Nope not a national security issue at all.
Come on, did you forget? He knows more about the war than the generals, so obviously he knows what to do with classified information better than all the intelligence agencies.
He’s the president of the United States, so yes, he’s actually the final authority. It’s bizarre how easily people that should know better can be goaded with their hate of Trump into backing the so-called ‘intelligence community,’ a name so patently absurd that it alone should be the dead giveaway. Please.
This is kind of faulty reasoning. Just because he is the executive chief does not mean that he is an expert on intelligence operations.
Show me in Article II where it says people that work for the president outrank him.
How did WAPO get this info?
"One of the officials said the intelligence discussed by Trump in his meeting with Lavrov was classified "Top Secret" and held in a secure “compartment” to which only a handful of intelligence officials have access."
Stenography.
Unsecured stenography. It's been a lurking problem for decades.
Gosh, it’s almost like there’s a military-fanatical War Party woven through the structures of power in the United States and they’re bent on an amoral, insane, suicidal, all-out effort at achieving and maintaining total global dominance and, coincidentally enough, the lowest possible costs-of-doing-business for “U.S. Persons.” Maybe it’s just me. I always think that when I see Hillary Clinton and John McCain agreeing on any given subject.
She's on a comeback, and now doing things the right way, like opening her own "dark money" organization "Onward Together". This way even John can contribute to his fellow Neocons with complete anonymity.
At first I was optimistic about Trump's presidency, but now, I can't see him coming back from this. Revealing classified information to Russia, information that we withheld from our own allies? I see impeachment in the near future.
