CNN’s Gloria Borger: Every Story Is as Hard as Jell-O Until the President Decides Who to Fire

RUSH EXCERPT:

BORGER: "You know, it wasn’t just me, Brooke. It was me and my colleagues and people at other news organizations were all hearing the same things. And I think that, you know, she had to go in to the president. He put the cabosh on it. He can say for whatever reason okay I’m not going to do that now. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t have a replacement. Everything is up to the president. Every story is hard as Jell-O until the president decides that. Is the way it is. We can report and Kaitlyn is absolutely right. We live in this echo chamber where we talk to people inside the White House, people who were recently of the White House but no longer, people who are friends of the president. He tends, himself, to muse aloud about, boy, I would really like to get rid of that one or who do you think could come in and be my new chief of staff and on and on."
