WHAT IS IT ABOUT DONALD TRUMP?

What is it about Donald Trump that people are willing to trash their reputations to try to save him?  Recently I wrote three posts on Save A$$ Time for Bill Barr, Mike Pompeo, and Mike Pence.*

The sadist story is perhaps Rudy Giuliani who was a hero of 9/11 that earned him the title of America's Mayor and for decreasing crime in New York City.  I haven't written about him regarding SaveA$$ Time because his story is so well known.  He may be the one in a most hazardous situation because of recent developments regarding two of his associated being indicted for campaign finance violations.**  Why couldn't Giuliani just be happy with being called America's Mayor, but instead risk going to jail for Donald Trump?
Giuliani, an attorney for President Trump, said he finds it "extremely suspicious" that the arrest [of  Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman] was made in connection with an FEC matter that has yet to be resolved, and which Giuliani said is a civil matter. Giuliani acknowledged that both men "logistically helped" in his collection of evidence against Hunter Biden, and that they helped connect him with former Ukrainian top prosecutors Viktor Shokin and Yuriy Lutsenko.

Bill Barr seemed to leave his first tour as Attorney General with a good reputation.  Why has he risked going to jail for Donald Trump trying to save Donald Trump from himself and leaving his reputation in shambles?

Though Mike Pompeo is less well known than either of these other two, he makes statements about Donald Trump such as, "He is known to make extravagant statements about Donald Trump suggesting Trump is sent by God."  Talk about "over the top" language.

Mike Pence's story is also different from Guiliani, Barr, and Pompeo in that he seemed to be in trouble in Indiana politics and his political career was saved by Trump making him his running mate.  Thus Pence has a reason to be grateful to Trump for political career  Pence who is known as being a good speaker has repeatedly lied for the President.  His ability to do this with a straight face is amazing.  Pence's lying about Ukraine is a case in point.  It is hard to believe his political career will survive his Vice Presidency.  There are even rumors that Trump might ditch him in the 2020 election.

Why do these people do this?  What is it about Donald Trump that people are willing to trash their reputations for Donald Trump and follow Donald Trump over a cliff?  They should have talked to Republican Rick Wilson first.
In Everything Trump Touches Dies, political campaign strategist and commentator Rick Wilson brings his darkly funny humor and biting analysis to the absurdity of American politics in the age of Trump. Wilson mercilessly exposes the damage Trump has done to the country, to the Republican Party he served for decades, and to the conservative movement that has abandoned its principles for the worst President in American history.***
