Although, generally, indeed things are made up all the time.

New York Times confirms that the news of the North Korean missile test was delivered to Mr. Trump at the Mar-a-Lago dinner.

"White House press secretary Sean Spicer said Monday that they were only "reviewing the logistics for the press conference" about the matter were discussed in view of the guests, some of whom were photographed at the president's table with documents.

According to Spicer, the president was briefed on the details of the missile launch in a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility ahead of the dinner and then again after the dinner and prior to the press conference. "

Soooo. The president WAS briefed in a secure area BEFORE and AFTER the dinner....and at dinner they discussed the logistics of a press conference. Funny how this is conveniently left out of the original posting.

Somehow that equates to "so called press" speculation that over a public dinner they reviewed documents that included a summary of "everything we currently know about North Korea’s nuclear program". You really can make this shit up.

I dont know what was discussed in the mara-lago dining hall.
Of course you don't. Neither does this "so called reporter" who immediately suggested that it likely included a written summary of "everything we currently know about North Korea’s nuclear program".

Yes, i fixed my link, thank you. Its a great read. The scientist cited in your bullshit blog post is the one who calls your blog bullshit.

And you are asking me to compare that self-admitted tea party blog site to CNN? Sorry. My IQ is not low enough. But its a free country. Get tour alternative facts from wherever you want.

And neither does Sean Spicer - either that or he just flat out lied about the nature of the ruckus. I sincerely hope its the latter. A terrorist state is testing a long range missile and the president's team interrupts his dinner to ......discuss his one sentence press conference? When were they going to tell him about the missile launch? After dessert and coffee?

I suspect they told him. And its not a big deal. Every president has to learn on the job to some degree. I suspect he'll be more vigilant about privacy going forward. But having the press secretary lie to the public - again - isn't smart. "Isn't smart" is getting to be a common theme with this administration.

Well they said he was briefed in a secure room both before and after dinner...so yeah before appetizers and after dessert. I just find it laughable that the topic is "You can't make this stuff up" and the article that was quoted was pretty clearly making shit up about them displaying in public "everything we currently know about North Korea's nuclear program". It's a hit piece filled with idle speculation.

The point of the article is you really shouldn't be using cellphones to provide light when reading sensitive papers. They can be easily hacked.
As Trump was seated in public when the launch went off, how was he briefed before hand?
