Donald Trump has long had a mysterious affection for Russian president Vladimir Putin. While Trump has been known to switch his positions from the beginning to the end of a sentence on any number of things, his love affair with Putin has remained consistent.
Well, Saturday was Trump’s first call with the Russian autocrat as president. Therefore, patriots who allegedly work inside the White House have decided that it was time to let the American people know what really went on in that call. First, it seems that Trump is not trusted by some key Republicans, including Vice President Mike Pence, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus.
The insider leaks come courtesy of the @RoguePOTUSStaff account on Twitter. It is among a number of “rogue” government accounts set up in the aftermath of the Trump-imposed censorship of certain agencies that express opinions or share facts that are contrary to Trump’s message. It cannot be verified whether the creators of the account are, in fact, White House staffers, although they do have a surprising amount of information to share.
They reveal that Ryan, Pence, and Priebus think Trump is either lying or withholding information when it comes to being blackmailed by Putin. Therefore, they forced Trump’s hand, and Pence was allowed in on the call. The rogue Twitter account refers to Ryan, Pence, and Priebus as the #UnholyTrinity. While they publicly support Trump’s every nutty move, they don’t really trust him.
The account says that the three stooges were most unsettled by Trump’s “suspicious” behavior while on the call with Putin, and they now seem to be coming around to the idea that the American president is really being compromised by the Russian dictator. Here are the tweets in question:
#UnholyTrinity insistence to monitor Putin call was due to concern POTUS hasn't told full story about Putin attempts at blackmail.

After call, #UnholyTrinity do not seem to have had any fears allayed. POTUS behavior during call said to be suspicious. #POTUSindistress

#UnholyTrinity urging POTUS that if Putin is compromising him to allow them to help. POTUS continues to deny, despite firm intelligence.

Bannon says to take POTUS at his word. Probably has more to do w/ his attempts to control WH over Priebus. Not believed to know anything.

This is terrifying. If true, Vladimir Putin is all but running our nation - through Donald Trump.
Given these issues and the GOP’s blatant refusal to impeach Trump, it is more important than ever to #RESIST.
