1) So much angst over just the possibility of Gordon as Acting DNI. "Acting"

I find myself having a hard time getting that excited.

President Trump has reportedly said his preference was to kill the DNI position altogether, but decided to downsize instead.
2) Trump also said “I have a list of three people that I’m going to be working on over the weekend...I’ll be working on that over the weekend. And probably, on Monday, I’ll give you an answer.”
3) I personally think Dems concern over Ratcliffe had as much to do with what replacing Coats signified as Ratcliffe himself.

A new chapter.

The Mueller Report and testimony was a flop.

Impeachment is off the table.
4) Sure, I'd love to see an Admiral Rogers. But whomever Trump picks is okay w/me.

All this second-guessing - in many cases where I factually know people are wrong - can sometimes get a little tiresome.
5) I've even seen people say they are done w/Trump if he picks Gordon.

Really?

First, he only mentioned her as a possibility for Acting DNI.

Second, are you nuts? Good grief. Get a grip.
6) The same people saying Trump is becoming unstoppable are often the same ones panicking over every bit of news.

Well here's some news.

The corner has been turned. Trump won.

The question that remains is how many and who pay a price for their loss.
7) I might be a bit...touchy today.

But seriously. Let’s keep things in perspective.
8) Meanwhile, Trump has started highlighting corruption in Baltimore.

Which is really highlighting State, Municipal & Congressional Democrat corruption.

I'm sure he'll begin calling out other areas - Chicago, LA, etc. as well.
9) IMO, a new chapter is now beginning.

It's gonna be a lot of fun to see where it leads.
