Is this some kind of record? Has someone stolen his iPhone?

That's my take.

The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,669 posts)Instead... silence. Is it because he hasn't read the report (or had it read to him in case it was more than a couple of pages long and didn't come with pictures and simple diagrams), or because there's something in it that's bad for him and he needs time to figure out how to spin it. Trump is never silent when he gets news he thinks is good for him. ¿Qué pasa?

(1,376 posts)a few minutes ago, nothing for almost a day; and in both cases, it was about the meeting with Caribbean leaders or RTing something from Melania Trump's account.
It's Kremlinology, but the obvious possibilities are:
1) The communications staff has finally taken complete control of his twitter accounts, and is holding off because they actually want to mount a planned media campaign;
2) The political staff doesn't have the report;
3) They have it and they are still reading it;
4) They do not have a readout from DOJ they feel they can rely on for a media campaign;
5) They have it and it amounts to an indictment guide for SDNY, NYAG, NYCDA, or one or more other prosecutorial agencies for various individuals, from Trump on down, and/or a roadmap for impeachment of Trump;
6) They have it and it exonerates the entire Administration, the Trump Organization, and the entire Trump klan going back to Germany.
My expectation is something between 1-5; six hardly seems likely, because if the report is a complete whitewash, they'd be screaming it from the rooftops...
Keep your powder dry.

(10,123 posts)They're sitting quiet until Barr responds with his summary, pretending they don't know.
Soon enough, they'll be howling about the injustice of being investigated for collusion, etc and how it is really Hillary who should have been investigated because she paid for the dossier, etc.
