to our lex con, texadus. i am chuck todd here in new york city. in britain it was parliament that said enough. in hong kong it was the people. and now we re left wondering if those are omens for the trump presidency or not. 21 conservatives went rogue on their leader yesterday, boris johnson, over his attempts to sideline parliament on brexit. today parliament defied him in a vote to delay brexit. these conservative leaders risked their careers to defy their leader and set in motion a process that could remove boris johnson from power. that s quite the contrast of how the conservative members of congress here have been unwilling to buck mr. trump. many of them if they want to buck him, they retire. see the texadus story. but senate majority leader mitch mcconnell won t even move on gun measures without things being blessed by trump first. another gop retirement reminds us in many cases republicans
topic. for those who believe the white house isn t in chaos, this only serves to confirm this. after this week, omarosa s actions have all but confirmed that. the thing that has been so, so powerful for omarosa is that she had the, quote unquote, receipts. i love that she s introduced receipts into the lex con. nobody in mainstream media used this term in this way. i get a thrill out of watching you say the word receipts but it was a colloquialism and now has gone mainstream so she s managed to make receipts a household word but she s managed to make herself a central figure in water cooler conversation and that leads to book sales. joe, you re the only one that s worked in a white house here. omarosa actually worked in one. yes, twice. but this white house on monday and tuesday said nobody cares about this except the journalists in this room. you people should stop giving her oxygen, this is a nonstory. she s a whatever, whatever, whatever. the president called her all

me. the impersonators tend to break trump down into body parts. a lot of it is the squint and the lips. yeah, he does a weird side eye thing. but the good thing is that everything is within the same alex con, you know, everything is tremendous, fantastic, incredible or it s a total disaster, lightweight, loser. john dee domenico is no loser, he won with his jokes about replacing obamacare. and it is going to be trump first aid canities. inn impersonator not in the contest. and then bring in the arms. his fake trump now hosts an entire show on comedy central for impersonators it s not the wig it s what s under it. i love the way he stops and thinks, like he s going to come up with something, you know, then all of a sudden he says terrific. jeannie moos, cnn, new york.
