Cicero famously said :
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”
President Trump needs to take this quote and tape it to his desk, and look at it constantly, because his own administration is full of traitors:

Does the so-called “Senior Administration Official” really exist, or is it just the Failing New York Times with another phony source? If the GUTLESS anonymous person does indeed exist, the Times must, for National Security purposes, turn him/her over to government at once!

If this had taken place in Russia, Putin would have had authorities raid the newspaper, and collect evidence for a treason trial. The United States should go down this road now, as the kid gloves have been taken off by the puppets of the Deep State. Time for Trump to get some guts. You are the president, act like it, stop taking it.
