“President Trump’s declaration that ‘I don’t have an attorney general‘ was not merely the cry of an executive feeling betrayed by a subordinate,” the Washington Post reports.
“It was also a raw expression of vulnerability and anger from a president who associates say increasingly believes he is unprotected — with the Russia investigation steamrolling ahead, anonymous administration officials seeking to undermine him and a referendum looming in the Nov. 6 midterm elections, the results of which could potentially lead to impeachment proceedings.”
“Publicly, at least, Trump is going through the ordinary motions of being president… Behind the scenes, however, Trump is confronting broadsides from every direction — legal, political and personal.”
