Because yeah, I don't believe the core message of that article. Won't reprint. It may be an anon-PR leverage tactic that I think I've seen Trump aides employ several times, in what (I think) were feeble attempts to make Trump do The Right Thing. So many "quotes on condition of anonymity from senior Trump white house aides" have been absolute garbage in the last several months especially, and across all outlets.
But if Kevin McCarthy were to go there? Uh oh, we could have another Trump "flex" soon. When Chad Wolf stepped down today, the same day of his resignation announcement, my first feeling was genuine concern. We should probably have a DHS leader in the days to come.
This isn't over. :|
