    Now we know what a Kim Jong-il cabinet meeting looks like. Stay for Schumer's parody on that clip.

      Trump's approval/disapproval numbers hit a new worst.

      Edit: I stand corrected. 3/26 was a point worse.

      Another interesting trend: Nate points out the "strongly support" numbers for Trump have eroded.

      There’s been a considerable decline in the number of Americans who strongly approve of Trump, from a peak of around 30 percent in February to just 21 or 22 percent of the electorate now. (The decline in Trump’s strong approval ratings is larger than the overall decline in his approval ratings, in fact.) Far from having unconditional love from his base, Trump has already lost almost a third of his strong support. And voters who strongly disapprove of Trump outnumber those who strongly approve of him by about a 2-to-1 ratio, which could presage an “enthusiasm gap” that works against Trump at the midterms.

        The most corrupt administration ever.

        Former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, who was removed from his post by the Trump administration last week, was overseeing an investigation into stock trades made by the president’s health secretary, according to a person familiar with the office.

        Tom Price, head of the Department of Health and Human Services, came under scrutiny during his confirmation hearings for investments he made while serving in Congress. The Georgia lawmaker traded hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of shares in health-related companies, even as he voted on and sponsored legislation affecting the industry.

        Price testified at the time that his trades were lawful and transparent. Democrats accused him of potentially using his office to enrich himself. One lawmaker called for an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission, citing concerns Price could have violated the STOCK Act, a 2012 law signed by President Obama that clarified that members of Congress cannot use nonpublic information for profit and requires them to promptly disclose their trades.

        The investigation of Price’s trades by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, which hasn’t been previously disclosed, was underway at the time of Bharara’s dismissal, said the person.

          This seems suboptimal.

            Newsmax guy is doubling down on his sources for the Trump is going to fire Mueller story. Pundits I heard this morning believe that even if Trump did that Ryan and Turtle Boy would still support him. There is nothing this man can do where his party will leave him.

              The GOP and Fox are already wheeling out all their apologists and water carriers for this. Newt Himself was blathering about it today.

                It looks like the strategy is to make a lot noise about firing and, at the same time, about how Mueller has a conflict of interest that prevents him from being impartial. The end game is not so much to remove Mueller as to damage his credibility in advance. Seems ridiculous, given Mueller's reputation, but the GOP does this kind of thing very effectively, at least with its base.

                  My Fox-watching co-workers are already saying Trump "has to" fire Mueller because the investigation "is already over" and also "he was appointed the wrong way."

                  The zombies are already deployed.

                    It's interesting. The GOP appears to be showing their true colors. Last time the Democrats had full control they wanted to give health care to everybody. These guys just want to give more money to people who don't need it. Apparently the government really does control the economy or it would be a complete waste of time for them even to bother running.

                      If he fires Mueller the amount of leaks will quadruple. There will be open revolt outside of the Party...no State Department worker will be loyal.

                      Speaking of leaking, in the last thread I mentioned the rumor that Kellyanne was leaking...it comes from here

                      The gist of it is there is someone on Twitter named "Kellyanne Leaks" who was at an embassy dinner she was at. Apparently she was telling everyone she could talk to about things Trump was saying and staffers inside the White House. (including Reince Himmler) The twitter person included pictures of Kellyanne at the dinner as proof.

                        Ryan and Turtle boy might support don, but Senator Rounds (R, South Dakota) clearly would not accept that move. And he thinks that many of his colleagues would side with him and support Mueller. This was mentioned in an interview with him on Morning Edition.

                          I used to think the comment section was just a minority of loud morons. Then Trump got elected.

                                Yeesh. And what the Trump army will say is "See! Can't prove he was involved at all!! he is vindicated!! You lost!! Get over it!!" instead of focusing on the actual issue.
