Rachel's reading of Anonymous

ANY of it come as ANY surprise to anyone?

As bizarre and scary as it is, the narrative is so freaking easily predictable.

1. yeah it's what I've been thinking goes on

[dawg day]

2. I wonder who it is-- there are probably many clues

This would be someone who was in the Oval Office early in the administration (maybe not later). Sounds more like WH staff than cabinet agency staff. Could be Reince Priebus?

[mnmoderatedem]

4. Priebus is a good possibility

he was sort of "inherited" in a sense. Not one of trump's inner circle from the start.

Can't buy that it's Conway, as others have speculated. She's been too vociferous in her defense of trumpie, and the narrative seems too well spoken for her small mindedness

9. Priebus was gone in in the summer of 2017.

The op-ed last year was from September of 2018. It can't be him.

3. Shocking

But not a surprise

[BKDem]

5. Worrying about who these anonymous people are

is like worrying about who pulled the fire alarm when the building is engulfed in flames.

[dewsgirl]

10. Good analogy.

[crickets]

13. +1

[UniteFightBack]

6. I must watch later. I will be tired tomorrow. nt

[onecaliberal]

7. In the real world trump would be unemployable.

[NCLefty]

8. It's everything I feared and more. We're a breath from disaster at all times.

[Talitha]

11. Wouldn't it be a kick if 'Anonymous' was Pence?

[OldRed2450]

12. Krisjen Nielson?

She seems cowardly enough to do this. I have no respect for people who refuse to put their name on t. Our nation is at stake!
