Twitter Flips Over Report That McMaster Is Out Too: Trump ‘On a Rampage’

President Trump is reportedly considering firing H.R. McMaster, and given how much chaos great energy there has been this week already, Twitter could barely handle this latest potential shake-up:

Two weeks ago: NBC reports McMaster is on his way out. Trump calls it “Fake news.”
Today: McMaster is fired.
The only consistency we have is the dishonesty of Donald Trump.

Looking forward to McMaster’s “Dereliction of Duty” followup, tentatively titled “Yeah Okay, I Know, Sorry. I Mean, Shit. Yeah. Look. I, I Dunno”

NEW: the game of musical chairs continues but Trump keeps on taking away chairs! McMaster is out:
“President Trump has decided to remove H.R. McMaster as his national security adviser and is actively discussing potential replacements.” https://t.co/AzcIyCQ7Tf— Amy Siskind (@Amy_Siskind) March 16, 2018
"… he wants to ensure both that the three-star Army general is not humiliated …" Because letting stories out there for weeks (or longer?) about considering removing him isn't humiliating? https://t.co/wyYraLeBV0

That’s an interesting way Trump has of making sure McMaster isn’t “humiliated”… by leaking that he’s lost Trump’s confidence and is on the way out. https://t.co/VwGYbg7Fj2 pic.twitter.com/OZj3KP9j4h

The president's reported rationale for dumping McMaster (which hasn't happened yet but may soon happen) — "his briefings go on too long and seem irrelevant"
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh https://t.co/mfcvJ1NRc7— Elise Hu (@elisewho) March 16, 2018
I often say that, if the Trump Administration turns out non-disastrously, the replacement of Flynn by McMaster one month in will be viewed by historians as a key and under-appreciated moment. I fear the removal of McMaster could be as important in the other direction.

He has been “out” for a while. Report is correct that Trump wants a new NSA. Nobody yet knows timing or identity of replacement. https://t.co/ZSu4ZlzXmm

Yeah, that plan is DOA. https://t.co/pOYtyhCKJk

Donald Trump has decided to fire H.R. McMaster, but to give him a soft landing and avoid humiliating him, Trump has directed John Kelly to invent a time machine and go back to warn McMaster not to take the job at all.

As WH denies McMaster is out, worth noting that WH officials had also denied others would be dismissed – like Tillerson, Comey, Flynn – before they eventually were
