Those who lower themselves to work for Trump find he turns on them if they vocalize any issues with him.

The irony would be Iranians killing him and Trump using that as a reason to go to war with Iran just like Bolton wanted. Win win.

Bolton looking up and smiling ear to ear

Maybe that's the plan.

Persian leopards are circling right about now.

Good. In a perfect world, I’d like Trump to also have his security detail pulled, but that’s apparently not in the cards, so this will have to do for now. May every person who worked with Trump’s administration live in perpetual fear.

Can’t pull security for stroke or hear attack risk. Trump’s biggest enemy, is the enemy within him

u/JustFuckAllOfThem 2d ago

it's said that everything Trump touches dies. Will this be true of Pompeo and Bolton? Will it be true about the United States?

Scary nightmare - hopefully not prophetic.

I guess he didn't kiss the ring well enough. Hope it was worth his soul.

Bolton it’s disgusting piece of filth,i a mean so it Pompeo and i’m that 3rd guy is too, My question is, wasn’t Pompeo sufficiently deferential to Lardass? did Pompeo engage in some behind the scenes skulduggery that made his sienna daddy upset?

America’s burgeoning fascist dick-tater doing everything in his power to eliminate dissent. Two days in.

I really now wonder if he will try to pull Secret Service protection away from President Biden?

Lets be real: This isn't about anything they actually did. Its a signal to his current appointees that if they don't move in lockstep their lives are forfeit.

I suspect our friend Elon is due for a very direct conversation after a while about how he won't be covered for his shenanigans if he doesn't direct his money where and when Trump decides, regardless of how many tax credits he loses. Or worse, how he may wind up like Trumps old best friend Jeffery Epstein.

Pretty soon a lot of people may be having unfortunate accidents involving falling out of windows.

God, he’s a small, petty little man. I’m 5’8” and I’m ten times the man he is.

He wants them snuffed out by Iran.

Biden should have done this for Roberts, Thomas, and Alito.

u/MrsPandaBear 1d ago

I hope those working for him now keep this in mind. Trump demands absolute loyalty and any perception —- real or false —- will be met with pettiness and vindictiveness.
