Trump will have succeeded in doing what the British Redcoats in 1812 failed to do – destroy the White House.

That orange shit-head really represents the lowest common denominator.

In all seriousness, Trump is headed for a cliff with this stuff.

As president, he has the legal authority to disclose any classified information he wants. But that authority evaporates on Inauguration Day.

He most likely will be unable to resist bragging about this kind of thing after he is out of office, in the same way he has casually revealed classified info to Bob Woodward and the Russian Ambassador. And formerly having the authority to talk about it, or garbling a bunch of details, will not be a legal defense.

As Scooter Libby found out, the intelligence community takes this stuff exceedingly seriously. For his own sake, he had better start listening to his lawyers about what he can and cannot say, although his track record of listening is well known.

Not to give Donny roo much credit, but he may be putting his huckster marketing spin on Supercalvacating Torpedos. He loves to spill the beans on classified military tech.

Supercavitating. Which can travel at hydrosonic speeds and cause super cavities. I hope this clears up the confusion.

SUPERCAVITATING HYDROSONIC EXPLOSIVES

Nope. Because “hydrosonic” is a toothbrush brand, not how supercavitating torpedos are ever described. He previously, repeatedly, mistakenly called hypersonic missiles “hydrosonic missiles,” got mercilessly mocked for it, finally figured out what he said wrong, and is now doing what he always does when he says something wrong: he pretends like he meant to say it. He literally always does this when he screws up. Also he can’t help but show off whatever new bit of information he’s managed to retain - i.e. that “hydro” means water, or that England and the UK are not the same thing (on his third official visit, having confused them publicly twice before). Not only does he think it makes him look smart, but that somehow it proves he didn’t make a mistake previously.

Supercalifragging. Look out - incoming!

Every now and then, the odd factoid from an intelligence briefing somehow makes it past the “Is this about me?” filters, gets folded, stapled, mutilated, chewed and digested, and some of the words end up in the Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV file. The little voices inside his head take it from there.


Basically an underwater rocket:
