Trumpy too smart for daily briefings
“You know, I'm, like, a smart person. I don't have to be told the same thing in the same words every single day for the next eight years. Could be eight years — but eight years. I don't need that,” Trump said. “But I do say, ‘If something should change, let us know.’”I really question whether he actually wants to have this job.

What part of his statement is illogical?
M: "Nothing new today, President Trump"
T: "No changes from yesterday, President Trump"
W, Th, F: "Same as it ever was, President Trump".
That's just good time management on Trump's part.

I'll wait until sports pickle weighs in on what Trump actually said. Not what the video shows he said.

Missed meetings were relayed to Obama though PDBs. There is a big difference between reading the briefings and ignoring the information altogether.greenblood said:
