And in doing so, he finally & formally verified that it was Israel who was the source of the intel.

Seems like Trump is referring to meeting w/ the Russians in the White House, where he disclosed highly classified intel on ISIS from Israel

[Kali]

6. ha! no, I meant (sarcastically) he really helped himself by doing that.

He is an idiot.

[riversedge]

7. OK, I sometimes do not grasp the sarcasm. But reports did not say Trump that

he mentioned Israel.

.....Reports about the meeting have not claimed the Trump explicitly mentioned Israel as the source of the intelligence.

National security adviser H.R. McMaster, who was in the room, said last week Trump “wasn’t even aware of where this information came from” because “he wasn’t briefed on the source."

[kpete]

8. The point is

He mentioned twice today...

[JHB]

21. He didn't have to...

Russkie intelligence people reverse-engineering where that information could have come from would put an Israeli operative at or near the top of the list.

[dalton99a]

2. Such an amateur

[herding cats]

3. What a fool. nt

[riversedge]

5. With good reason, they are not giving Trump much press time-but he actually called the press back

to make his point that he never mentioned Israel in his comments (to the Russians). dah!

[herding cats]

11. They were shooing the press out as fast as they could and he insisted he get a word in!

It be funny if he weren't in a position to do such damage.

[DrDan]

9. scared to death of Mueller

[gratuitous]

10. He didn't mention Israel

But that may have been only because President Trump didn't know where the information came from at the time he blabbed it. Now that he knows, he's more than happy to tell the assembled press corps that it was an Israeli asset that he burned.

12. "All I said was a country that SOUNDED like 'Schmisrael'

[uponit7771]

14. +1

[ms liberty]

13. My god this man is stupid

An ignorant dumbass. Mind bogglingly stupid. And all with an attitude of such condescending superiority that sentient beings are left speechless in amazement and disgust.

[uponit7771]

15. +1, I didn't think a public figure could be more stupid than W ... jus... wow

[Plucketeer]

20. As much as I hate to say it...

I can't keep the image of W with the caption "Miss me yet?" out of my cranium!

[uponit7771]

23. IKR !?!?

[suffragette]

16. Such stupid word play may convince Trump's fans, but not Netanyahu.

Really weak attempt at deflecting.

[blogslut]

17. The look on Netanyahu's face...

I can hear his internal screaming voice "Shut up! Shut up! Stop talking!"

[bucolic_frolic]

18. "I didn't tell you. I just did."

Nice of Trump to clear that one up!

[genxlib]

19. Perhaps the biggest indicator of his incompetence....

A complete lack of understanding of the First Rule of Holes.

Works for me. Keep digging.

[tclambert]

22. When digging holes, many people slip into the "Sunk Cost Fallacy."

"I haven't found any gold yet, but I've been digging for hours and I've got all these blisters and my back is sore. . . . I better keep digging so all my previous effort isn't wasted. Surely, there's gold down here somewhere!"

[SunSeeker]

24. No one said he mentioned "Israel." Trump is fucking lying as usual.

What has been reported is that he provided highly classified intelligence and the city where it was procured. The press then correctly pointed out that this information can be reverse-engineered by Russia to figure out the source.
