We're not going to pretend they're

valid and we're going to do what we're going to do and if supreme court wants to step in and somehow back you up they can have at it and i think now whether it was at the advice of the white house counsel's office or the ag i think trump now understands that he's been in a bit of a hole by how his administration has decided to handle these courts and when you add that up to all the other missteps with bondy the the appearances uh the embarrassing hearings the epstein thing i

I don't see how Trump had any other decision to make other than it's time for you to go and we're going to put someone else in there.

Right.

So I have something of a different perspective.

Having been a staffer, I worked on the Hill for a long time.

I worked for a presidential campaign.

And when you're a staffer, you have, I think there's a certain code you need to adopt, which is that you don't matter.

You are there entirely to serve the person that you're working for.

And Joe Kent was a staffer.

Tulsi's a staffer.

You might even say JD is a staffer.

The only important one there is Donald Trump.

And I think as a staffer,

When you have made the decision internally that I can't work for this person because I can't in good conscience implement these policies, I personally find it distasteful to see people do the big public spectacle, here's why I'm quitting.

I think you have a responsibility to quietly quit.

and go your separate ways.

Now, in defense of Joe Kent, he could have done what so many people in Washington have done for decades, which is stew privately and then do everything he possibly could to backstab and delegitimize the person he's working for.

That's what everyone in Washington does.

So bless him for actually having a fashion way of taking a stand and saying, I can't do this.
