As soon as I heard about Drumpf's Intelligence briefing I became sick to my stomach

and it has continued all day.

Darn thing is I heard it on Blll Press's show at 5 AM this morning.

So when do we see the debut of the Grand Bumbler and his new seedy gang of sewer dwellers?

1. I do not think t-rump was privy to any...

sensitive material...I am hoping the briefing gave him some non-damaging info just to see how fast it hits the airwaves.

2. Whatever they told him, we'll all know about it soon enough n/t

3. That's pretty much what I hope

I don't worry so much about what he might say during a public appearance. I worry more about what he tells his evil cohorts.

4. The briefings aren't necessarily full of secret information

Most of the Intelligence and Security briefings are to inform the candidates of the many different activities that are occurring around the nation and the world. The briefings detail the locations, circumstances, parties involved and official position of the United States Government in each case. The purpose of the briefings is to give the candidates an understanding of the US's activities and positions so they'll have a base-line understanding of the circumstances one of them will inherit.

They are probably detailed, comprehensive, confusing and exhausting. I suspect Donald Trump won't know where some of the countries are located and he certainly won't understand the geopolitics. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton probably already knows most of the information and her briefing will be nothing more than a brush up.

I fully expect Mr. Trump to come out of the briefing convinced he's a foreign policy expert but I'm equally certain that he won't be given any confidential information.
