Sorry- it's still amusing to me that no one can figure out what is really going on. Why would #Trump fire his employee? I do not understand their reasoning. Do they really think Witkoff did something Trump didn't want him to?😂

Wow
Three things about the Witkoff tapes:
1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.
