As if the "president" wouldn't know.

He probably realised his mate Putin wouldn't like it and it wouldn't work in his favour if they can't interfere in the election in Nov
newpotatocaboose67
All newspapers should now have ironic quotes around the ‘president’ until we have someone with at least an iota of competence

Ah yeah, the old "Where's Hunter?" bit. I remember when that was his go-to back in...wait a sec, this tweet is from yesterday. Goddamnit.

If Russia's goal was to destabilise the USA as a world leader, it seems to be working a charm. Reverse perestroika on the Americans?

A malicious threat against our troops and he somehow wasn't briefed... How fucking stupid do you have to be to believe that?

So, as a parent using cloth diapers; We should submerge him in a water and blue dawn for an hour, wash on hot, then hang him in the sun.
PizzaStation
What's worse Trump either A) Not listening when briefed, or B) The intelligence community not believing he could be trusted enough to brief?
Ezzybells
Nah, he was briefed, called Putin after to ask him if it was true, Putin said “no”, Trump believed him. Helsinki 2.0
ElvisCatStello
That is very true. I honestly can't answer that
ElvisCatStello
I guess B. because at least A. he could blame it on not having his daily dose of Diet Coke(aine) yet.
RecurringNightmare
there are two more options, for confidential information they coudl decide potus doesnt need to know, and for other stuff they could decide>
RecurringNightmare
>he doesnt need to be bothered with such unimportant things...neither is very liekly in this case though...<<<
NickRivieraMD
why are these the only two options? It's also entirely possible that he did pay attention and just decided not to do anything.
PizzaStation
More or less applies to option A, but applies malice and dereliction of duty.
Trimule
Both pro and con insiders have universally stated that he refuses to "read the daily intel brief" That is appalling to previous WH people
NickRivieraMD
yeah, that doesn't mean he gets no briefing. it means people have to tell him.
PangolinBan
It's absolutely inconceivable, even with this administration, that this kind of information would be witheld from the president. That'd 1/2
PangolinBan
2/2 be treason, plain and simple, and too many would know about it for anyone to get away with it.
PizzaStation
So option A it is.
PangolinBan
I think he pays attention when he hears "Russia" in the briefing. More likely he chose not to act on the info, at least not publicly.
PizzaStation
I think that is likely. I was just giving the options that assume Trump isn't lying when he says he didn't know for the Trump supporters.
PizzaStation
There are definitely worse options on the table once you start factoring in that he's not telling the truth about what he did/didn't know
hawkhandsaw
He's just confessing to being an out-of-touch commander. Someone who doesn't even read his security briefing. As an executive, what a loser!
Penthesilean
Grease and shit can serve a purpose. Don’t insult them with that kind of association.
ElvisCatStello
This is actually true haha! Damn you really have to be a nitwitted selfish, treasonous, etc. etc. etc. douche-canoe to be seen as less then
ElvisCatStello
shit and grease...
LewdSomnambulist
I'm sure it was in his daily briefing that he doesn't read
MacGarnagle

I’m getting real tired of this president “not knowing” anything. Didn’t know about this, didn’t know that guy screamed “white power”

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/politics/russia-afghanistan-bounties.html Here's the original source, and since has been confirmed by

other outlets. Even FoxNews on their site ran it and how conservatives were angry. I mean sure it was way down the page, but hey morethen

I thought they would cover it

If i've learned one thing on the internet, it is that "reliable" newspapers are all not trusted thanks to this admin and culture.
Draciusen
Bias is inevitable. It is up the reader to recognize and accept that, and come up with their own conclusions after heavy consideration.
APointlessBee
That's what I was taught, but colleges are ivory towers, news is "slanted," gov is the enemy, foreign countries are socialist... Impossible

YoSoyMilk
There’s no way this kind of information doesn’t cross his desk. I’m sure he was just too busy tweeting and watching Fox to read the brief
duncandixoncoffee
All while jerking it with his free hand
Beiki
Even assuming he was never told. He's announced no steps to penalize Russia for this.
charlie2979
It's well reported that he doesn't read briefings and likes things condensed.
jm151
IIRC reading that he doesn't really read or pay attention to anything that doesn't keep mentioning his name
FiveShiftOne
Fox said some things he didn't love so he hates them now. Now he only watches the even worse, less factual OANN.
DomeGuy
This SHOULD cross his desk, but the PDB has been reduced to two pages with charts and "Trump" everywhere. It was big for good reasons.
Dinos91
Either he was briefed and didn't pay attention of care, or he wasn't briefed. That last one is almost 100% not the case
NickRivieraMD
Or he was briefed, paid attention and cared, and decided not to do anything.
PizzaStation
There's really no scenario that doesn't make Trump look bad here.
NickRivieraMD
IF anything I think that was the worst option, and the most likely.
PizzaStation
And if somehow he wasn't briefed, what does that say that the intelligence community didn't think he could be trusted with the information?
ScoundrelPDX
... to have the brief read to him, by someone who explained all the big words.
DavidBrooker
Trump was obviously briefed. But if the DNI wants to clean the blood off Trumps hands, he needs to resign.
hedgehogsinhats
Look upp the current DNI and what he did before taking that position. Especially his position of Trump & Russia, Obama etc. It's frightening
TheThirstyMoose
Got a tl;dr?
drcookieninja
Lied on resume. Hates illegal migrants. Helped Trump avoid several gov investigations. Publicly staunch supporter. Called Russian probe hoax
camobranson
Obviously. I mean I went there and told him myself!
DavidBrooker
It doesn't even matter. If the DNI told him - and lied to the press about it - he needs to resign for covering up a scandal. If he 1/2
DavidBrooker
didn't warn Trump, he was negligent in his role as DNI, and needs to resign. 2/2
camobranson
Sure, and if he resigns people on here will say Trump only did it to cover up that he was told. It doesn't matter what happens anymore.
pseudomanitou
When you say, Trump was briefed, I'm also aware Trump has the attention span of a gnat - even in world threatening updates...
georgejimmydoodle
It was certainly in the PDB, but handing a written document to him has the same outcome as handing one to a corpse.

No,but what he can do is talk the older (R) justices into resigning before his term is over so he can nominate younger conservatives.

If truth weren't an absolute defence against libel, people would be in so much trouble for hurting DJT's feelings like that ….

There's solid grounds for a declaration of libel-proof https://www.thebusinesslitigators.com/the-defamation-proof-plaintiff-doctrine.html

It's the closest thing to self-awareness I've ever seen from him. Publicly acknowledging that he's not universally adored... or even half.

Alrathra
And another 5:4 vote for the Constition today! Trump accidentally made a good pick! I surprisingly like him as a chief justice.
DetectiveSloth
Roberts wasn't picked by Trump. And he was a total doormat during the impeachment trial. He had the opportunity to 1/2
DetectiveSloth
bar certain politicians from the jury for working with Trump on his defense and failed to. He also could have issued more orders.
JadeNB1729
Roberts is GWB appointee, not DJT. Gorsuch meh. Kavanaugh as bad as expected.
Alrathra
Ah fuck thank you for correcting me. I literally woke up, saw the good news and swapped over to browse memes to not read anything else.
JadeNB1729
No worries! I hadn't seen the news, so some good news for me, plus I don't have to credit DJT with accidentally doing something good.
