An anonymous senior Trump official has published an oped in the New York Times, excoriating Donald Trump. Fox News reports:
The New York Times on Wednesday published an opinion piece written by an anonymous senior White House official who described a “two-track presidency” in which top officials are “working diligently from within to frustrate parts of [President Trump’s] agenda and his worst inclinations.”
In the piece, entitled “I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration,” the author wrote that the alleged actions by White House officials were not the popular ‘resistance’ of the left.
Despite the rare anonymous nature of the piece, the Times’ Twitter account indicated that the author was a man.
In Opinion
In an anonymous Op-Ed, a senior Trump administration official says he and others are working to frustrate the president’s “misguided impulses.” https://t.co/qW1IoM3AYY pic.twitter.com/rCHnQfcRjG

“We want the administration to succeed and think that many of its policies have already made America safer and more prosperous,” he wrote, only to add that “these successes have come despite — not because of — the president’s leadership style, which is impetuous, adversarial, petty and ineffective.”
This is precisely why the American people voted for Donald Trump – to get rid of the swamp and the deep state. This is assuming that this anonymous oped is actually true in the first place.
I will right away grab your rss as I can not find your email subscription link or e-newsletter service. Do you’ve any? Kindly let me know in order that I could subscribe. Thanks.
The term sedition comes to mind
I don’t believe anonymous exists, except in the minds of the editors in the Times newsroom. I think it was cooked up by the Times editors to coincide with the release of Woodwards Book and Bernstiens Book.Just another piece of garbage to aggravate the president, upset conservatives and give the Socialist Democrats some talking points.
Who wrote this oped? How do we know if they are what they claim to be? This article is suspect!
The NYTimes again exposes what a fool Trump really is and what weak suckers support him but in the White House circle there are patriots tryiing to save the constitution and the country.
weak suckers are the resistance and opposition for your president D. TRUMP. You all are despicable and in any way are a real AMERICAN.
So for you liberal lurkers and you half-assed fence-sitters, Tough Shit! You had your big hurrah and now your party is over. For you staunch Republicans in office, don’t gloat so much yourselves. You’ve been put on notice by the American people that we’re fed up with ALL YOU BASTARDS and if you don’t start putting America first, you do so at your own peril. You might want to buy a copy of George McGovern’s autobiography and see how shocking and humbling it can be for a professional politician to have to try to find legitimate work once he falls from grace.
This election was pure, unadulterated AMERICAN. Hillary got beaten and AMERICA WON THE ELECTION. You can claim he’s not “your president” all you want, but unless you ‘forfeit’ your American citizenship, …..
YES, HE IS YOUR PRESIDENT!!!!
Go cry a river some place they need water.
Nice response- seems like Ray may be a person not understanding that in business results are a deciding factor, not so in politics. Ask yourself where we would be today if H was leading or Obama was successfully in the dynasty he so desired- Just the employment picture and the increased revenue making up for lower taxes in lieu of welfare rolls continually rising. Also, if you had a business, would you not want to promote and fire or allow to leave those persons that cannot take the heat. Obama said it best”elections have consequences, I won” SO he as leader of the Dems and the Dems should accept and stop playing games such as paying persons to interrupt hearings- act business-like and more mid-state voters can respect you for crawling out of the swamp. Signing as Deplorable but enjoying 6 more years.
Ok, you win for most ignorant post of the day.
So you think those that support the Constitution EXEGETICALLY are weak?
What about those who disapprove of presidents starting unconstitutional wars to kill foreign leaders so as to install radical Muslims and smuggle guns to Islamic enemies;
leaving diplomatic and military personnel behind to cover up gun smuggling;
having US citizens killed abroad without due process and claiming the same authority in the US;
using executive agencies to harass, spy upon, take property of, and arrest political opponents;
sending TS SCI documents over insecure email and servers;
refusing to secure the borders against illegal invasion and securing the right of citizens over non-citizens, the first two duties of the federal government;
showing disdain for the Constitution;
refusing to support protection of our election system and employment for citizens first;
wanting to fundamentally change the USA into a socialist welfare nanny authoritarian one-party state;
subverting the Constitution and the defying SCOTUS by using EOs and in illegal appointments;
wanting a civilian National Security Force as strong and as well funded as the military;
or enabling, if not instigating, sedition?
Please give us you explicit definition of patriotism.
Then why didn’t they do something before Trump got in office?
For years I haven’t believed ANYTHING the NY Times has printed. However this has some merit because it fits into the Times category. And I’m sure there are some in the administration that would take an amount of money large enough to sabotage the president. The democrats have some DEEP pockets, as I have previously said. George Soros and a couple of his billionaire friends would be more than willing to shell out a million if they though they could put the skids under the president. And it is evident that there has already been a couple of well paid scumbags at work for them.
Bill, The NYT is the rag of the deep state, No name of source, no credibility.
I’ll explain why it’s a hit piece. First the “author” say’s that they want to be anonymous so they won’t be fired and other media is “guessing” it’s Pence. Pence can’t be fired, he was elected. The only way Pence goes is impeachment. They use a term that Pence has used ONE time in 500 presentations to tie him to the release. There is nothing to gain by any appointed staff member of Trumps inner circle, they all work at the pleasure of the president. All of his cabinet came from better paying and more lucrative fields before joining the cabinet so their lose of a “government” position would allow them to return to much more personal and profitable lifestyle. The ONLY person who is currently vindictive and at odds with Trump is Sessions but he also can be replaced at any point.
The NYT has put out so much bogus stuff I cannot believe this at all. The people voted this man, Mr Trump to be the President of the United States. Actions to undermine his agenda when sworn to support the President is the mark of a traitor. The person or persons doing this should reap the penalty for treason.
Why now for such an article? If there is news then what is to prevent fake polls saying the dems are gaining ground. And then all the fake claims Trump is a racist without any examples of his racism? Racist is the deep states version of infidel. Many blacks need to get over their love of being the victims of white racism. Sure there are some, maybe many whites who are racist but there some, maybe many blacks that are racist. Racism is sin, like stealing, adultery and sin can’t be eliminated by the govt. People being free creates a lot of things because some people are disposed to break the law and /or reject the rules for human behavior–the 10 Commandments. In fact the govt is trying to drive good out of society by establishing Secular Humanism as the state religion. Better known as PC. Thanks to the dem party and their part first agenda.
Isn’t it ironic that this article hit right when Woodward’s book is coming out? And it “anonymously” supports Woodward’s fabrications? I don’t know who wrote this piece, but I think we’ll find out pretty soon. If it’s someone in the White House, then they have admitted to actively working to thwart a duly elected President. Could be a problem for them – hope it is. Or it could be one of Woodward’s cronies, trying to help him sell books while smearing President Trump. Imaginary friends should not have a voice, but Harry Reid used it to his benefit and they keep repeating his deception.
I think we’re going to see a lot of disinformation and destabilization efforts between now and the election. It it’s peak new revelations will be hitting almost daily and the media will be aghast at how many insiders are snitching on their boss. Trump won’t be able to do anything right, he will be portrayed as a dangerous psychopath, his supporters will be making secret Nazi signals with their hands, he will be colluding with the Eskimos and Mueller may indict someone at just the right moment. It;s all bullshit and many people will see through it. His popularity won’t budge to the Media’s astonishment and Republicans will probably hold both the House and Senate. These are the time we are living in. The Left just cannot accept that Trump won the election.
perhaps it this article was written by a democrat not one of Trumps officials. If it was written by a trump person then he needs to be fired as he has been bought off paid off probably by Soros to do this news media should not have published it w/o the writers name traitors and people who commit treason have no place in America therefore should be shot, including the people who pay others to do nasty things against our President, country, government. .
The anonymous source probably works at the NY times and is the author of this fairy tale. More fake news bullshit !
Perhaps, but the rotten democrats are behind the whole thing. Trump is one strong individual to take this barrage and remain standing. Hope he releases the FISA docs as payback. Big story there. He has my full support.
Anyone can write this article. A real worthy source steps up and is honorable. This is just another left wing lie or mole. To be clear, no one but the president can do what trump has done. This so called source is another part of the swamp and carries absolutely no credibility. Fake news once again. Get a life and real job
The New York Times really stunk it up this time. Who can be stupid enough to imagine that President trump does not even know what is on his desk from one hour to the next? Probably many inane liberals do, but they have just been stupid enough to believe the rantings of the radical Democrats. I spent years working in an office, and I always knew what was on my desk. If something was changed, I would know. Trump is surely the same, or better. The NYT “opinion piece” is nothing but bad fiction.
The NYT’s is nothing more than the crap in the Russian dossier…. not worth the fertilizer found in a herd of cows. Actually probably coming from the belly of the beast of eight years.
Deep state, if we catch you, your life wil notbe good
You can tell a hypocrit and can smell a hypocrit. He wants to act like the lone ranger and still collect a paycheck. It is too bad that my President has not cleaned house of these Obama left-overs and traitors that have infested our most noteworthy agencies. Trump needs our help in pushing for a national allegiance and performance based promotion system within the Federal government. Too many ‘insiders’ have been selling us out to foreign governments and the fake media for their own self-interest.
The OP Ed has nothing to do with the “Deep State”. It is from a political appointee high up in the Trump administration. Maybe Dan Coats.
The mount of crap that this president has had to endure is incredible!!! I hope that he has the fortitude to continue in his endeavors to make America great again!!!
THIS PAPER OR SHOULD I SAY BIRD CAGE SHIT LINER SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PUBLISH UNTIL ALL SOURCES ARE PROVEN TO BE TRUE AND ACCURATE, I AM TIRED OF THE LEFT MARXIST REPORTING LIKE A BUNCH OF CHILDREN PUSHING FANTENCY TALES IN THE SCHOOL YARD !!!!! THEY SHOULD BE IN RUSSIA LIKE THE GOOD BOLSHEVIKS THEY ARE WORKING FOR PRAVDA !!! GOOD WORK COMRADES!!!! VIETNAM VET
Anonymous source means no source, that it’s just made up.
You are correct, Sir.
Remember, this is the same NYT that denied the existence of the Holocaust; never reported a single thread. Now, they want readers to believe that, as Trump haters, someone other than Trump is responsible for MAGA. So, tying in with Bob Woodward’s BS book, the NYT is now doubling down telling we the people, as well as the President, are all crazy!
Did anyone else besides me immediately think of Jeff Sessions?
No I leaning toward Rod Rosenstein or one of the Clintons. Maybe even Obama himself.
AND, OF COURSE, WE ARE NOW TO BELIEVE THE N.Y.TIMES HAS AN INSIDE TRACK IN THE WHITEHOUSE WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE MAKING TRUMP LOOK BETTER THAN HE REALLY IS. [YEAH, THAT IS BELIEVABLE]. AND THEY ARE THE REAL HERO’S WHO HAVE MADE ALL THE RIGHT MOVES THAT ARE MAKING THE COUNTRY GREAT AGAIN. SO, IF YOU CAN’T BEAT TRUMP, I GUESS THIS IS ANOTHER WAY [ALTHOUGH TOUGH TO BELIEVE] TO TAKE CREDIT FOR ALL THE GOOD HE’S DONE FOR THE COUNTRY SO FAR. WHERE WERE THESE GUYS WHEN OBAMA AND BUSH WERE IN? CHUCK
You said it exactly right! The Deep State will try anything right now because they are going down the tube!
What credible conservative would go to the New York Times to spill the beans if worried about the Trump presidency? They would go to Fox to say that, if true, there are worrying aspects to the Trump presidency. Consequently I am going to dismiss this story as one from the left and having ulterior motive.
Meanwhile this is what I wrote to Bob Woodward:
Anonymous ….. Yea right ! How about if you have something to say, reach down and grab your manhood and NOT be Anonymous ! I guess you are like all the Undisclosed and the ghost dossiers and the unidentified persons , Trying to destroy the President ! BITCH get in line because everyone that is a dirty criminal is trying to bring him down.
MAGA 2020 !
More cowardly back stabbing. More bulls__t more bullets fired at Trump to assinate his character and stability.
This unknown even has the brass to say he and others are responsible for Trumps success .
100% accurate. This is just more of the WaPo’s crap slinging, and all it really serves to do in give the leftists glee and completely annihilate their own credibility. We now know that Bob Woodward lied about the Trump Tower meeting, and refused to recant it when it was exposed as a lie, and although the
WaPo did write a limp retraction, it only continues to urinate all over itself in this half-assed quest to destroy Trump. They look pathetic and very foolish, if not just plain ignorant.
This person definitely got paid by Dems and/or HELL-ERY. Also the disrupted people won nothing by TRYING to stop or interrupt what was going on. They shouldn’t be allowed in. The protesters also got paid as are all the protestors. They are SCUM!
I think they probably won some Republican votes. The dems paid those crazies but once they started interrupting, I think they realized the monsters they created.
I can’t believe any article that says “anonymous senior official” in it. It is probably a contrived article which has as much truth in it as the “dossier” that was found to be bogus!
The Time’s did not mention how much money they paid for the article.
that person IS A TRAITOR, NEEDS ROOTED OUT AND DEALT WITH AS SUCH.
James Higginbotham – speaking of traitors………my earnest hope is that the truth about the greatest traitor ever to have access to the White House and the enormous number of State Secrets in history, Huma Abedin, will be brought to justice. Her name has disappeared from the world of Media Fake News – hopefully because they are working on ways and means to bring her to justice – together with her boss – but I fear that the swamp will be working overtime to exonerate them both – but not forgetting the disgusting Wiener. This could quite easily be the greatest story EVER to come out of the White House. Incidentally, (although I had great admiration for the MAN himself) when it comes to sexual infidelity look no further than JFK. President Trump, compared with JFK was an absolute AMATEUR. Did they want HIM, JFK, impeached due to his sexual liaisons? NO WAY.
An anonymous senior Trump official? This person has no credibility by hiding. Publish their names or do not publish a fake article.
This coward is full of shit, be a man/woman and show yourself. The NYT is a propaganda machine that’s it, no credibility what so ever. Liberal scumbags. MAGA !!!
Both readers of the New York Slime found this an appropriate and interesting artical
