Trump blaming everyone but himself

So we're in for some sackings, a night of the long knives as they say in politics. Trump is pretty well furious with everyone, even his beloved son-in-law. He is blaming everyone else for the series of disasters he has suffered this week, not for a moment thinking that perhaps he is the one to blame. Trump is even beginning to turn against HR McMaster. Not that long ago he thought he was the greatest. Now apparently he views him as a pain in the whatsit because he has the temerity to interrupt him almost as soon as he starts pontificating. Well I guess that's his job, to stop his commander-in-chief from saying something stupid, false or downright embarrassing. But interrupting a man like Trump is dangerous. He doesn't like anyone to speak louder than him. So watch your step General McMaster. You could go the way of Sean Spicer who looks like he is for the chop. He'll be moved to some unimportant flunky role where he has to ensure Trump has enough toothpaste and to be around when his shoes need buffing up. Trump should get himself in front of a mirror and say 20 times, "I am going to be a good president and I will always speak the truth and I will be nice to the nice people and tough to the horrid, oh and I will tell all my advisers and staff what I'm thinking so there are no surprises." Right now the White House is full of people who spend every day panicking, because they haven't a clue what the president is going to say or do next. This is why McMaster keeps on interrupting him because when a certain line of argument or a specific policy is agreed, and then Trump goes all topsy turvy and says something else, McMaster has little choice but to remind him what was agreed just a few hours earlier. Anyone working in the White House needs a medal.
