  • THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WE WARNED YOU ABOUT, BUT LET ME GIVE YOU

  • SPECIFICS.

  • THE NEW YORK TIMES EXPLAINS --

  • OH MY GOD.

  • OH, THE FATE OF THE FREE WORLD RIDES ON THIS

  • GUY.

  • I'VE BEEN THERE, BROTHER.

  • I WAS THERE IN THIRD GRADE.

  • I

  • REMEMBER IN LAW SCHOOL, JUST TRYING TO GET THE HELL OUT OF

  • THERE, I FILLED IT WITH GRAPHS AND MAPS, 25 PAGES, I HAD 10

  • PAGES OF MAPS AND GRAPHS.

  • BUT YOU ARE THE PRESIDENT, THE

  • COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF.

  • EVEN THE THREE TO SIX PAGES OBAMA HAD, I

  • REMEMBER FUN OF THAT -- IF THEY CAN'T CONTAIN NORTH KOREA POLICY

  • TO SIX PAGES, LET'S GO SEVEN.

  • BUT THIS GUY IS DOWN TO ONE PAGE

  • WITH LOTS OF PICTURES.

  • A WHITE HOUSE OFFICIAL SAID --

  • OH MY GOD, WHAT HAVE WE DONE?

  • AND I'M JUST GETTING STARTED.

  • WE'RE GOING TO POLITICO.

  • GET A LOAD OF THIS OPENING SENTENCE --

  • OH, IS IT HARDER THAN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS?

  • OF COURSE IT'S

  • HARD!

  • YOU ARE THE LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD, THE PRESIDENT OF THE

  • UNITED STATES.

  • OH MY GOD, WHAT A CHILD, WHAT A CHILD.

  • AGAIN, THIS

  • IS ACCORDING TO NOT US, THEM.

  • INSIDERS.

  • HERE --

  • GUYS, THIS IS WHY I TOLD YOU DURING THE PRIMARIES WHEN HE

  • LOST IOWA AND HE SAID IT TURNS OUT THERE IS A THING CALLED A

  • GROUND GAME, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT, YOU HAVE TO GET OUT THE VOTE,

  • HUH?

  • FORGET THAT HE LOST IOWA, FORGET EVERYTHING ELSE, EXCEPT

  • FOR JESUS, WHO GOES INTO A PRESIDENTIAL RACE, IT'S THE

  • FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT CONTEST, AND YOU DON'T KNOW YOU

  • HAVE TO GET OUT THE VOTE?

  • THAT'S A GUY WHO NEVER DOES HIS

  • HOMEWORK.

  • THAT'S A SPOILED BRAT.

  • NOW WHEN YOU HAVE THAT GUY

  • INSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE AND HE'S LIKE, HUH, TURNS OUT THERE WILL

  • BE INFIGHTING AND SOMETIMES COURTS WON'T LET ME DO WHAT I

  • WANT, I DIDN'T KNOW I WASN'T KING.

  • HE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING

  • ABOUT OUR GOVERNMENT.

  • WHAT HAVE WE DONE?

  • IT DOESN'T GET ANY

  • BETTER --

  • LET'S PAUSE THERE FOR A SECOND.

  • YOU GUYS HAVE ALL MET A

  • GUY LIKE THIS, WHO IS INSECURE AND IF HE GETS CAUGHT

  • FLAT-FOOTED, WHICH IN TRUMP'S CASE IS ALMOST ALWAYS -- I

  • DIDN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT ANYWAY, GET A LOAD OF TWO PANTS

  • OVER HERE, WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THAT -- ANYWAY, STEVE, GIVE HIM

  • THE ANSWER.

  • SO YES, STEVE BANNON IS THE PRESIDENT.

  • PAUL RYAN,

  • DONALD TRUMP DOESN'T EVEN LIKE HIM.

  • SUPPORTERS WERE TRYING TO

  • GET RYAN FIRED, BUT NOW THAT HE HIS PRESIDENT, HE DOESN'T WANT

  • TO BE PRESIDENT.

  • HE LIKES THE JOB IN THE TITLE, HE LIKES THE

  • OFFICE, BUT HE IS LIKE, OH, PRESIDENT-ING, THAT IS SO HARD.

  • PAUL, TAKE IT FROM HERE.

  • AND --

  • THEY ARE AFRAID TO TELL HIM STUFF BECAUSE THE CHILD ISN'T

  • GOING TO UNDERSTAND IT.

  • HE HAS THE NUCLEAR FOOTBALL.

  • HE HAS IT.

  • HE'S IN CHARGE OF THE MOST POWERFUL MILITARY EVER BUILT BY

  • MAN, AND HIS NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL THINKS YOU CAN'T TALK TO

  • JOFFREY BECAUSE HE'S AN IDIOT AND DOESN'T UNDERSTAND SIMPLE

  • STATEMENTS AND INTELLIGENCE BRIEFINGS AND POLICY ISSUES.

  • GOD

  • HELP US ALL.

  • SOME FOLKS ON THE NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL DON'T

  • LIKE THAT HE HAS POLITICIZED THINGS, K.T.

  • MCFARLAND HAS COME

  • IN THERE AND DURING WHAT SHOULD BE APOLITICAL DISCUSSIONS ABOUT

  • NATIONAL SECURITY, TALKING ABOUT HOW WE NEED TO MAKE AMERICA

  • GREAT AGAIN -- THIS IS NOT THE CAMPAIGN, FOCUS ON THE ISSUES.

  • SOME PEOPLE IN THE NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL AREN'T HAPPY

  • WITH TRUMP, KEEP IT REAL, THAT'S PART OF THIS PROCESS.

  • SOME HAVE

  • A VESTED INTEREST IN MAKING TRUMP LOOK BAD BECAUSE THEY

  • DON'T AGREE WITH HIM AND THINK HE IS A DANGER TO THE REPUBLIC.

  • THEY ARE LIKELY RIGHT BUT THE DETAILS ARE CONFIRMED BY DOZENS

  • OF PEOPLE.

  • LET'S GO TO ONE OF HIS FRIENDS.

  • HE HAS EVERY REASON

  • TO STICK UP FOR TRUMP, IT'S CHRISTOPHER RUDDY, HE'S BEEN ALL

  • OVER THE MEDIA, NEWSMAX CEO.

  • HE IS SUPER RIGHT WING, RUNS A

  • RIGHT WING WEBSITE, HE'S BEEN FRIENDS WITH TRUMP FOR A WHILE.

  • HE SAYS --

  • HE WENT IN KNOWING A DAMN THING.

  • OF COURSE RUNNING THE

  • FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS NEW TO HIM, IT'S NEW TO EVERYBODY.

  • THAT

  • IS WHY YOU STUDY AND GET READY.

  • HERE IS ONE OF HIS BEST FRIENDS

  • SAYING OF COURSE HE DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING.

  • HE'LL PICK IT UP, HE'S

  • ALREADY PRESIDENT, PROBABLY AT SOME POINT HE WILL PICK IT UP

  • BEFORE WE ALL DIE, BUT GOOD LUCK.

  • FAST LEARNER.

  • BESIDES

  • WHICH, HE LIKES MAPS.

  • MORE FROM POLITICO --

  • OH GOD, OH GOD.

  • THIS CHILD IS WALKING AROUND LIKE, THAT IS

  • SHINY, I LIKE THAT.

  • THEY EXPLAIN IN THE REST OF THE ARTICLE TOO

  • PAINFUL TO QUOTE, HOW HE BRINGS PEOPLE INTO THE OVAL OFFICE AND

  • SHOWS AROUND -- I KNOW EVERY PRESIDENT SHOWS OFF THE OVAL

  • OFFICE, BUT IN THE CONTEXT OF EVERYTHING ELSE, HE IS SHOWING

  • PEOPLE SHINY OBJECTS BECAUSE HE CAN'T FOCUS ON PAST ONE PAGE.

  • WE HAVE A REAL ISSUE IN AMERICA --

  • SPOILED BRAT BULLY.

  • HA HA, SEAH, THEY HAD A GIRL PLAY YOU.

  • SHINY OBJECT!

  • MAPS!

  • MOST POWERFUL MAN

  • ON EARTH.

  • AND --

  • PART OF THE REASON WHY HE IS NOW THINKING OF FIRING MIKE

  • FLYNN, FOR GOOD REASON, REINCE PRIEBUS BECAUSE HE DIDN'T LIKE

  • THE WAY THINGS STARTED -- THAT'S YOU, KNUCKLEHEAD.

  • SEAN IS

  • BEING PLAYED BY A GIRL, THINKING OF FIRING HIM.

  • EVERYONE IS ON

  • EDGE AND THERE ARE POWER STRUGGLES.

  • THAT HAPPENS WHEN

  • THERE IS NO ONE IN CHARGE.

  • AN EFFECTIVE MANAGER WOULD SET THE

  • TONE AND BE CLEAR, SAY REINCE PRIEBUS IS MY CHIEF OF STAFF,

  • THINGS WILL FLOW THROUGH HIM, I WON'T UNDERMINE HIM THREE WEEKS

  • IN, I'LL LET HIM DO HIS JOB AND HERE IS THE CHAIN OF COMMAND AND

  • HEAR HIS REPORT TO.

  • INSTEAD TRUMP IS LIKE, WHO WAS IN THE

  • ROOM LAST?

  • SQUIRREL!

  • YOU CHILD, YOU JOFFREY.

  • WHAT HAVE WE DONE?

  • OKAY --

  • I KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF TRUMP SUPPORTERS OUT THERE.

  • COME

  • ON, GUYS.

  • HE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW THE COURT CAN STOP THE PRESIDENT

  • FROM DOING SOME THINGS BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO CHECK IF IT IS

  • LEGAL OR CONSTITUTIONAL.

  • I DON'T CARE HOW ALT RIGHT YOU ARE, YOU

  • KNOW THAT.

  • YOU TOOK CIVICS AND EIGHTH GRADE, YOU KNOW THE

  • JUDICIARY GETS TO DECIDE WHAT IS LEGAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL, THE

  • EXECUTIVE BRANCH IS CHECKED BY THE OTHER BRANCHES, YOU KNOW

  • THAT.

  • THIS CHILD DOESN'T KNOW IT AND HE'S THE PRESIDENT.

  • AND HE

  • WENT IN THAT UNPREPARED.

  • HE HAS PUT ALL OF US IN GRAVE DANGER.

  • FINALLY, POLITICO REPORTS --

  • HAS IT?

  • HAS IT BEEN TOUGH ON THE BABY?

  • MY GOD, MAN.

  • YOU HAVE

  • A HEAVY, HEAVY RESPONSIBILITY.

  • AND IF YOU AS A MANCHILD CANNOT

  • BEAR IT, STEP ASIDE BEFORE YOU GET ALL OF US IN A WORLD OF

  • TROUBLE.

  • IN YOUR CASE, LITERALLY.

  • I DON'T CARE IF YOUR

  • FEELINGS ARE BRUISED, I DON'T CARE IF YOU'VE BEEN CRYING ALL

  • NIGHT AND YOU JUST LIKE PICTURES AND YOU DON'T LIKE WORDS -- BUT

  • FOR GOD'S SAKE, THIS IS A SERIOUS JOB.

  • REMEMBER, HE'S

  • NEVER HAD A BOSS, HE'S NEVER HAD A REAL JOB.

  • HIS DADDY GAVE HIM

  • $200 MILLION TO PLAY WITH AND EVERY TIME HE SCREWED IT UP HIS

  • DAD CAME AND RESCUED HIM. $3 MILLION IN ATLANTIC CITY, $7

  • MILLION IN ANOTHER PROJECT, HE BAILED HIM OUT, HE WENT BANKRUPT

  • SIX TIMES.

  • I TOLD YOU THIS, IT'S NOT PARTISAN, IT'S BECAUSE THIS

  • GUY IS DANGEROUSLY INCOMPETENT, A SPOILED BRAT WHO NEVER HAD TO

  • WORK FOR A LIVING.

  • HE GOES INTO THE WHITE HOUSE AND HE'S

  • WANDERING AROUND IN A BATHROBE AND HAS NO IDEA WHAT TO DO, AND

  • DOES NOT HAVE THE CAPACITY TO LEARN.

  • WE'RE ALL IN A WORLD OF

  • DANGER HERE.

  • I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE MANCHILD LEAVES, BUT EVERY

  • DAY HE'S IN THERE IS A DANGER TO THE REPUBLIC.

  • AND UNFORTUNATELY

  • TO THE ENTIRE WORLD.
