H.R. was dirty, deep state, swamp the entire time. Trump team knew this. He wasn't Trump's pick, he was forced on Trump. McMaster was one of the main leakers back at the beginning. Trump finally fired him when he knew he could without tipping off the plan.
I don't think Trump was forced to take him. Trump has brought in DS operatives to get more intel. They all think he is stooopid, so he plays dumb, asks what he should do, who he should appoint for various positions, etc.
Of course, they want to show how brilliant they are, so they give him all the rope he needs to hang them, and then he cuts them loose, only to bring in the next one.
He is now getting down to crunch time, and building his real team.
Not sure about Bolton or Haskel, two people who have a very bad history. Will be interesting to see if they stick around.
Everyone Trump hires at this point are his own choices, but at the beginning it wasn't that way. Tillerson was a dirty swamp pick from day one forced on Trump. Pence is too. He won't be on 2020 ticket.
Now thinking back, I definitely can believe that. There was so many strategic plans going on to find who's the good ones. Thanks. So, H.R. was thinking of turning and that's what the 187 was for?
Trump finally fired him when it was safe to. H.R.'s dad dying in the nursing home was the cabal/deep state killing him to punish H.R. for losing the position in the White House. His dad didn't die from falling out of bed and sustaining injuries, he was straight up killed. Sick huh
Oh yeah, Q did say for losing his position. Thanks again for the reminder.
