The president says the failing newspaper wouldn’t exist without him and that the piece is ‘gutless editorial.’
“We believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic. That is why many Trump appointees have vowed to do what we can to preserve our democratic institutions while thwarting Mr. Trump’s more misguided impulses until he is out of office.”
The author also admits that members of the president’s Cabinet considered pushing Trump out of office, but dismissed the idea. “Given the instability many witnessed, there were early whispers within the cabinet of invoking the 25th Amendment, which would start a complex process for removing the president. But no one wanted to precipitate a constitutional crisis. So we will do what we can to steer the administration in the right direction until — one way or another — it’s over.”
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said, “The individual behind this piece has chosen to deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States. He is not putting country first, but putting himself and his ego ahead of the will of the American people. This coward should do the right thing and resign.”
President Trump has never been shy about speaking his mind and as expected, he didn’t hesitate to address the op-ed directly. His comments about it were made in the East Room and he referred to it as “gutless”.
Trump has often called several news outlets “fake news”. He also believes that the news and social media have a negative bias against him. The Inquisitr recently reported Trump believes Google purposely rigs their search engine to show negative news stories about him.
