    Trump can barely read a menu much less intel reports.




    The President Who Doesn't Read
    JAN 5, 2018

    Ironically, it was the publication of a book
    this week that crystallized the reality of
    just how little Donald Trump reads. While,
    like many of the tendencies described in
    Michael Wolff's Fire and Fury, Trump's
    indifference to the printed word has been
    apparent for some time, the depth and
    implications of Trump's strong preference for
    oral communication over the written word demand
    closer examination.

    "He didn't process information in any conventional
    sense," Wolff writes. "He didn't read. He didn't
    really even skim. Some believed that for all
    practical purposes he was no more than semi-
    �literate."

    Wolff quotes economic adviser Gary Cohn writing
    in an email: "It's worse than you can imagine .
    Trump won't read anything - not one-page memos,
    not the brief policy papers, nothing. He gets
    up halfway through meetings with world leaders
    because he is bored."

    Before the inauguration, Trump told Axios, "I
    like bullets or I like as little as possible.
    I don't need, you know, 200-page reports on
    something that can be handled on a page. That
    I can tell you." In February, The New York
    Times reported that National Security Council
    members had been instructed to keep policy
    papers to a single page and include lots of
    graphics and maps. Mother Jones reviewed
    classified information indicating Trump's
    briefings were a quarter as long as Barack
    Obama's.

    Official Pushed to Rewrite Intelligence So It Could Not Be ‘Used Against’
    Trump

    An assessment contradicted a presidential proclamation. A political
    appointee demanded a redo, then pushed for changes to the new analysis,
    too.

    <https://www.salon.com/2025/05/28/tulsi-gabbard-grows-to-become-donald-most-dog/>

    ... Tulsi Gabbard. Her latest foray in generating red meat to stoke the
    paranoia of Trump supporters isn't just dishonest, but downright dangerous.
    Late last week, without the mainstream media noticing, Gabbard started
    pushing the flat-out lie that President Joe Biden was labeling Americans as
    "terrorists" because they opposed COVID-19 mitigation measures like masks
    and vaccines. Biden did no such thing, but by pushing this lie, Gabbard is,
    whether she intends to or not, encouraging the radicalization that does
    lead to domestic terrorism.

    . . .

    Gabbard knows that Trump voters aren't exactly the reading types, and they
    will never bother to read this memo.
