It’s funny how so many in the mainstream news media have suddenly become intelligence skeptics again.

With a POTUS who lies so consistently & is so completely deranged, I’m not finding it curious at all, Jay. This is a man who asked his advisors about “why can’t we invade other countries” & seems exceptionally trigger-happy / doesn’t seem to understand basic consequences.

Of all the reasons to complain about Trump, the idea that he's too into foreign interventions is a strange one, given what we know of him & his record.

Leaving aside the source, which is out of business now for a reason, there's a big difference between asking about all your options (even nutty ones) and pushing for a result.

sure. But what source is out of business now? The Associated Press ? https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/trump-pressed-aides-about-venezuela-invasion-official-tells-ap-n888816 … I don't understand. Still, there are too many stories about Trump asking about crazy options & shocked aides pushing back, for my tastes.

Oh, he asks wacky things all the time. Why it's important for good people to serve him & act as an internal restraint. My point is just that it's a misunderstanding of him to think he's too into invading other countries, when his worst instincts are in the opposite direction.

but you said the source is out of business for a reason. The story was cited as being from the AP / Associated Press ... and that NBC picked it up. It's from an anon. official : "official spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the discussions."

TP was a garbage source. Even their slant on reported facts was frequently laughably ridiculous.
