Trump Record Makes Weak Case For Future Intelligence Briefings | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
REVOKE any and all clearances!
Trump is desperate angry and is in money trouble. This is a recipe for treason. No security briefs
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’.
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!
@Daisyrambob love this comment! seriously needed this stress reliever, ty!
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.”
especially when the briefs will be about him and Putin
Inciting a riot is a federal crime and felons don’t qualify for security clearances
@CoconutKev why, what’s going to happen this summer?
@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?
@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
@coconutkev Nobody cares about your lies and hate, traitor.
@frictionRx9 You appear to need help. Please seek it. Soon.
Future Presidents might need to phone Donald in prison to just check the correct spelling of ‘covfefe’…..
1 day until the TRAILER TRASH is removed from the white house
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
@Eastern Woods , they’ll need time to fumigate and disinfect, first.
Hopefully the man with the launch codes and briefcase is hiding in a Whitehouse bathroom for the day.
Can’t come soon enough!
In addition to “need to know” there should be a “capable of comprehending ” classification.
Yep, and that starts with, the ability to read.
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
Why would anyone share classified information to a lunatic?
Once he’s out he’s out!! Lose his number and definitely change all the clearance codes.
😂😂😂
Selling secrets would likely be a new thing for Trump, thus far he’s been giving them away for free.
I keep running into your seriously funny comments. So refreshing
free? deadlyoledon doesn’t do anything for free…
Hi again @༒ Di ༒ !
@Kid Mohair he’s a quid pro quo guy no question but he seems to do treason for free
Trump should be impeached,convicted and stripped of his title as President come Jan 20th.
Please Lord, hear my prayer!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Exactly!!!
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
He’s auctioning off pardons so of course he’ll sell intelligence. He’s a crook.
In other words, if she were still alive, he’d sell his own mother.
Pretty much.
Trump shouldn’t be allowed in future intelligence briefings, he betrayed America.
@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.
@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
@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.
Trump has no established relationship with intelligence.
😁😁😁
Give him an empty manilla folder, crayons and nothing else ✌😂
Give him deliberately falsified intel. When the Russians act upon it, we can prove Trump is guilty of espionage.
Southern Baptist author and Bible teacher Beth Moore“This Christian nationalism is not of God
Im hoping congress strips him of his presidential benefits as a result of being twice impeached.
