Trump ordered malts during a classified intelligence briefing: report


President Trump once ordered malts during a highly classified briefing on Afghanistan in an incident that has become a legend within the CIA, according to a report by Politico

Just a few months after he took office, Trump reportedly insisted to a room of senior defense and intelligence officials, that they must try the malts at his New Jersey golf club while they discussed classified intelligence.


"Does anyone want a malt?" he asked in the meeting, according to three former CIA officials who recounted the events to Politico. "We have the best malts, you have to try them."

Insiders say the incident illustrated to them Trump's apparent disinterest in intelligence briefings. Politico reports that some also view it as an insight into the start of Trump using intelligence information as a weapon in partisan battles.

1. How much were the malts and who paid for them?

[Demovictory9]

3. probably the tax payer paid. i'm sure Trump charged for using his golf clubs for govt event

[Sneederbunk]

9. The best $500 malt you have ever had.

[Autumn]

17. That's what I'm thinking, at the very least. As an aside, I love malts so much more than shakes.

[Jim__]

2. I'm sure the government had to reimburse Trump's golf club for the malts.

Probably charged 'em $100 apiece.

[Demovictory9]

5. plus $10 for a straw and cherry on top. cherry had Trump's face etched in

4. Malts? Is this 1957?

What the actual fuck is a “malt” anyway? Fucking old people.

[Demovictory9]

6. I think malt is similar to milk shake

[Mr. Ected]

8. That's not nice. I'm mildly old and I love malts. They are shakes with malted milk powder.

It was actually the first thing that Trump has ever done that I could even remotely relate to and appreciate.

But the context in which he did it reminds us all again that he is unfit to serve in office.

[Codeine]

13. Sorry about the old people thing.

I get wound by this man.

[Mr. Ected]

15. Oh, believe me, no hard feelings. He makes me go temporarily insane too.

For which I always have a small chocolate malt to help me get back to normal.

[TreasonousBastard]

11. "Malt", as in malted barley is an essential ingredient in beer and some whiskies and also...

in malted milks-- something some us fucking old people still enjoy. You can buy Carnation powdered malted milk in your grocery store.

Yummm!

But, yes, nobody calls it that any more.

[BuddhaGirl]

12. Still widely available in many restaurants

You should try one. Better than a shake, imo.

[Codeine]

14. I don't do milk.

More for you guys.

[DesertRat]

16. Ha, it really is an old-timey drink

I haven't heard anyone reference a "malt" in a long time.

[Tanuki]

7. How secure is his New Jersey golf club, and should he be receiving

classified intelligence briefings there?

[tanyev]

10. Such a child.

[Throck]

18. Single malt scotch?
