19. How long will it take tRump to get to lunch?

The briefing could have lasted less than 15 minutes

5. I was wondering if i needed coffee

11. Yeah, I was expecting something like a tweet storm starting at 12:15...

...which would imply that after 15 minutes he was no longer attending the meeting (at least mentally, although that cutoff was probably more line 15 seconds), but nope, looks like 45 to me.

20. Will he use a Star Trek teleporter to get to lunch?

6. Tillerson and Mattis

discovered that Trump couldn't follow content rendered in blocks of text, not even short blocks. So they tended to present things in bullet points. But even bullet points couldn't hold his attention.

7. IIRC, lots of colorful graphics . . .

Oh, and lots of coverage of what other people are saying about His Great And Unmatched Wisdom.

17. His name must be mentioned frequently to keep his attention, too. nt

8. Guessing it's more like 40 minutes for angry ranting,

most positive when it's triggered by element of the briefing suggesting something was heard, if not actually paid attention to or believed.

9. Its easy...

He out sources his intelligence to someone else...maybe even the Russians.

10. In order to brief his intelligence, do they call in a battery of third-grade teachers?

I can see it being extremely brief, with Sharpies and poster board........

12. Sorry but I imagine his briefing may occur in this format .

https://m.

Including the need to hide behind a curtain when presenting!

16. It's not funny.

None of this is funny.
