Discussion: Donald Trump To Meet With CIA On First Full Day In Office

How is he getting there? Helicopter?

OK can some one please explain to me WTF Trump is doing with this hand/arm thingy? Does he think he’s on public transportation? Isn’t this the international signal to 18 wheel truckers to blow their air horn? I know it’s not the Black Power signal, well since Trump ain’t black and no way no how doesn’t he think they should have any power, so WTF is this?

Would love for this to be recorded and made public as my guess it will be little more than a Bannon/Trump led directive about not leaking information and threats if to anyone who says, infers or promotes up the line of command anything that goes against King Trump.

The event just ended and it was a circle jerk. Trump was again off on a monologue about how many times he appeared on Time magazine, how terrible the media is, and how it looked like there were a million people in DC yesterday even if they reported 250,000. It was just an unorganized, self-aggrandizing rant and those same intelligence officials (who are well educated) may be clapping, but some have to be thinking inside, ā€œOh God, how will we manage this impending disaster?ā€

Classic NPD right there, Ralph.
I’d love to be a bug on the wall to listen to the mutterings in the crowd considering how the shitgibbon insulted these folks. Yesterday on the Onion there was an article about trump lecturing the intelligence community as if he were the fount of intel information and not them. It was a hoot to read. I’d do a link to the article but it’s no longer up at the Onion.

Hoping to call off the hounds. Good luck!

Well at least DT hasn’t turned the Resolute Desk into kindling.

SEAN SPICER TWEET:

.@POTUS to visit @CIA this afternoon. Event is over capacity at 300+ Excited to thank the men and women of the intelligence community.

Shouldn’t Trump be meeting and thanking Putin’s intelligence community instead?

I think there’s a pretty good chance Trump has some sort of undiagnosed mental condition and I’m afraid it’s going to get worse.

Just listened to it on YouTube. I’ve never heard anyone talk like that outside of an institution. Most of it was irrelevant rambling, and he flatly denied having any conflict at all with the CIA, it was all the lying media. And crowd size, and it didn’t rain during his speech, and his uncle at MIT and on and on. Insanity.

You mean in addition to the obvious NPD, right? Because these days he seems completely unable to direct his thoughts—he just rambles aimlessly. You’d have to sit down with transcripts from similar situations going back a few years or more to really be sure, but he certainly seems to be getting worse to me.

Dump’s crazy like a fox. He’s laying down the marker to career employees … their Constitutional duties are now limited to making his world views real :facepunch:

Trump really, really wanted Pompeon place. Didn’t happen.

Look up Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

trump had his little CIA get together and spoke I, I, I, I , me. me, me Oh how great I am. Thousands turned out to admire me. The thing is he did his rant in front of the CIA memorial, the stars with no names for people killed working for …us. Did trump acknowledge them? Did he say anything about others? no, just how great he is, How big his crowds were (his estimate was 1.5 million people, other estimates were 250,000.)
If I were a CIA person I would have been severely insulted by trump’s disjointed rant.
I guess we get to experience this now on a daily basis. Pathological arrogance is the new normal for the White House…

Oh I’ve been reading about NPD since before he won the Republican nomination including narcissists tendency for emotional incest. I’m just curious at what point it crosses into psychopathic aggression.

The snark in me says…when he pounds the ā€œlaunch missilesā€ button. But seriously I think trump has well and truly passed into psychotic pathology to the point that all of us are in mortal danger from him. I don’t think I am being flippant or over reacting to this guy either. Listen to a few sentences (if you can) of his rant today at the CIA. It’s all me, me, me in classic NPD. It’s painfully obvious.
If I were to dip into snark again I’d sayā€¦ā€œAmbien needed at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave STAT!!!ā€
We are dealing with serious mental disease in my opinion. And it has me scared. Seriously scared.

I can’t get the proper height and form because…he’s old?

Who knows? Maybe he was a little cold? The stiff arm was too exerting? Then again the way the little German used to do it was accepting all the salutes.
