Trump is not saving the nation. He is destroying it. His expertise is in bankruptcy. He is cutting stuff so he can give billionaires a giant tax break, but it will explode the deficit anyway. He is already pushing Congress to raise the debt ceiling by $4.5 trillion cos he is an expert at bankruptcy.

There is only one reason Trump pulled the security off Pompeo and Bolton…to put them in danger for “crossing him.” To send a message to anyone else who would oppose.
Both have active death threats from Iran.
All to intimidate.
