Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump hosted his top military brass and their spouses for dinner at the White House on Thursday night. The group posed for a photo. Then this exchange with reporters happened:

Trump: "You guys know what this represents? Maybe it's the calm before the storm."

Reporter: "What's the storm?"

Trump: "It could be ... the calm, the calm before the storm."

Reporter: "Iran? ISIS? What storm, Mr. President?"

Too often in the past wars happened over misunderstanding between the two parties.

Sometimes DIPLOMATIC SPEECH confuses the issue more that it clarifies.

President Trump is sending a message around the world so that his intentions are clear. Attack America or her interest at your own peril.

Sounds like this is nothing more than the MSM being butt-hurt that he won’t give them details, the MSM being dumb enough to take the bait from POTUS, and the POTUS enjoying playing them, once again. It is quite entertaining.....

Waste of time reading or attempting to read the article. Covered by soooooooooooo many ads, never got the “meat” of the article at all.

Nothing wrong with an indirect threat to the Korean brat amongst others from our Commander in Chief. I like it.

Go Mr. Potus...

If you’re on a computer install Ad Blocker, mine blocked every single ad.

If you hadn’t brought it up I would have never known they even had any ads.

It’s free.

I interpreted his statement as: “Walk softly and carry a big stick”....Where have I heard that before?

Wars are full of psychological manipulation. It’s called “psy-ops.”

Reality show cliffhangers are psychological manipulation too, as are all cliffhangers.

As far as CNN is concerned, Trump cannot do anything right. Everything he does is a mistake and a disaster.

My guess is it had nothing to do with military and everything to do with fake news organizations coming under heavy fire.

The MSM is used to Obama telegraphing every military move WEEKS before it happened - in an effort to help the enemy.

Trump is not going to do that.
