Well something has to give.....

"In other words, after his tax cuts, Medicaid cuts, and unspecified domestic discretionary program cuts, there’s still no room in the budget for Trump’s promised new spending on infrastructure, the military and veterans---unless, that is, he tackles entitlements or takes the nation even deeper into debt. (This is a long time theme for Steuerle, who has argued in such books as Dead Men Ruling that automatic spending on programs already written into law, combined with the aging of the baby boomers, has limited current politicians’ ability to invest in children, education, infrastructure and other programs essential to help the economy grow.)

So where does President-elect Trump stand on cuts to entitlements, other than the Medicaid cap he embraced during the campaign---the one that’s already built into Steuerle’s grim numbers? During the campaign, Trump promised to protect Social Security without cutting benefits, raising taxes, or raising the retirement age, suggesting a long term funding shortfall---starting in 2035, the tax dollars coming in will be enough to pay only 77% of benefits---could be solved simply by goosing the economy and cutting waste, fraud and abuse. Similarly, when it comes to Medicare, Trump has promised to protect benefits, but has offered no real ideas for curbing the growth of costs, other than allowing the program to negotiate with pharmaceutical companies,which Republicans have traditionally opposed.

All due respect to General Hayden. He knows what it is and why it is from his day in servce. Also he is, like it or not an insider of sorts.

My point is the current format is outdated. Yes I am sure very technologically and media driven. There are much more efficient ways to disseminate critical, time sensitive information, that would be more accurate in presentation....and not LIMITED TO THE CURRENT, daily ritual.

Not even you could really be ignorant enough....to believe that's acceptable.

Anyone ever associated with civil service knows that no manager ever wants to cut a function.

More functions equals more staff, money, power.

Over a million civilian employees supporting 1 million troops, trillions of dollars in virtually unaccounted for contract spending. You can't make this stuff up.

The politicans, the lobbyists and other swamp scum want business as usual.

It does not take a brain surgeon to see that, just ask Ben Carson. He says Trump gets the point.

It's time for common sense.

Perhaps a Vulcan mind meld is your answer.

Thanks for sharing you inside experience with nthe daily intelligent brefngs. Are you to able to tap that knowledge a bit more and share more with us. Not many have been to them as you obviously.

OR....are you as with Trump...so much smarter than everyone as he says he is ???

You mention the format as outdated....in what way has it changed in your vast experience.

These are the same ignorant voters who put Trump in the White House, and now barely a month later are bawling their eyes out because their healthcare is going bye-bye.

It's not like Trump didn't tell them, sometimes three times a day, that his highest priority was to repeal their healthcare.

All presidents are given choices of how to receive the PDB. President Obama receives his on his I-Pad. If Trump wants to get his via dance interpretation, it will be done.

Is your point that Trump does not want to be briefed because the US is using an outdated manner in which to brief him ?

Are you suggesting that the current method, whatever that is...only YOU and Trump I suppose know for sure......is not efficient ?

If Trump wants a personal briefing, it will be done. This way he can ask questions and advise his briefers what subjects he would like to cover in the future.

All presidents have to make split second decisions, sometimes life and death decisions. At that point, it is too late to review the data. This is why having as much updated information on a regular basis is imperative to keeping the country safe.
