Sentence structure matters.
That's exactly what you said, yet you lack the intelligence to know that.

And you just lack intelligence, to realize what was said.

"America will never be destroyed from the outside,
if we falter and lose our freedoms,
it will be because we destroyed ourselves."
Abraham Lincoln

trump privately calling Rosenstein a threat to his presidency: report

President Trump has referred to deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Robert Mueller as the special counsel for the Russia probe, as “a threat to his presidency,” according to a report in The Washington Post.

The report, published Sunday, said Trump has referred to Rosenstein as “weak” and made fun of the deputy attorney general’s testimony last week in front of the House Judiciary Committee...

Rosenstein last week testified that he sees no cause to fire Mueller, who has for months lead the investigation into Russia’s attempts to meddle in the 2016 U.S. election and any potential ties between Trump campaign staff members and Moscow.

Mueller has secured guilty pleas from two Trump associates, including former national security adviser Michael Flynn. Mueller has also charged other two Trump campaign figures, including former Trump campaign CEO Paul Manafort.

Rosenstein, 52, has kept a relatively low profile throughout his decades working inside the Justice Department, a fact that likely helped him win bipartisan approval weeks ago when 94 senators voted to confirm his appointment to deputy attorney general. Only six lawmakers voted no.
His memo criticizing Comey -- issued amid the former FBI director's investigation into Russia's 2016 actions -- has cast doubt over his objectivity in the eyes of many Democrats. ...

The Bush administration nominated Rosenstein to the federal appeals court in Richmond in 2007...

"He is a man of extraordinary independence and integrity ... and great character," Vice President Mike Pence told reporters on Wednesday, noting that the longtime Justice Department official "came to work, sat down and made his recommendation" to fire Comey.
"He brought that recommendation to the President" and Trump agreed, Pence concluded.

So while the investigation gets closer to trump. The Dep. AG that was above reproach. Now becomes a FOX talking point “a threat to his presidency,” because he won't put limits on Mueller.

Meanwhile trump's talking points are:

As for the thinking of Americans:
Nearly six in ten Americans believe the US became more corrupt in 2017
New survey shows the White House is now considered the most corrupt institution in the US

The results of a survey released today by Transparency International show that compared to early 2016 more Americans now believe corruption is on the rise in the US and that the White House is the most corrupt of nine key institutions.

The levels of perceived corruption in government institutions were already high in 2016. Citizens are now more critical of their government’s performance in tackling corruption, and expressed concern in a number of areas.

The results of the US Corruption Barometer 2017 show:


-44 per cent of Americans believe that corruption is pervasive in the White House, up from 36 per cent in 2016.

- 58 per cent of people say the level of corruption has risen in the past twelve months, up from 34 per cent who said the same in January 2016.

- Almost 7 out of 10 people believe the government is failing to fight corruption, up from half in 2016.

-55 per cent gave fear of retaliation as the main reason not to report corruption, up from 31 per cent in 2016.

-Close to a third of African-Americans surveyed see the police as highly corrupt, compared to a fifth across the survey overall.

-74 per cent said ordinary people can make a difference in the fight against corruption, up 4 percentage points from 2016.
