(85,996 posts)Hillary Clinton tore into Donald Trump Thursday for his criticism of things he learned in classified intelligence briefings he has received as the GOP nominee."What would Ronald Reagan say about a Republican nominee who attacks America's generals and heaps praise on Russia's president. I think we know the answer,"Clinton said at a press conference. On an NBC-televised forum Wednesday night, Trump said he was "shocked" by information he received during the briefings."What I did learn is that our leadership, (President) Barack Obama, did not follow what our experts ... said to do," he said.

At the televised forum on Wednesday night, Trump said he was "shocked" by information he got during the briefing. "What I did learn is that our leadership, Barack Obama, did not follow what our experts ... said to do," Trump said.
Clinton, who was secretary of state during Obama's first term, said Trump's comments on the briefing were "totally inappropriate and undisciplined."
"I would never comment on any aspect of an intelligence briefing I received," Clinton said before boarding her campaign plane.

(85,996 posts)...I don't think he's gotten his fill, still craving the attention and having an utter lack of respect for the seriousness of the information.
I'd like to think they held back anything that would seriously cause damage.
