Trump’s Order to Pam Bondi Was Intended to Be Private

Wall Street Journal: “On Sept. 20, Trump meant to send a private message to Attorney General Pam Bondi urging her to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey and his other favored targets…”

“Trump believed he had sent Bondi the message directly, addressing it to ‘Pam,’ and was surprised to learn it was public… Bondi grew upset and called White House aides and Trump, who then agreed to send a second post praising Bondi as doing a ‘GREAT job.'”

“The misfire provided a window into how, through command and chaos, Trump has executed a wholesale transformation of the Justice Department.”
