      Chris Geidner Retweeted Jim Acosta

      If any White House staffers were "stunned" by today's developments — a guilty plea that has been telegraphed for two months and an 8-count guilty verdict in a trial that had significant documentary evidence — they've been asleep at their desk for the past six months.https://twitter.com/Acosta/status/1032085715583160320 …

      Chris Geidner added,

      Jim AcostaVerified account @Acosta
      Source familiar with internal WH discussions says WH staffers were “stunned” and “rattled” by the day’s bombshell developments. The source went on to say that it would take a “couple of days” for staffers to come to grips with what happened to Cohen and Manafort.

      (The other options that come to mind are lying or stupid, so I was trying to be nice.)

          Like most Trump followers, they live by choice in a bubble of limited and mis-information. Also, they think they are above the law because for the most part Trump has been for decades. Alll of that is to say: yes, they weren't doing their jobs.

          No. The reason is arrogance, they thought they would win.

          There's another variation of stupid: willfully misinformed. They're not asleep at their desks -- they're wide awake, clicking refresh on Breitbart and Infowars, w Fox News in the background.
