This arch conservative writer, EE, not only confirmed that Trump divulged highly sensitive information, but said the incident is "far worse" than reported and the leaker only went to the press because the confidantes and inner circle at the WH cannot point out to the orange shitgibbon when he erred or jeopardized confidentiality on sensitive matters without the paranoid dictator taking "constructive criticism" as a personal attack leveled at him. Therefore, the only thing they've concluded is that leaking this stuff to the press cause an immediate blowback effect for tRump and it gives him a lesson in reality. Or that's their theory. So far, it doesn't seem to be working and, in fact, it's my fear that if this keeps up, he's going to try to shut the press down altogether for reporting what his own aids are trying to do get him to get his act together.
