The White House remained coy Friday about what President Trump meant when he called a gathering of military advisers the “calm before the storm,” with the president winking and declining to elaborate when pressed by a reporter.

“You’ll find out,” the president responded.

Moments later during the briefing, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders rebuffed question after question probing the meaning of the president's seemingly ominous warning.

“We’re never going to say in advance what the president’s going to do,” Sanders said, adding: “You’ll have to wait and see.”

Supposedly made when Trump was meeting with Military, but not necessarily true.

Maybe the Democrats will find out... The hard way...

Some have speculated on North Korea, Iran, and ISIS.

Does Trump have an October surprise?

The “storm” could be the media scrambling all over themselves trying to figure out what Trump said and what he meant by it....LOL

The President was just trolling the media. He said “dance” and they started doing “The Charleston”, on cue.

He loves to keep the Left (media) shook up.

He’s talking about the decertification of the Iran agreement.

I’m still wondering how it is, that Obama sent a planeload of cash to Iran. I wonder why the media didn’t dig more into that.

Even if, for sake of argument, we say that Iran was owed all those millions as part of the deal, why was it paid in untraceable cash?

How much if that cash ended up in the bank account of the treasury of Iran, and how much was skimmed off by their leaders , and also by the dudes who drove trucks and forklifts meeting the plane at the airport????

Maybe, declare Marshal Law just in CA—have military take the Governor and politicians -arrest for treason and harboring illegals. ICE did say they would be getting a lot of agents into sanctuary states.

The press briefing was hilarious. Question after question about what he meant followed by question after question about why he’s telegraphing his next moves...these people are so unaware of how people see them.. absolutely clueless
