It is very clear that Trump overrode her advice (and possibly Vance’s).

I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't finish this term. There is clearly something else going on in Trump’s mind that he isn't sharing or aligning with regarding his cabinet.

Her comments on FISA were similar. She was like “this is what the president and intel community want.”

They don’t all have to agree on every decision and it’s a positive thing if they don’t. Adversity breeds excellence; not a bunch of yes men. The only thing that matters is they support each other publicly which seems like they have more or less.

This. The last admin wasn’t even run by the President. Cabinet met like 3 times in four years. Look what that bred

These type of arguments also conveniently leave out the fact that the conditions in Iran have never been more advantageous for the overthrow the Islamic Republic, the death cult that has been in power for the last 50 years.

That's not even remotely important. The important thing is that they make wise decisions on behalf of the American people and not have some LinkedIn level circle jerk of telling everyone how awesome and right they are.

Whatever you think about her views she has always seemed pretty principled which is rare in that town these days. I’m sure she hates what has happened and being involved in it. I expect her to step down soon as well.

So mainly just the optics?

She keeps speaking in 3rd person and seems to be distancing herself from these decisions. She seems to be making an effort at being as professional as possible, so the optics, yes. I prefer for our Director of National Intelligence (who most of us were excited about) to have more influence than Lindsey Graham. Even the optics are struggling to portray this at this point.

It's clear that she knew Trump's views on Iran and if it upset her that much then she should not have applied for the position.

In other words, your thread is dumb as frick

Why do people think that she's going to step down because she may have disagreements with her boss? That's absurd. She's career Intel and she is currently at the top of her profession. She is well beloved by the MAGA base at this point and if she still has future political aspirations she would be well served to continue to do her job.

And yeah, she is principled. You know what principled people who work for the president believe? That they serve at the pleasure of the President. She's not going to step down unless he asks her to. And why would he? She kicks arse.

The real good stuff will start two years from now when Vance speaks publicly on a ton of questions about iran.

I won’t be surprised if he’s very plain spoken and I won’t be surprised if Trump attacks him and I won’t be surprised if a lot of posters on this Board start calling Vance a compromised foreign agent because of his wife and start deep throating Rubio and swallowing.

She should learn to play golf and get on the course with Trump like Lindsey does.

At this point Tulsi is essentially DNI in name only.

Lindsey Graham is more of our DNI than Tulsi.

This is literally retarded.

Not only is she the DNI and a cabinet level official, but Trump is her Commander in Chief. She still serves to this day. You people are reading this shite entirely wrong.
