the corruption of the New York real estate world thought he could deal with Washington. Little did he know the “Republicans” he hired were much more dishonest, hypocritical, backstabbing careerists than anything he dealt with in NY and NJ.

Draconian is merely 10% but I would settle for a draconian chop of staff from the Executive wing, as long as every week was draconian. That would keep the 'rats scurrying and guessing...AND ratting out each other. I think The President went into the WH with a reasonable expectation that he would get good, solid advice on who to hire from Republicans...he walked into a trap. Who knew there were so many two-faced weasels there; well we know now.

Will someone please tell me why Trump hired all the wrong people? He truly is not a good judge when it comes to hiring staff. Why did he keep Obama's people? My only concern is that he will make the same mistake the second time around. I would vote for him in a heartbeat, but someone needs to have a serious discussion and do his hiring for him. It's a going to be a tough decision Trump or DeSantis.

These Little Yappers have been nipping at Trump's Heels for a long time. I don't think Trump gives them the time of day. He shakes them off and goes about his business, but, you can bet that these names get added to a large list of people to watch out for once the Trump Administration wins and is hiring! Then again, This might just be Trump's way of getting the Roaches to come out into the light so that when DeSantis wins, he won't have to deal with Scum like this! Never know what Trump's plan might be, but you can be guaranteed he (and DeSantis) has one!

Things keep changing. A few months ago I thought Trump would not run. Then I thought he would run. Now, I don’t think so once again. And one of the tells is the subtle shot he took at DeSantis over vaccines. The fact is that Trump, if he runs, is not a shoo-in. And this could be an epic battle for the chance to beat Kamala Harris like a drum in 2024. And, at least according to people like you who took my most recent Twitter poll, Trump is not a shoo-in.

The federal government will let teens drive transports throughout the nation in a move it hopes will alleviate the supply chain crisis—but the initiative is being panned by critics who fear it could lead to disaster.
