    To rephrase this: the only reason for McMaster to stay on the job now is that he can still be a guardrail against accidental nuclear war.https://twitter.com/dandrezner/status/868499671446147072 …

    McMaster has had a brutal two weeks, but I'd like to think that he would handle this scenario as well as Zbig. https://twitter.com/nktpnd/status/868293429167620097 …

        It's an excellent, sure. But a far cry from "the adults are in charge" rhetoric of a few weeks ago.

        The other way he can be a guardrail is to hold a press conference saying he resigns and call for our President's resignation or impeachment.
