Trump wanted Comey to throw journalists in prison

It occurs to me that the only way unclassified information coming from the executive branch could be a considered a leak is if the operation of the executive branch is being kept secret from the people.

Yeah, and Trump would never, for instance, ask for an investigation to be shut down against one of “his” guys, even if he had committed treason, I’m sure.

Someone leaked that they try to put his name in every paragraph to keep him reading.

That’s just pathetic.

If that doesn’t pan out, perhaps if it’s on his phone, has his face, and sings to him?

The ongoing saga of the briefing documents really demonstrates Trump’s cognitive issues:

  • Can’t read a concise 3-4 page document, has to be made a single page
  • Can’t read a single page, unless it’s all bullet-points and graphics
  • Won’t read single pages of bullet-points unless his name keeps appearing in them

(And then there was analysis suggesting that the reason why various aides were appearing on cable news programs to talk about policy was not to describe Trump’s views, but to try to convince Trump of those policies because that was the best way to get through to him.)

Early jokes about how the briefing documents would be reduced to 140 characters turned out to be prophetic, not satirical.
