So once again everyone is arguing about whether it was in his briefs

Some people say it wasn't in his briefs. Maybe they are saying that because sometimes when it wasn't in his briefs there were pay-offs involved, and now once again, there are pay-offs involved. Maybe that is why some people are saying that

But there are other people who know about him and pay-outs who say that it would have been out of his briefs only briefly

Then again, there are people who think it is almost always out of his his briefs, so maybe we should ask who briefly put it in his briefs and who took it out again?

There is so very much to think about here. I think I will give my brain a rest

so that the rest of the conversation is about whether whether he was briefed or not, when everyone knows he was immediately.

Instead of going after Trump for what we all know is treason.

Let them insist from the swamp that it’s not.

Argue about a minor detail to distract from the substance.


The GOP spin machine does that all the time: Find some detail, argue about that, and then, no matter the outcome, when that is resolved, declare the issue done and over and sweep it under the rug.


WHERE he got the info isn’t the important part. The fact that he DID get the info IS the important part.


In a week we’ll find out it wasn’t explicitly in the PDB and the GOP will declare it all fake, even though it’ll turn out that it was brought to his attention in many other ways. But that won’t matter because the cult of 45 will have heard what they wanted, got the smokescreen they needed, and moved on.


It’s what they do. The solution is to not get caught up in HOW it was brought to Trumps attention but focus on the fact that it WAS DEFINITELY brought to his attention.

Major story coming. BTW,the NY Times as well as other Print Media,as a rule tell the White House they are about to drop a major Story about someone in the White House.

Trump knew this was coming,that is why the Tulsa,and Phoenix Dog and Pony show.

Old Boris Johnson will have his day in the coming week. Appears the Guardian sat on this same story for quite some time knowing the Covid Story was holding the front page.

Trump and his Ding A Lings knew this was the Story that will turn the Military Vets against him as well as the Hundreds of Thousand effected Military Families.

Prior to their discussion about bringing him to Camp David.

He is a traitor and a liar.
