Trump pushes back on reports of chaos in White House

Source: The Hill

President Trump early Thursday pushed back against reports of chaos in the White House, tweeting that his administration is "running very smoothly."

"The results for our Nation are obviously very good," he wrote. "We are the envy of the world."

"But anytime I even think about making changes, the FAKE NEWS MEDIA goes crazy, always seeking to make us look as bad as possible! Very dishonest!"

The president's tweet follows recent comments that point toward a post-midterm reshuffling of top administration staff.

No way would it have continued running after the control panel shook off if the motor wasn't directly wired to house current. As such, it was staged and most of the screws holding it together were probably either loosened or removed. Undoubtedly a returned washer that was defective on the plumbing side. A YouTube stunt.

I got a bridge to sell you. HE keeps telling his supporters he's selling them steak , when its nothing but plain old BS. Just another day , and another BS story from him. Media needs to ignore his lies , and propaganda , and stop showing his video's and tweets.

Even John Hanson didn't have a White House as good as mine's. And Hanson didn't have Muller bustin' his balls.

His lies are so open that you have to be uneducated not to understand he is demented. Now I think his die hard public is demented. One day this will make a great movie and maybe then those idiots who do not know will see for themselves how they were fooled just like hitler fooled his country.........
