OP
why does Kelly need to brief him on it ? Trump is up himself tweeting early on without being briefed

Probably strategic on Kelly's part. Limit the idiot's opportunity to Tweet on his own.

on anything.
as i said in the other thread. if this was a non white male who did the shooting he would have tweeted already with his usual shit.

Why should he be apprised of a situation in which he has no role real time.

If the shooter's white or doesn't pray in a funny way, then it's OK.

...is that the Madman would have ran to his phone and tweeted how we're all under attack by ISIS.
It's a sad sad day when Americans have to be protected from their own President.
That's it right there. He did it to keep Trump from putting his foot in his mouth. That, or they are giving Trump cover for not tweeting yet like he has so many times in the past.
