Trump spokesman just backtracked: He was never going to reveal anything new on hacking on Tue/Wed.

Instead, Spicer said that Trump will be talking about his conclusions so far.

And while Spicer loves to harp on the fact that Trump hasn't had the briefing yet and that the report isn't final, he doesn't seem to mind that Trump will tell the public his personal, worthless, fact-free speculations.

According to the Fuhrer, he knows something no one else does and he was going to fill us in on Tuesday or Wednesday. We don't need a recap of his ponderous, ignorant blabbering.
