4. the meeting is in secret so I bet Trump says he was just campaigning

I believe Trump will say he was just dising the intel officers for votes but he really loves them because they are the best.

I still think Trump is going to give up on his faithful followers and move toward the center this making the swamp in DC multi depth but still a swamp

Someone else will just have to copy and paste his brain droppings.

8. I don't personally use Twitter, but I believe anyone is free to respond to anyone else.

If you're just an average citizen, I highly doubt the serial predator will respond to you.

No one is holding back and I'll bet the whole Trump twitter thing will pass very soon. But if you hurry, maybe he'll see your comments and retweet them, like he did the teenager's a couple of weeks ago.

I gotta know so I can tell the Wall Street Journal. They don't seem to have a clue!

15. New Hypothesis about what Donald is up to

Though it's hard to figure why Trump keeps disparaging the intelligence community, but here's a new hypothesis. He is trying to get all the career officers to resign en mass. That way he can replace all the career professionals with his hand picked goons. He's already decided to have his own security force to "augment" the Secret Service. Maybe he just wants all of his security forces to be loyal to him personally rather than to the Constitution or the Rule of Law.

16. Perhaps

but not likely. If he pisses them off enough, I'll bet his taxes get leaked and some other stuff that will sink him after he proves he has no intention of living up to his rhetoric... shouldn't take long.
