To the editor:

Welcome to the latest episode of “The Apprentice.” President Trump has said “you’re fired” to national security advisor John Bolton for the unpardonable sin of rendering expert advice he didn’t want to hear.

No wonder Trump doesn’t fill so many positions—he only wants a few unprincipled sycophants who will always agree with him.

In this case, Trump couldn’t care less if a Camp David meeting with the Taliban was a bad idea. He wanted to make a deal, any deal, because he fancies himself an ace deal maker and it might help him get re-elected.

Trump remains as unstable and dangerous as ever. His egomania is a poor fit for negotiations with foreign warlords.

Note from KBJ: Stop projecting your instability onto President Trump, Jane.

Here is Ann Coulter's latest column.

Donald Trump's approval rating is 47%. Barack Obama's approval rating at the same point of his presidency (11 September 2011) was 42%.

The political right jumps on a Joe Biden gaffe faster than a duck on a june bug. When Joe gets to 12,000 mistakes—that’s about the number of false or misleading claims President Donald Trump has made since taking office, according to The Washington Post—let me know and I’ll get excited, too.
