It was so bad, that Biden banned Trump from getting intelligence reports after he left the White House

This is bizarre. Why is that a "so bad" thing. He's not the president anymore; he shouldn't be getting any briefings by default.
I thought former presidents got some sort of briefing indefinitely...am I remembering that wrong or are you just sharing an opinion?
Opposing opinion: it's actually a very good idea to get other opinions, especially for international crises. Who else has the experience to advise the president besides other presidents?
Of course, no one would seek trump's opinion on anything because he's kind of an idiot. Bush, Obama, and Clinton? Sure. Even Carter, but he's old so maybe don't bother him.
But there was no mention of asking their opinion on something, just of briefing them on the situation.
That's the point of it though. These guys talk occasionally if they want to. If you had a job that literally only 45 other people had in history, you would call occasionally too.
Good job Mr trump! You drew inside the lines on that one! We're gonna put it on the fridge! Now write your name here, here and here and initial here.
I would pay money to see trump doing and failing easy tasks. Like connect the dots or draw inside the lines. You know that motherfucker can't.
Might as well, he's not going to understand them anyways. Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies is just too old. He needs to drop out. It's just embarrassing.
My finger paints are the best. A lot of people are saying it. Smart people. They say "his fingerpaintings are fantastic". Not just me, but the best people. Very smart.
After he gave himself an A+ on the first one, what’s the point of doing them every day after that?
According to his own comments "maybe it's just best that they just die". He wasn't talking about himself, just people as equally mentally incapable as himself.
everyone knows when you get an early tee time you don't skip it unless you are dead or else you aren't getting an early tee time again at that course.
The President’s Daily Brief is a document. Most presidents would read it and call meetings as needed. Bush 43 was the only President who needed it explained to him daily. There’s no reason to skip it.
We're supposed to be shocked, but I would be happy if the CIA didn't get the ear of the president every single fucking day.
