Tim Alberta: terrible morale inside Trump campaign, anger towards the candidate from his staff

Tim Alberta
Re: my comments on CNN and MSNBC this evening... yes, there are Trump staffers who no longer much care whether he wins or loses. Not exactly breaking news. Hard to overstate how terrible morale is inside of this campaign—and how much anger/resentment is felt toward the candidate.

Again. His cabinet and white house fell apart, repeatedly. Most of the people that worked for him, hate him. He is an awful boss. Only a moron would vote for this dysfunctional loser.

Mitt seems so quaint and old fashioned now. Trump will probably just have them all killed because they know where the bodies are buried.

Yes.. I thought that was a good point to reiterate .. If he weren't a filthy rich deadbeat candidate he would be in Prison with his record of Flaunting the law and Convictions.. And wasn't able to buy off "judges" who don't follow the Rule of Law.

I have always appreciated his insights whenever he shows up on MSNBC, and everyone needs to read his books if they haven't already. Tim is truly one person of faith who walks it like he talks it.

The second best time is right after he’s sentenced. The third best time is right after he loses the election.

The fourth best time is ASAP.

His love of surrounding himself with CT pushing nutjob nazis tends to throw a monkey wrench into things. Normal people run from idiocy like this but unfortunately a decent percentage of our countrymen run toward it with open arms.

Please, oh please whatever gawds exist, let Karmala win, save our country and Democracy itself and send this lunatic to prison.
