Trump giving classified info to the Russians

[brettdale]

Now thats a real story!!

This is something that can do real damage to Trump.

1. Yeah, especially since he barred US media from that particular meeting

while admitting the Russian press. I have to wonder who leaked about this particular bit of information and what the motive is.

4. It would be hard to tell where the leak came from

This screw up was so massive lots of people would be involved in the damage control.

2. I got to say...I thought the Comey story was something...but this???

Who would have believed this one????...and..I believe that now he is gone..

."That's All Folks".........

3. It would appear that he disclosed this info in the process of bragging

about the intel the US has. I'm only surprised he didn't this sooner. Jeffrey Toobin pointed out on CNN that since the prez can declassify anything this wasn't technically illegal, it's extremely problematic because it was a disclosure of highly sensititive information to officials of a country that is not our friend and could be a betrayal of an ally.

Was there a quid pro quo of some kind or did Dolt 45 just blurt it out to show off to the Russians?

Did the Russians understand at the time the importance was of what he told them? Was that they were smiling? For that matter, did Trump understand it or was he just blabbing to look important?

Why weren't US journalists allowed into that meeting? If any had been there, would Trump have shot off his mouth anyhow?

Are there "tapes"? They'd better be snatched up, right now.
