Exhaustion of the Donald campaign by security briefings?

[shanen]

Just had a weird idea of how to destroy Trump's campaign:

Require him to UNDERSTAND the daily security briefings they are giving him.

They would give the identical briefing to Hillary, and then ask her a couple of questions about it. Of course she will answer immediately and accurately.

When Trump got the questions, he would be stumped, but he would be allowed to ask the briefing officer for help. Then more help, and more help, and usually wind up using the rest of the day getting to the point where he could answer the questions. No time left for campaigning. Game over.

Oh wait. It would probably backfire. When would the Donald have time to say and tweet all those stupid things? Just by keeping him away from mics and keyboards it might allow some people to delude themselves about his presidentiality.

1. Trump would just pull a Sarah Palin...

"I'd like to use one of my lifelines."

4. Worse than Sarah?

No, I didn't see an advance of the show with the report of Trump's questions about 'Why not use nuclear weapons?'

Hey, according to the Donald, nuclear weapons are just another bargaining chip, like bankruptcy. He's played the bankruptcy card 6 times already, so no reason to worry about a YUUUGE bomb or three.

2. And then comes the predictable whiney canned Trump response

These briefings are...

RIGGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3. No, the job is rigged--agianst the Donald

Actually, the dirty trick would be to leak how long it takes Trump to understand.

Hillary knows all the context and what they are talking about. The bandwidth would be quite high and she would be able to answer every question immediately.

In Trump's case, it would be more like the #NextTrumpBook National Security 101 for Dummies. Each lesson would run into the hours, but he really is supposed to understand SOME part of this stuff.
