i think he was right to hit the reset button and i think it was something that i think the white house needs. i think it s healthy. okay. he thinks it s healthy. he s gone. that s what you say. the question is, what next? what changes? can general kelly, the anti-trump in many ways believes in order, discipline. he thinks before he speaks. can he change the behavior of the president s inner circle and, more importantly, can he change the behavior of the president? yeah. i think two things we need to see, precisely that, how will he impose order on both the senior level staff, the family and outside friends who influence the president or have wide-ranging walk-in privileges, call-in privileges, conversational privileges? will he seek to limit exposure to the president? not to do that but get reports after the fact about what folks talked about? how broadly will that apply? we all assume that the family, jared and ivanka, can come and go as they please.
became an unavoidable tying the hands of a republican president. because they don t trust him on this issue and that statement that scaramucci made is why. the intelligence agencies are in agreement about the russian meddling, the chief thas that t put in are in agreement. and the president thinks it s an attack on the legitimacy of his presidency. it s gone so far down field he has no control of what s going on with the special counsel investigation. is the anger against sessions going to dissipate? the risk that he could wake up one day and decide to fire mueller going to go away? no, it s not. mueller has hired white collar attorneys, jared k suchlt hner and his children s finance koss all get drawn into this. that makes him more livid than anything, that he cannot stop this ball from going further down the field and it could involve his businesses.
