www.rawstory.com Trump making an example of disloyal ex-allies as a warning to his new crew: report

President Donald Trump is not just attempting to enact revenge with his recent spree of retributive acts against former allies, The New York Times reported on Monday — he is also trying to create a culture of fear of crossing him in his new administration.Trump moved quickly in the first week by rev...

Very obvious Mike Pence vibes here.

Yeah, it’s weird to call this a “warning” after he already sent a mob after Pence, and then pardoned the entire mob. Seems like we’re well past warnings at this point.

So... in public actions his 2 main plays were to negate consequences for people who committed violence in his favor.
Then to openly and publicly announce that he's taking away security for others... Guy may as well go on television and say "If some of my supporters were to happen to these guys, I'd probably pardon them".
- "will no one rid me of this troublesome priest"

Thugs. You can tell by the gang colors they wear and how they act.
Like, I always feel like Donald is such an idiot he probably eats a lot of paper in a
kind of way to try to hide evidence.
Because he's probably also the guy who you have to ask
Just... we're so fucking cooked.
- What else should he do with papers? Read them?!

- We're already being punished.
- That picture has been "cleaned up" enough that it's beginning to look kind of like Biden.

When do you think he'll die? Place your bets.
- Not soon enough
  
  We knew that by 2016.
- The problem is that the damage is done. He's proven the game plan works and he's not even that clever. Whoever replaces him will just pick up where he left of end then we're really fucked.

The upshot, said the report, is that "the moves send a clear signal that Mr. Trump feels unconstrained about punishing the disloyal, that he is potentially willing to go further against his enemies than he had pledged on the campaign trail and that there will be a price for any opposition to come."
Dude is gonna end up with a bullet in his head if he's not careful. I don't think people are as loyal to him as he thinks they are. (To be clear, I'm not advocating for this)
- Remember, the GOP is the party of "rules for their not for me." That clearly implies that even if they aren't loyal, they probably think they were loyal enough.

Only bitches talk about loyalty.
Shit, now I'm a bitch. Curse these consistent rules!

Fucking Farce.
