I realize Axios sucks, but it was this or the Daily Mail, which was who Trump talked to, and fuck them.

That dumbass blurted out the location of Chinese missile silos in passing on Fox just last week.

Now that's funny as hell. What an idjit he is.

[-] emax_gomax@lemmy.world 118 points 2 months ago

Wow, what restraint. Now I definitely trust this guy who can't even trust himself with highly confidential information and the nuclear codes. /s.

[-] CeruleanRuin 90 points 2 months ago

The truth is he can't control what pops out of his mouth and he knows that.

[-] Zerlyna@lemmy.world 49 points 2 months ago

Sounds like he can’t control what comes out either end.

President Poopy Pants 💩

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

God I forgot about that interview

[-] DudeImMacGyver@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

I doubt he's that self aware.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 50 points 2 months ago

So he's definitely leaking intel, then.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

And leaking bodily fluids too most likely.

[-] MagicShel@programming.dev 42 points 2 months ago

He'll get his security briefings from Putin, thank you very much.

[-] InternetUser2012@lemmy.today 38 points 2 months ago

Translation - the dementia has gotten bad enough he has no idea what he can say and what he can't.

missed the . before com

https://www.axios.com/2024/08/22/trump-decline-intelligence-briefings-leak

Regardless if he receives them or not, unless every sentence contains his name, he won’t care. I doubt he can even read and comprehend the briefings at this point.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

I'm sure they have entire tomes of sentences with his name in it.

"Trump is the nation's greatest security threat", and lots of variations there in.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago

Weird. Thanks. Fixed.

[-] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

also: can't be accused of being intelligent

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Orrr, he doesn't fucking care anyway.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago
[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Their articles give way too little information.

[-] vxx@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

I'm sure I've read last week that his credentials for these briefings were revoked.
