Please contact your senators to CENSURE Donald Trump

[ffr]

What he said last night about the SECRET & CONFIDENTIAL information he receives is off limits for political discussion.

I've already contacted my two state senators. Here is what I said. Yes, you can copy and paste this too if you like:

I am asking if you could begin the process for censuring Donald Trump for divulging information he acquired during his Intelligence Briefings. He's crossed a red line that has been respected by both parties and does so in a cavalier way, as if to disrespect the work of the intelligence community, as well as, potentially endanger every American with his reckless comments.

Thanking you in advance.

We may not be able to put a muzzle on his other reckless comments, but some things go above reproach and this was it. No more loose lips Donald, you stupid motherf---er!

Thank you!

2. They can't censure a person who is not in the federal government.

3. I know it's a grey area, but he is receiving intellegence briefings

and not respecting the sensitivity of that information. Taking a cavalier attitude towards our safety is not something I take lightly.

I'd rather err on the side that Harry Reid might author a letter to Trump's campaign and read it out loud from the senate floor...and the news that it would generate.

4. Just cut him off from the briefings.

5. I don't believe that they can censure someone who is not also in the Senate.

Asking them to do so is silly, and makes the asker look a bit ignorant of how these things work.

6. See post #3 above

I'd be more than happy to look ignorant if we could prevent Trump from endangering people's lives, ours, those in the military and intelligence fields, as well as, innocents around the globe.

In this case, the ends justify the means.

8. "The end justifiy the means" is a very scary

stance.

And it's not up to us or the Senate to do anything, but up to those giving the intelligence briefings. I wouldn't be all that surprised if they have not told him anything truly classified, or of a nature that would matter if he did spill the beans.

7. It's a good thing they don't give truly deep secret intelligence to candidates

As long as they're not yet the President they get only the superficial intelligence regarding ongoing activity. They don't get briefed the way they will when one of them becomes President.

I'm sorry I don't have a link. I heard it when someone in intelligence gathering services, maybe the CIA, was interviewed on either CNN or MSNBC.

But I'm not making light of your concerns. I have them also.
