In reply to the discussion: Russia bounty intelligence 'may have been' in Trump brief but wasn't deemed 'actionable' [View all]SergeStorms
(19,201 posts)45. He doesn't read them anyway.
If there's anything within the PDB his aides believe "will upset him" they don't tell him about it, either. Therefore, anything to do with Putin that wasn't complimentary to Trump's ego, would never have been discussed. Trump would have a hissy-fit, and he'd never believe it anyway because he thinks he and Putin are simpatico in every respect.
It sure would be nice to have a grown-up in the Oval Office again, wouldn't it?

Whether to read or meet over the PDB is not a matter of group consensus. It's the president's #1

"I believe", "I think". Still looking for the spin to let Tru3off the hook.

This kind of thing is no one's lookout. It's solely in the president's lap, no one else's.

Sitting on his thumbs and making personal deals is what the president is best at.
