Trump is 'rattled' as White House descends into 'finger-pointing': Axios founder
The shooting and killing of 37-year-old Alex Pretti by DHS agents in Minnesota on Saturday has not only led to a shakeup within the department, but also has Donald Trump trying to regain his footing as the turmoil spreads to his own inner circle.
Appearing on MS NOW’s “Morning Joe,” Axios founder Jim VandeHei explained that the Trump administration is finding itself in a bind with no clear pathway out over the ensuing uproar that has Republicans questioning what is going on within the administration.
Speaking with co-host Mika Brzezinski, VandeHei grew animated as he remarked, “It just shows just how scared Republicans are to say what they really think, especially at a moment where I've never seen the president in his staff this panicked.”
“You have the president of the United States blaming [DHS Secretary] Kristi Noem. You have Kristi Noem blaming [Trump adviser] Stephen Miller and the president. You have Stephen Miller blaming people much lower in the bureaucracy. And so, you have all this finger-pointing. Well, why? Because the president himself is quite rattled by this,” he elaborated.
“He [Trump] looks at those images,” he observed. “You can't look at that video and come to any other conclusion. And for those that are still skeptical, go to the New York Times and look at that recreation they did yesterday. There's no way you can walk away with any other interpretation of what happened.”
