Journalists should be framing this as "The president admits he does not recognize the name of the person who provided him routine intelligence briefings, undermining his and the White House's lie that he pays attention during his briefings"

You might even say objectively that the president confirmed that he hasn’t paid attention to his routine intelligence briefings, a daily presidential event that appears on his official schedule and in February contained crucial information about the coronavirus that he missed
This isn’t Trump being Trump. It’s not Trump lashing out at Miles. It’s not Another Trump Tweet. It’s the president confessing that he doesn’t know the people in the room who give him his intelligence briefings that he’s supposed to get every day to keep us safe. So say it.
He wrote “I don’t know him - never even heard of him”
So your factual sentence is: The president tonight admitted he had “never even heard of” the DHS official who provided him with intelligence briefings for more than two years in the White House.
You guys got it from here?
