Did members of the government team of US President Donald Trump plan a mass resignation in the second year of his presidency because of poor working conditions under him?
This is stated by an anonymous author in the new book "A Warning", from which the "New York Times", the "Washington Post" and other US media cited excerpts in advance.
The - according to self-information - senior members of the Trump government writes, in order to draw attention to the poor governance of the President, they have planned a "Midnight Self-Massacre", ie a mass murder of the masses. The idea of mass resignation had been rejected, however, in order not to destabilize an already spinning government even further.
The author is the same, according to the New York Times, who anonymously wrote an essay from within the Trump administration more than a year ago in the paper and raised numerous accusations against the president.
As the Times continues, the author - or the author - uses several analogies that indicate a "true Republican from the Estabilishment." Many of the political decisions, from tax cuts to the appointment of conservative new constitutional judges, find the anonymous right.
But at the latest, as Donald Trump, according to Anonymus, wanted to prevent personal resentment from putting the US flag on the White House at half-mast for the late Senator John McCain (Republicans), that had "overflowed the cask" for him.
Anonymus: Trump "deserves to be fired"
The author also practices self-criticism in his essay of September 2018. At that time, his text still contained the suggestion that the "adults" in the administration could control the president and prevent Trump's biggest mistakes. He had "fundamentally wrong," the Times quotes from the book.
Main concern of the author: Trump "deserves to be fired," quotes the "Times" from the book of the anonymous. However, this should not be done by way of impeachment, because it does additional damage. Trump should not be re-elected, otherwise the US was in grave danger.
Why the author remains anonymous, he explains, according to "New York Times" with the fact that Trump always respond to criticism with personal attacks, and thus distract from the content.
The rather negative book review of the Times concludes with a statement by Trump, which according to Anonymous should also have fallen in the White House. Several media cite the sentence in response to Trump on a seemingly too complicated written memo. The president has raged, Anonymous writes: "What, damn shit, is that? Those are just words, a bunch of words, that does not mean anything."
