President Donald Trump continued to disparage his intelligence officials on Thursday and insisted "time will prove me right" on sensitive foreign policy matters like North Korea and the Islamic State.
When asked if he has confidence in CIA Director Gina Haspel and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats to give him good advice, Trump replied: "No. I disagree with certain things that they said. I think I'm right. Time will prove me right, probably."
That was quite a statement, even for Trump, today that the intel chiefs told him they were misquoted when they disagreed with him in their testimony yesterday. Oh, my lying ears!

I believe he also said fake news... the old standby.
Trump's conduct is reprehensible and embarrassing on a daily basis, but this latest blatant public attempt to delegitimize all the intelligence services and claim what the leaders said, under oath, is fake news is bizarre and sinister. What is the basis for the dismissal of the professional agencies?

Individual 1 doesn't know more than a 5th grader. He is still clueless about the difference between climate and weather. He has made up hysteria rhetoric like the birther movement and the Central Park 5. He doesn't even have a basic grasp of character within his administration. Look at how many indictments and charges have been handed down in 2 years within his administration. He bankrupts business, scams universities/charities, and cheats on his wife and ex-wives. He claims North Korea is denuclearized and ISIS has been defeated. Individual 1 has less knowledge and credibility than a Russian troll.
LMAO, he still knew enough to win the Electoral college in epic fashion. #stillyourpresident

He also said today to read the ENTIRE transcript not just the parts the #fakenews media cherry picked.

Don't be snookered or try to snooker others. Take your pick. The transcript or the actual C-span videos reveal the facts and the statements the intelligence services used to present their analysis, under oath. He is undermining, and has been since day 1, the intel people. You can't do that and then take the side of your gut or other leaders, without serious people questioning your motives or intellect. Please!
Are these officials similar to the ones who got us into Vietnam, the Iraq war, the long war in Afghanistan, etc?
These intel chiefs are Trump's picks! The president is telling us that what we saw and heard on television from his chiefs, yesterday, is not what we saw and heard. Period. He said they did not know what they were talking about and only he has all the information, yesterday. Today he is trying to say we did not hear the facts we heard.
LAWL
CNN Anonymous Sources story about Trump.
(I'm truly amazed that people still think this is credible)
CNN -> Tell NPCs "Orange Man Bad"
NPCs -> "Orange Man Bad"
I mean, that's a nice little ditty you like repeating over and over but you failed to comment on the facts at all.
Trump DID say his own intelligence officers - appointed by HIM - were passive, naive and needed to go back to school.
Yeah. The man's a real genius all right
