‘You’ll find out’: White House coy, Trump winks on meaning of ‘calm before the storm’

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.”

Maybe a lawsuit against all sanctuary cities and states.

Send in federal troops. It's totally justifiable.

I predict he’s not referring to action against North Korea, but to something else. Quite possibly, indictments and/or arrests that will send out political shockwaves.

>>Does Trump have an October surprise?<<

My Gut tells me...he’z bluffing lil chubby. Think about it, what in the world could Trump do? Perhaps a covert assassination, but short of all out war which would be freakin horribly bloody/destructive...what could he do?

This is going to be funny. It has to do with the military and makes the left look bad at the same time? Maybe he about to pull the plug?

I don't think so. China is very upset at North Korea.

The USS Ronald Reagan just paid a port visit to Hong Kong.

North Korea is supposed to test a missile that can reach the United States THIS WEEKEND.

The expression on Trump's wife was a giveaway to me.

In football there was an old cheer.

Hit again! Hit again, Harder!

It is possible North Korea may learn the meaning of that cheer.

But we will know if what I am saying is true if North Korea goes through with their MISSILE TEST.

The storm, I believe, is bigger than a blow to the Lame Stream Media. President Trump has long told about his policy to never give your enemies what you intend to do. The storm will be an attack without warning so that enemy cannot prepare for it. The question should be, who first? I suspect it is North Korea.

I wish it was the firing of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. New revelations that Mueller investigators met with Christopher Steele last Summer and let the scandalous allegations hang in the air have an appearance of corruption. The Senate Intelligence Committee, who has been wanting to interview Steele, has not been given anything from Mueller about anything they got from their meeting with Steele. Because of that, I would fire Mueller.

Once again President Trump kicks the fire ant mound to watch them scurry. Maybe one day he will sprinkle some Amdro and put them out of their misery.

Sounds like one of mom's threats after I got caught at something.

Mom would say: Your punishment???...I'm thinking about it."

No. We’ll know if what you say is true IF Trump DOES something about it, otherwise, ho hum, just another belligerent Nork missile launch like the others.
