Lion Heart 15,041 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Please take a moment to read the final meeting between Trump, Powell, Guiliani, Flynn, and other WH staff officials and the madness that ensured. This was around the time that the Trump admin was considering naming Sydney Powell as a special counsel to investigate false claims of "foreign interference" in the election. Preview: At its essence, the Powell crew's argument to the president was this: We have the real information. These people — your White House staff — don't believe in the truth. They're liars and quitters. They're not willing to fight for you because they don't want to get their hands dirty. Put us in charge. Let us take control of everything. We'll prove to you that what we're saying is right. We won't quit, we'll fight. We're willing to fight for the presidency. On some level, this argument was music to Trump's ears. He was desperate. Powell and her team were the only people willing to tell him what he wanted to hear — that a path to stay in power in the White House remained. The Oval Office portion of the meeting had dragged on for nearly three hours, creeping beyond 9 p.m. The arguments became so heated that even Giuliani — still on the phone — at one point told everyone to calm down. One participant later recalled: "When Rudy's the voice of reason, you know the meeting's not going well." Giuliani told Trump he was going to come over to the White House. The president, having forgotten about the others on the line, hung up and cut multiple people off the call. Herschmann, Cipollone and Lyons left the Oval Office, but soon discovered that the Powell entourage had made their way to the president’s residence. They followed them upstairs, to the Yellow Oval Room, Trump's living room, where they were joined by Giuliani and Meadows. Trump sat beside Powell in armchairs facing the door, separated by a round, wooden antique table. Giuliani sat in an armchair to the right of them, while Byrne and Meadows sat on a couch. Byrne wolfed down pigs in a blanket and little meatballs on toothpicks that staff had set on the coffee table. Herschmann was primed to brawl and ready to dump on Powell. It had been a long day. "Rudy," he said, turning to Giuliani, "Sidney was just in the Oval telling the president you don't know what the **** you're doing. Right, Sidney?" He turned to Powell: "Why don't you tell Rudy to his face?" "Eric, really it's not appropriate," Trump replied curtly. "What's not appropriate?" Herschmann shot back. Turning to Powell, he said, "Why don't you repeat to Rudy what you just told the president in the Oval Office — that he has no idea about the case and that he only just began to understand it a few hours ago." It didn't take long for the yelling to start up again. They were now in hour four of a meeting unprecedented even by the deranged standards of the final days of the Trump presidency. Now it was Meadows' turn, blasting Flynn for trashing him and accusing him of being a quitter. "Don't you dare challenge me about whether I'm being supportive of the president and working hard," Meadows shouted, reminding Flynn that he'd defended him during his legal troubles. ... https://www.axios.com/trump-oval-office-meeting-sidney-powell-a8e1e466-2e42-42d0-9cf1-26eb267f8723.html ▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batwings 12,957 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 My favorite part is where they describe how at one point, everyone was fighting, and Trump just got up and wandered away into his private dining room. Which basically symbolizes the entirety of Trump's presidency. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
