It also found that just 24 trust almost all or most of what they hear from the white house. 73 say they trust some or nothing at all of what they hear from the white house. Hours before that poll was released the president wrote on twitter the trump basis is stronger and bigger than ever before. He saved his toughest criticism from a sitting u. S. Senator. It started this morning when he wrote interesting to watch senator Richard Blumenthal then never in u. S. History has anyone lied or defrauded voters like
blumenthal. He told about his conquests, how brave he was and it was all a lie. He cries like a baby and begged for forgiveness like a child. Now he judges collusion.

people i have talked to, no, if you are not in a marriage, you don t know what s going on. they sense this is real and these are actually tension points and it is not just something to you know give them a book deal or tv deal after they leave the white house or after she leaves the white house rather. robert, here is how your colleague reported. in a conversation with trump and with mnuchin, trump approached him and complimented him for not taking a job under attorney sessions. he said to me, i remember clearly you were smart to not work for that guy. he s so weak. trump complained few a few minutes that sessions should not recuse himself from the mueller investigation. i told him, i heard the recusal was very clear. i took great affront at that. what do you think is going on
