When Trunket comes out of his "Intellegence Briefing", will he be telling people

that he knew everything plus months ago and that he was briefing the briefers because, folks, he was the smartest guy in the room and the smartest guy in the world, believe me. He is so very, very smart that MENSA asked him to withdraw his membership because they didn't have a category to accommodate his amazing level of intelligence. Everybody knows how smart he is. People are always telling him how very, very smart he is...blah, blah blah!

They either had to dumb it down (hopefully they did and left out the critical stuff), or when he comes out, his interpretation of what they told him will be all messed up and he'll do as you said and talk about himself.

It's not what he would share publicly that scares me. What scares me is what he could share with his nefarious buddies.

what the briefers must be thinking. It has to be horrifying to share sensitive intelligence with this man.

I'd feed him a false narrative. No way I'd ever share real intelligence with him.
