Four sources claim they overheard one of Trump’s most trusted advisers confide to CEO Safra Catz — who was under consideration for a job in the administration — that his boss was both an “idiot” and a dope,” adding that Trump with the smarts of a “kindergartner.”
A separate source also claimed McMaster disparaged Trump in a private conversation, saying he didn’t have the intellectual firepower to understand national security issues.

At 11 a.m. November 20, a male suspect entered the Rite Aid located in the 46000 block of Cedar Lake Plaza and handed the pharmacist a note which implied he had a gun. The note demanded prescription medication. The suspect left empty-handed. Shortly after 12 p.m., it is believed the same male suspect entered the CVS located in the 400 block of Enterprise Street. He again handed the pharmacist a note implying he had a gun and demanded prescription narcotic medications. The suspect was given prescription medication before fleeing.
The suspect is described as a white male and was wearing a white hooded sweatshirt with black strips, a red baseball hat with a “Make America Great Again” emblem, sunglasses, black pants and black shoes.
None of the nearly 10 pastors reached by phone said the allegations of sexual misconduct changed their views about Moore. Several said the allegations made them more proud to vote for the former judge.
“I don’t know how much these women are getting paid, but I can only believe they’re getting a healthy sum,” said pastor Earl Wise, a Moore supporter from Millbrook, Ala.
Wise said he would support Moore even if the allegations were true and the candidate was proved to have sexually molested teenage girls and women.
“There ought to be a statute of limitations on this stuff,” Wise said. “How these gals came up with this, I don’t know. They must have had some sweet dreams somewhere down the line.
“Plus,” he added, “there are some 14-year-olds, who, the way they look, could pass for 20.”
“This is really a case of the ends justifying the means for them,” Kruse said. “It no longer matters about the personal characteristics of the leader anymore.”
Raddish, who leads multiple Baptist ministries throughout the South and has previously been involved in Alabama politics, said there is no proof to the allegations against Moore.
“What we’re doing now is just convicting people and executing them, lynching them in the public square over allegations,” Raddish said. “We have the greatest judicial system in the entire world . . . but we’re acting like China and Russia right now.”
He invoked several racial terms throughout the interview. In addition to saying Moore was being lynched, Raddish said the Republicans who were turning on Moore were just “political field hands picking cotton on the Democratic plantation.”
“John McCain is the overseer,” he said. “Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan and the rest of them are the political field hands.”

Long form Buzzfeed
Warning, this new report is apparently from summer. I though it might be good to add that.
H.R. McMaster called President Trump an “idiot” and a “dope” in a private dinner with Oracle CEO Safra Catz. McMaster also criticized Steve Bannon, Rex Tillerson and said presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner has no business being involved in national security issues at all. According to Buzzfeed, Catz told one source “[the conversation was so inappropriate that it was jaw-dropping.”
Now, let’s stipulate that the President is a dope, many of his top aides are dopes and Jared Kushner has no business being in any position in government at all.
But there’s a detail here that seems pretty germane to understanding the story.
McMaster was brought in to clean up the Mike Flynn mess and over time he fired most or maybe now all the Flynn loyalists as his power in the job grew. Public reports suggest that his biggest and most consistent antagonist was a Flynn protege named Ezra Cohen-Watnick, a guy who seems to have worked with Rep. Devin Nunes in Nunes’ ‘unmasking’ escapade. McMaster tried to fire him shortly after he took over from Flynn but was blocked by Kushner and Bannon.
Finally, in early August, McMaster canned Cohen-Watnick.
So where did Cohen-Watnick land after finally getting bounced from the National Security Council? Funny you’d ask! He went to work in the DC office of Oracle.
