Brennan, like ever other worthless RAT, has no sense of humor and no ability whatsoever to understand satire.
You credit Brennen for having integrity by suggesting he honestly fell for it and was simply being honest and truthful in his belief that Trump was signaling something to the Ruskies. Brennen did no such thing. The scum that he (Brennen) is, he knew the truth of the joke Trump intended. He was merely counting on the fact that if he pretended to believe and insisted such and such was Trump’s intent that he could make brain dead Democrat voters believe it and they would hate Trump even more.
