Trump Record Makes Weak Case For Future Intelligence Briefings | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

    1. Give him the important looking files but fill them with blank paper. He’ll then either never look at them or pass them on to his ‘contacts’ to decipher the ‘invisible ink’.

    2. He’d rather play golf. He only likes the prestige and trappings of the presidency not the actual work that goes with it. LAZIEST president ever!

    3. What if we gave him some secrets, but they weren’t important ones? Then when he tries to sell them we can finally send him to prison. I can see it now. Guy asks, “What are you in for?” and Trump says, “I sold top secret intel that Kamala was thinking about painting the white house pink.”

    1. @frictionRx9 but seriously, after this summer whats’ going to happen? and why wouldn’t there be a democrat left in! and what are you talking about, left in? left in where?

    2. @frictionRx9 that all sound very serious and devious, however, before I can commit to agreeing with you I will still need to see at least one link that verifies some or at least one of the narratives that msnbc and cnn ran that had the minorities inflamed, as I’m fairly unfamiliar with either platform due to getting most of my news from my local newspaper

  1. Future Presidents might need to phone Donald in prison to just check the correct spelling of ‘covfefe’…..

    1. Trump wanted a parade as he leaves the WH but the military declined. I would have let him have it. Start at 11:59 and have Secret Service pull him out of the limo at 12:01 because they now need it for Biden as the marching band disperses and Trump is left to walk alone

  2. When tRump outta office he must never ever be given Security Briefings & Intelligence Reports lest he sell them off to Putin/Russia, Israel, the Saudis or lord know who else

  3. Donald Trump hasn’t paid any attention to intelligence briefings for 4 years. Why are we even discussing him getting them once he leaves office!? He’d just try and grift off them anyway

    1. @frictionRx9 You’re a delusional Trump worshipper, missy. Do you really think anyone is ever going to take you seriously? Go play in the traffic. Your words have no value.

    2. @Simgor2 love how people delete their comments or block u when they get proven to be wrong lol… no wonder why so many people vote for trump lol

    3. @Lady Plumeria Yeah I tend to get that a lot when encountering Trump worshippers. They’re fools who consumed way too much koolaid and refuse to live in reality.

  4. Give him deliberately falsified intel. When the Russians act upon it, we can prove Trump is guilty of espionage.
