The Trump administration is a loss for everyone. The Paranoia and totally inept handling of leaks and whatnot is a sign of dysfunctional leadership. They are treating everyone, including their own staff, as an enemy.

So these two guys are part of Spicer's staff. I didn't know that. Thanks.
The obvious implication by what I said is that the leak is not coming from Spicer's staff. And you're welcome.

Damn dude, if someone in Spicer's staff isn't leaking the memos then just how in the hell would Bannon or Kushner know what is going on with Spicer's staff?

Sure, but the underlying problem is that the staff is not being loyal. It could be a personnel problem or the administration could be driving staff to do stuff like this. Either way, the buck stops with Trump. There's no one else to blame in this situation is there?

Trump will deflect to the fake news media and anonymous sources (smart, I think) but the real story is that the problem lies with the administration and no one else.

You don't think that those two would know what Spicer was doing? They probably ordered Spicer to do it. The damn White House counsel was involved.

The leaks are most likely coming from career WH staff or from holdovers. That's pretty obvious to me.

I consider it a win for myself and for the country. So you're wrong.

Sure thing buddy. You are right about one thing though, leadership. Something your side lacks.

Or they are trying to find the leak? Which one sounds more rational?

Obama thought wiretapping the Trump transition team was a national security issue. Then the IC leaked that...

Thry should smoke test the leakers. Tell different things to different people and watch how the information flows out. After that eliminate the leak by showing them the door.
