VERY smart move on the part of Trump to make the Dems themselves amend their memo to remove the classified parts which they put in solely for the purpose of forcing Trump to either shred it with redactions or simply refuse to allow it to be released.

It will be curious if the document appears again for release by Monday, with the redactions accomplished. It would have taken less than an hour of editing to meet the Trump-criteria.

My guess is that you probably won’t hear anything again about this memo.

The not-so-clever Democrat Thug Party created a BS memo the MSM would parade as a legitimate counter argument.

The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat. Facilitating parent companies: Disney, Comcast.

Schiff plays Donkey Kong. Trump plays chess.

I always kind of thought that Trump should have just released the Democrat memo as is.

Then when everyone starts screaming about all the classified into in it, just point to the Dems on the committee and say,

“These were the people in charge of our intelligence data. I would think that they knew what was classified and what could be released to the public. Else why would they put it in a memo and then demand for it to be released to the public? Why would they threaten our country’s security like that?”

Dems played by Trump yet again.

If they had a shred of sense, they’d just surrender now.

Trump to Democrats: Re-do Your Memo in Proper Form>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Well and subtly done!

President Trump just took Schiff to the woodshed.

Hypothetically connecting some dots, in theory it seems within the realm of conjecture to me that trump could use this avenue towards incticting seditious and treasonous individuals, arresting them with federal marshals, and sending them to firms for military tribunal trials (I may be missing some legal niceties that preclude this scenario). If this is the case, many liberals might be in for a considerable surprise once this mechanism begins to be exercised. All speculative...

Trump didn't have a choice. Under the rules of Congress, the committee sends the information they want to declassify to the President and the President either approves it in whole or sends it back. Trump couldn't take parts out and then release it.

The Democrats won't amend the memo. They'll refuse to change it and claim Trump is trying to hide the facts. This is no less political than the Nunes memo was.

Trump should hire me as an adviser, because, he's doing precisely what I suggested a few days ago:

What Trump should do is to send the democrats’ memo back to Schiff. Then, Schiff can use the Nunes memo as an example of the type of information that can be contained in a memo. Trump nor the FBI should have to change the memo. Let the democrats modify it to comply with intelligence regulations, and then, Trump can review it and release it if complies (with) expected FBI snd CIA and DOJ regulations.

They also would have blamed him if he had released classified information. They would have claimed they weren’t the experts on that. They would have said that the executive branch are the experts on classification. So they were hoping to get him one way or the other. Damned if he did and damned if he didn’t

No kidding. This is what fighting back looks like. Trump is showing the GOP how it's done.

This re-writing of the memo in proper form must irk English Composition teachers, and thus the teacher’s unions.

I REALLY wish people would pay attention:

THE PRESIDENT DOES NOT RELEASE THE MEMO! The committee releases the memo, after Trump has gone through it and suggested changes.

Put the heat where it belongs-on the heads of the Dmorons who wrote it with every intention of spinning it this way.
