Trump chooses another novice to be his Director of National Intelligence

[Crepitus]

DNI Dan Coats was fired on July 28. His firing was likely connected to the intelligence community's response to Trump's telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on July 25, 2019. That response earned Trump two Articles of Impeachment. Since Coats' dismissal seven months ago, the U.S. has been without a permanent DNI.

CNN reports, "President Donald Trump said on Friday that he intends to nominate Rep. John Ratcliffe, a Republican from Texas, as his permanent director of national intelligence, the second time the President has attempted to make the loyalist lawmaker his spy chief."

CNN continued, "Ratcliffe had been nominated as Trump's DNI pick after Dan Coats stepped down from the post in July 2019, but the Texas congressman withdrew his name from consideration after lawmakers from both parties raised concerns about his qualifications."

Trump withdrew Ratcliffe to serve as his intelligence chief in August because he padded his résumé. Also, there was bipartisan concerns about his experience, meaning lacking thereof. Also, Ratcliffe misrepresented his role in prosecuting terrorism and immigration cases.

Ratcliffe's résumé is just as bereft of intelligence experience now as he was in July. Trump nominated him anyway. One possible reason: Qualified intelligence supervisors want nothing to do with Trump's concept of intelligence.

Ratcliffe, as a member of the House Intelligence Committee is a consumer of intelligence products. So, to say Ratcliffe is experienced in intelligence is akin to saying that a person who drives a car has an intimate knowledge of how a car is made.

Ratcliffe's two main qualifications for the job are, 1)He is extremely loyal to Trump. 2)He provided a stalwart defense of Trump in the House impeachment inquiries.

For these reasons, Ratcliffe is less likely to provide intelligence Trump doesn't like. Failure to provide pleasant intelligence to the President cost former DNI's their jobs, Dan Coats and Joseph Maguire. A loyal political hack with zero intelligence experience, Richard Grenell, is the current acting DNI. He won't give Trump unpleasant intelligence, either.

I agree. No one with any experience wants to ruin his or her career working for tRump, and Ratliff is a rabid tRumpling. That's what tRump wants. Not loyalty to the country or the Constitution. Loyalty to him personally.

Ratcliff is a prosecutor by trade.
His talents should enable him to clean up the intel agencies of deep state hacks.

He's a bought and paid for tRumpling zombie.

The Intel agencies don't need cleaning up, the tRump *administration* does.

Trump did not choose a novice, Trump choose a yes man. He will do any and everything Trump tells him to do and he will never question Trump nor disagree with him.

Trump has proven the only qualification he looks for is how well the person's lips fit on his ass

In other words, he didn't hire a deep state douchebag who is going to stab him in the back.

The entire intelligence network should be purged and replaced with new people who aren't backstabbers and traitors.

It's the same old thing fellas. Look how they treat Barr and Durham. The Left knows EXACTLY why these key people have been put in place, and it isn't to kiss Trumps a**. The massive resistance to what is coming, forces Trump to have people in place that are going to go through with it, and not try and protect their swamprat friends.

This site, and other sites, along with the MSM, continuously have DNC people come on and throw stuff against the wall to see which one is a better attack for them. These are just trial balloons to see which of their narratives is most effective.

You seen it with Barr, then Durham, and Kavanaugh, now Ratcliff. The pieces are being put in place in government, to prosecute and expose what happened and who did it. Not to mention--------->pieces are being removed from government that would continue to try and cover up, or make excuses for the people who are going to be held responsible. These changes must be enacted before the saga begins, and the Left will try everything they can to stop it from coming out before Novembers election.

Bullshit. They aren't "key people". Barr is there to keep tRump and his cohorts outta prison and Durham is just a distraction for the low intelligence base.

Neither on has the best interests of the nation or the law at heart.

I suppose to satisfy you he should have went to CNN and asked for Clapper Back or Brennon.............just to APPEASE the TDS drones here.......

You don't know JACK about the appointment and neither do I .............but he sure as hell wouldn't pick someone against him now would he.

That would be like owning a company and giving an interview like this.

Well ...........Do you like me.................Sir ........You suck balls and I detest you....

YOU ARE HIRED........said NO ONE hiring anyone.

My GOD ............so easy for these TDS drones to spout their BS everyday.

You have a right to your opinion, but remember this------------------>anyone with any reason taking what is happening as a whole, can plainly see where this is going. We are not looking at it from each action, but the sum total of all the actions combined. If you do that, the light bulb goes off.

There is absolutely no reason to do any of this for a false narrative. It is being done to prepare for what is obviously coming. We people in the citizenry can only guess, but it is obviously a means to an end; and it is not to kiss someones a**.

I know you probably do not believe it is true, but the storm clouds are brewing quickly now, and very soon we are going to find out which narrative was correct.

To many journalists have agreed that there is a smoking gun here, and not all of those journalists reside on the right.

Trump withdrew Ratcliffe to serve as his intelligence chief in August because he padded his résumé. Also, there was bipartisan concerns about his experience, meaning lacking thereof. Also, Ratcliffe misrepresented his role in prosecuting terrorism and immigration cases.

Ratcliffe's résumé is just as bereft of intelligence experience now as he was in July. Trump nominated him anyway. One possible reason: Qualified intelligence supervisors want nothing to do with Trump's concept of intelligence.

Ratcliffe, as a member of the House Intelligence Committee is a consumer of intelligence products. So, to say Ratcliffe is experienced in intelligence is akin to saying that a person who drives a car has an intimate knowledge of how a car is made.

Ratcliffe's two main qualifications for the job are, 1)He is extremely loyal to Trump. 2)He provided a stalwart defense of Trump in the House impeachment inquiries.

For these reasons, Ratcliffe is less likely to provide intelligence Trump doesn't like. Failure to provide pleasant intelligence to the President cost former DNI's their jobs, Dan Coats and Joseph Maguire. A loyal political hack with zero intelligence experience, Richard Grenell, is the current acting DNI. He won't give Trump unpleasant intelligence, either.

I agree. No one with any experience wants to ruin his or her career working for tRump, and Ratliff is a rabid tRumpling. That's what tRump wants. Not loyalty to the country or the Constitution. Loyalty to him personally.

Ratcliff is a prosecutor by trade.
His talents should enable him to clean up the intel agencies of deep state hacks.

It's the same old thing fellas. Look how they treat Barr and Durham. The Left knows EXACTLY why these key people have been put in place, and it isn't to kiss Trumps a**. The massive resistance to what is coming, forces Trump to have people in place that are going to go through with it, and not try and protect their swamprat friends.

This site, and other sites, along with the MSM, continuously have DNC people come on and throw stuff against the wall to see which one is a better attack for them. These are just trial balloons to see which of their narratives is most effective.

You seen it with Barr, then Durham, and Kavanaugh, now Ratcliff. The pieces are being put in place in government, to prosecute and expose what happened and who did it. Not to mention--------->pieces are being removed from government that would continue to try and cover up, or make excuses for the people who are going to be held responsible. These changes must be enacted before the saga begins, and the Left will try everything they can to stop it from coming out before Novembers election.

Bullshit. They aren't "key people". Barr is there to keep tRump and his cohorts outta prison and Durham is just a distraction for the low intelligence base.

Neither on has the best interests of the nation or the law at heart.

You have a right to your opinion, but remember this------------------>anyone with any reason taking what is happening as a whole, can plainly see where this is going. We are not looking at it from each action, but the sum total of all the actions combined. If you do that, the light bulb goes off.

There is absolutely no reason to do any of this for a false narrative. It is being done to prepare for what is obviously coming. We people in the citizenry can only guess, but it is obviously a means to an end; and it is not to kiss someones a**.

I know you probably do not believe it is true, but the storm clouds are brewing quickly now, and very soon we are going to find out which narrative was correct.

To many journalists have agreed that there is a smoking gun here, and not all of those journalists reside on the right.

I have no idea what you are trying to imply here.

Please, give us the whole theory.

Trump did not choose a novice, Trump choose a yes man. He will do any and everything Trump tells him to do and he will never question Trump nor disagree with him.

Trump has proven the only qualification he looks for is how well the person's lips fit on his ass

In other words, he didn't hire a deep state douchebag who is going to stab him in the back.

The entire intelligence network should be purged and replaced with new people who aren't backstabbers and traitors.

I agree. No one with any experience wants to ruin his or her career working for tRump, and Ratliff is a rabid tRumpling. That's what tRump wants. Not loyalty to the country or the Constitution. Loyalty to him personally.

Story is to long, sorry. The crux of it is-----------------------> The US government can NOT bring all of the people to justice at once for spygate, or the earthquake it would cause in the markets would drag everything down, especially if some of those people were still in government.

How bad is this going to get?

I have no idea, but it is going to be bad! You can see at the Presidential rally's now, Trump himself telling people it is coming in the next few months. He knows what they have, and that means that unless you believe he touched on a subject he doesn't have to for any reason other than informing his voters, I have some swampland I will sell you.

Call Trump a liar, Orange man, or anything you want; but one thing Trump is not is DUMB! He is basically promising his people something is coming. Now you say he breaks all of his promises. All I can say is------>your take better be correct as you spin it, otherwise a big ball of poop is coming, and it is heading your way!

DNI Dan Coats was fired on July 28. His firing was likely connected to the intelligence community's response to Trump's telephone conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on July 25, 2019. That response earned Trump two Articles of Impeachment. Since Coats' dismissal seven months ago, the U.S. has been without a permanent DNI.

CNN reports, "President Donald Trump said on Friday that he intends to nominate Rep. John Ratcliffe, a Republican from Texas, as his permanent director of national intelligence, the second time the President has attempted to make the loyalist lawmaker his spy chief."

The claim that our intelligence agencies are loyal to the country couldn't be more obviously false. They are loyal only to themselves. They staged a coup against a lawfully elected president. These vermin need to be cleaned out. Trump should have done it long ago.

What you're telling us is that Trump and actual patriotic Americans should trust these proven backstabbing weasels.

He promised his people a tax cut before the midterms, he lied and is still worshiped.

He promised to repeal and replace ObamaCare...he lied and is still worshiped.

When Trump said he could shoot someone on 5th ave and they would still vote for him, he knew what he was talking about

Trump expressed confidence Ratcliffe could "rein in" intelligence agencies which he asserted had "run amok."

Sounds good to me.

But...........that's because you are an idiot you believes everything the Liar-in-Chief says. You know that, right?

Trump Taps John Ratcliffe For Director Of National Intelligence — Again

Trump previously withdrew a plan to nominate Ratcliffe for the job in August, after several reports revealed that the Texas congressman had exaggerated his accomplishments as a federal prosecutor in Texas.

“Rather than going through months of slander and libel, I explained to John how miserable it would be for him and his family to deal with these people,” Trump tweeted at the time. “John has therefore decided to stay in Congress where he has done such an outstanding job representing the people of Texas, and our Country.”

The re-upping of Ratcliffe — whose previous nomination was met with barely lukewarm support from Republicans — buys potentially months more time in office for the acting intelligence director, the outspoken Trump loyalist and ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell.

Grenell’s past foreign clients and aggressive public presence have clouded his short tenure as acting DNI.

The New York Times reported last week that Grenell had installed as his deputy Kash Patel, a former aide to Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) with a history of spreading conspiracy theories. Patel’s appointment — and news that Grenell had asked to see the intelligence used in the election interference briefing Maguire’s staff gave lawmakers this month — raised concerns that Grenell was using his new powers toward political ends.


CNN reported Tuesday that Trump was again considering Ratcliffe for the role.

Trump grew to like the Texas congressman for his vociferous defenses of the President during the Russia probe and recent impeachment investigation.

Who should he have named? Specifically who?

I suppose to satisfy you he should have went to CNN and asked for Clapper Back or Brennon.............just to APPEASE the TDS drones here.......

You don't know JACK about the appointment and neither do I .............but he sure as hell wouldn't pick someone against him now would he.

That would be like owning a company and giving an interview like this.

Well ...........Do you like me.................Sir ........You suck balls and I detest you....

YOU ARE HIRED........said NO ONE hiring anyone.

My GOD ............so easy for these TDS drones to spout their BS everyday.

You are so triggered by the truth about your god, it just eats you up to see anyone say a damn thing negative about him.

I would like him to pick someone with some actual intelligence experience.

If you owned a company would you hire someone to a top position that had zero experience in that area just because they kissed your ass daily? Well, never mind as dumb as you are I am sure you would

The upper echelons of the intelligence agencies are terminally corrupt. They should all be fired, not promoted. Many of them need to go to prison.

You douchebags keep pretending that these intelligence executives are honest patriotic Americans who we can trust. They have been proving that theory dead wrong for the last 4 years.
