I was under the impression that the President has an intelligence briefing every morning 365 days a year. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |

Donny doesn’t. Maybe a normal president who doesn’t have the attention span of a child.... “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

"A series of recently published presidential schedules show that he has been in just 17 intelligence briefings over the last 85 days. That's about the same frequency as two of his predecessors, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, according to a former CIA briefer who has written a book on the subject." https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/trump-s-calendar-just-17-intelligence-briefings-85-days-n967386 I am not defending Trump on this as I think he should listen more and tweet less, but it does seem that less time is spent on the daily briefing by Presidents than one might believe. |

With no "bubble" it is hard to keep the virus away. Someone brings it to the clubhouse and more get infected. Even the NBA "bubble" won't be perfect, but it could help. I wonder how much of this it will take before the season falls apart. The Marlins won't be playing for at least a few days and the season is set for 60 games in 65 days already. |

Perhaps, but the other two also know how to read reports. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |

I guess that justifies making factually incorrect statements about Presidents receiving briefings. |
