... forget who it's attributed to, but the phrase "Never let a good emergency get away" seems to be standard fare for scare mongers worried about their gravy train crashing.
Now I remember ... it was Winston Churchill .. and the correct version was/is "Never let a good emergency go to waste".
If Donald Trump is so close to the Ruskis, why couldn't he get Vladimir Putin to put novichok in Xi Jjinping's lipstick?

It was Rohm Emanuel. He was 0bama's chief of staff and more recently Chicago's mayor.

Then Rohm Emanuel has para-phrased Winston Churchill. Not the first to do so either.
