In the midst of sharing GOP senators’ tweets, Hurricane Dorian updates and jabs at former FBI director James Comey Saturday morning, President Donald Trump took a moment to address the drama that has unfolded since his personal assistant Madeleine Westerhout was fired Thursday.
Politico reported Friday that Westerhout’s firing centered around bragging during an off-the-record dinner that she had a better relationship with Trump than his daughters Ivanka and Tiffany, and also that the President “did not like being in pictures with Tiffany because he perceived her as overweight.”
Trump appeared to address the report in a Saturday morning tweet saying that he didn’t think there was a reason for a confidentiality agreement to be used in Westerhout’s case and that he had forgiven her after she apologized. Trump then added that he loves Tiffany.
While Madeleine Westerhout has a fully enforceable confidentiality agreement, she is a very good person and I don’t think there would ever be reason to use it. She called me yesterday to apologize, had a bad night. I fully understood and forgave her! I love Tiffany, doing great!

Trump also tweeted that unlike Westerhout, there are “various people” he is suing such as former White House staffer Omarosa Manigault Newman for violating confidentiality agreements.
…Yes, I am currently suing various people for violating their confidentiality agreements. Disgusting and foul mouthed Omarosa is one. I gave her every break, despite the fact that she was despised by everyone, and she went for some cheap money from a book. Numerous others also!

Well, I, for one, am so very relieved to hear that. (Now, can we get back to plans to bomb hurricanes?)
Once again as far as i understand she talked about how drump disses his daughters not that she dissed them, is it really that hard to write a better headline? They way the headline written its like she was talking bad about his kids and thus got fired, rather then her talking about what a shitty dad he is.
“Soul Drain”
You have to want to write a better headline.
This is easily the most benign thing that has happened during Trump’s administration. There doesn’t appear to be any seedy sexual or criminal activity here. No abuse of power, no vindictive retaliation, no cheating, no treason.
This is it, folks: the high point, his best moment.
