Politics Donald Trump can only stay focused on intelligence reports if his name is in them

Donald Trump can only stay focused on intelligence reports if his name is in them, according to officials close to him.

Staff members are being forced to strategically include the President's name in the reports to ensure that he keeps reading and doesn't get distracted, they said. National Security Council officials make sure "as many paragraphs as we can because he keeps reading if he's mentioned", they told Reuters.

The trick is part of a range of techniques developed by officials to keep Mr Trump's infamously short attention span focused on important information.

Officials have also learnt to keep all reports to a single page, and to include as many pictures, maps, charts and graphs as possible.

Yuk. It's like mentioning the Lakers and lawnmowers in posts directed at HCP.

If Hillary hadn't flip flopped on illegal immigration she would have won. I hope people know that.

"Donald Trump supporters can only stay focused if Hillary Clinton is mentioned."

Oh, so unfair. Actually expect him to be, you know, intelligent!

Like a 7 year old. Really. No one ever said no to him. So the things others learn in early childhood he never did.

To be fair, there is too much going on. Information overload.

That's what happens when you burn things down. Things get real busy.

Just great! He has a short attention span along with an egotist abnormality.

This gif is creepy. I hope I don't get a nightmare from it. Is it a morphed LmA?

Trump to unveil plans for an ‘Arab NATO’ in Saudi Arabia

Behind the scenes, the Trump administration and Saudi Arabia have been conducting extensive negotiations, led by White House senior adviser Jared Kushner and Saudi Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The discussions began shortly after the presidential election, when Mohammed, known in Washington as “MBS,” sent a delegation to meet with Kushner and other Trump officials at Trump Tower.

After years of disillusionment with the Obama administration, the Saudi leadership was eager to do business. “They were willing to make a bet on Trump and on America,” a senior White House official said.

In that meeting and during a follow-up meeting three weeks later, the Saudis proposed a broad elevation of the U.S.-Saudi relationship and proposed various projects to increase security cooperation, economic cooperation and investment, White House officials said. The Trump team gave the Saudis a list of Trump priorities, calling on the kingdom to step up actions to combat radical Islamic extremism, intensify the fight against the Islamic State and share the burden of regional security.

The president is looking for an answer to the question of how the United States can eventually hand over security responsibility in the region to the countries that are there, officials said.

Something the last 4 presidents tried.
Most, however, did not hand over security to the country that gave us the 9/11 hijackers.
