        There is another scary side to this. Had a discussion with US generals about whether tweets counted as orders. Everyone said, of course not, until it was remarked that SecState Tillerson was fired by tweet. Room went silent. Untested waters here...

        Paul Ryan: "I don't comment on his tweets. Those are irrelevant" Some in media: "Unlike Obama, Trump just tweets and it has no real damage to others"

        Spicer really dropped the ball early on by insisting Trump's personal tweets held official status. If he'd said "No, only those from the official POTUS account are binding", that might have helped somewhat.

        Ffs. If this POTUS is so dangerous why aren’t those a$$holes doing something about it instead of just providing anecdotal stories to journalists? Don’t they have a sworn duty to protect citizens and make that a priority? Repeatedly keeping Trump from effing up sounds dangerous.

        I'm pretty sure they're all under duress. Call me a crazy conspiracy theorist, but it sure seems like it.
