Discussion: Spox Argues Trump Isn't Skeptical Of US Intelligence Data, Just Its 'Conclusions'

Because as everyone should know, Trump is well known for his acumen in intelligence analysis, much like his expertise in climatology, public health, cybernetics, number theory, hydrology, reproductive biology, cosmology, evolutionary biology…

Oh i get it…evidence is now raw data and the process of which they got that data is now a conclusion…And now dumpsters going to have his own security team evaluate the data and most likely counter the CIA/DNI/FBI…and then dismiss everything like it never happened…

what is red is now green…a cat is now a dog…

" Julian
Assange said “a 14 year old could have hacked Podesta” - why was DNC so
careless? Also said Russians did not give him the info!"

Tell us more, Trumpski. Why don’t you just replace all our intelligence services with Assange - since you only pay attention to him.

This is so unbelievable.

Did Spicer melt down at the end of the call?

Trump: I want FBI/CIA to gather Data and pass it on to who knows best: Putin/Kremlin. They will infer it correctly for us and let us know if they are spying on us.

“I think the data is one thing,” Spicer said. “Asking people how they came to the conclusions is quite another, and I think what he wants to hear from them is, how does the raw intelligence justify the conclusion that is being presented to them?”

PDB: “Osama bin Laden determined to strike in US”

But what does it really MEAN???

Sean Spicer will explode before Trump has vacated the White House. As in, literally explode…the man is a rattling boiler cranked up to 11 by the idiot-in-chief.

Mamma Mia, that’s a spicy bullshit meatball from Sean Spicer right there. It’s like the Oracle at Delphi—Trump makes intemperate attacks on anything he feels antagonistic toward for whatever sick reason he might have, and Spicer, Conway, Priebus et al. come out and say in soothing terms what he really meant which isn’t disturbing at all, no, not at all. You don’t have to get into the specifics, like Trump obviously impugning the credibility and motives of the IC, because you’d have no time left in the day. Let’s just say people know what’s what without the happy faces being drawn on it. Nobody who’s paying attention is failing to see what’s in front of their noses.

So Trump is just getting “raw data” which he then analyzes himself? We’re totally screwed.

See, Lassie could just be jumping to conclusions - all she saw was Timmy going headfirst into the well, that doesn’t mean he’s still there.

Right?

Of course he’s not there. He came out the other side. You know - in Ghina.

And again, Trump says something that loudly demonstrates his ignorance, and his team of bootlickers has to come out and twist everything to make it only seem like Trump was a bumbling idiot initially. If history is any indication, expect Trump to continue making the same assertions even after the Friday briefing. Then, nothing will happen.
