• Originally, this was supposed to be a meeting to appoint a new CIA director (Mike Pompeo) - Senate Democrats delayed approval.
• About 40 Trump supporters were placed in the front rows to make it sound like there was more support than there was.
• Meeting was awkward and did not help relations with the intelligence community.

High points:

• "So we should have kept the oil.  But okay.  (Laughter.)  Maybe you'll have another chance.  But the fact is, should have kept the oil."
• "I have a running war with the media.  They are among the most dishonest human beings on Earth."  (Laughter and applause.) 
• "We did a thing yesterday at the speech.  Did everybody like the speech?"  (Applause.)
• "God looked down and he said, we're not going to let it rain on your speech." 
• "I looked out, the field was -- it looked like a million, million and a half people." (actual estimates are about 140,000)
• "So we caught them, and we caught them in a beauty.  And I think they're going to pay a big price."
