.MaddowBlog: Targeting whistleblower, Pres. Trump intensifies retaliation campaign.
Donald Trump has been away from the White House over the holidays, spending time at Mar-a-Lago, the private club he continues to own and profit from. Politico reported yesterday that the president “cuts loose” at the venue, where he’s “comfortable” and feels “liberated.”
The Atlantic’s David Frum published a piece this past weekend that argued, “Trump’s tweeting in the past two days was so frenzied and the sources quoted were so bizarre – including at least four accounts devoted to the Pizzagate-adjacent conspiracy theory QAnon, as well as one that describes former President Barack Obama as ‘Satan’s Muslim scum’ – as to renew doubts about the president’s mental stability.
Regardless, the damage was done. On Dec. 26, Trump used Twitter to promote a Washington Examiner report that included the name of the CIA official believed to be the intelligence community whistleblower, and two days later, he upped the ante.
