Trump Revealed Classified Information to Russian Foreign Minister - WashPo

[Stormspark]

So Trump is now contradicting his officials again and not denying it on Twitter. He's defending his actions. God damnit.

Let him keep it up, he's digging his own grave.

Russia is our enemy. They made that pretty clear with their meddling in our last election. It's not even a debate, nor is it open to interpretation.

The difference between you and Trump talking about things, is that Trump reveals highly classified information. You, as demonstrated by your posting here, don't know anything about this subject.

Russia isn't an enemy. Stop saying wrong things at me. Stop trying to attack my character instead of my arguments. If you keep being so weak, I'll just ignore your scribbles.

Trump just like his supporters think he is flawless, his entire staff may as well quit because all they do now is get egg on their face.

I think that the real fear for them is to be Primaried. Thats why they arent fleeing the ship yet

It shows how low they have sunk though. They've utterly lost whatever morals and moral rectitude they have had. They've come to reflect the deplorable base voters which they depend upon to keep them in power. They created a monster and now its consumed them body and soul.

It is. Trumpettes think that russia isnt an adversary to the US and the west, but it is.

Russia is absolutely an enemy. They proved that with their meddling.

You have no argument, and I couldn't care less about your character. You have shifted your goal posts, which is an actual sign of a pathetically weak argument. If you wish for a stronger counter argument, you must provide an actual argument worth countering.

You haven't.

Russia's interest do not align with ours especially in Syria, there is also the concern that revealing intelligence without clearing it with the source puts entire intelligence apparatus at risk. There is a delicate balance when sharing intel so that your sources are not upset and stop sharing information putting more American lives at risk. I am not sure why anyone would defend what Trump did.

[melodramocracy]

Nobody in his cabinet, not even his tweets, say he provided classified intelligence.

Because they'd admit that readily, I'm sure.

Yeah, they aren't the "enemy" to the extent they were during the cold war, but they are definitely adversary.

[GennGreymane]

Whether or not you feel Russia is a threat or not, the US does not share everything with even its closest allies, like the UK.

It is a childish notion to feel that just because they are an "ally" they are allowed all the info. No, some info is kept secret because the more people that know it, the greater the risk of it being leaked out. Info is also used as part of bargaining between nations.

Maybe he'll dig so deep he comes out in China.

[HeyGuysHello]

The point of that, in context, is that everyone keeps saying his tweets "admitted it." They admitted he talked about what the news said he'd talk about a day prior. Today at 1:30 the same thing will be said.

[Stormspark]

Maybe he'll dig so deep he comes out in China.

Or Russia. Maybe he's tunneling his way directly to Putin.

[GennGreymane]

More spin here than a fidget spinner

[Skroe]

Russia isn't an enemy.

You're directly contradicting the US military. It's funny because US Generals and Admirals define Russia as such, and then they explain why. This is Mattis (Secretary of Defense) and the current chairman of the joint chiefs and current Army Chief of Staff.

Couchsurfing with Snowden. I mean, he is still allowed to leave the country.

Trump hasn't broken a law. And I was never one of the idiots yelling "lock her up". I'm just showing that those of you yelling now are no different than the ones yelling then. With the subtle exception Trump has broken no laws.

Hillary didnt break the law. What she did was a misdemeanor, and that could be punished internally, but she wasnt part of the staff when those news broke out

He's been digging for some time now. Just about every other president in history would've been firmly entombed by now. I'm not even sure there is a grave for Trump.

Not just no law broken, but his tweets do not even admit he shared any classified information. Only that he shared common interest on a range of subjects dealing with ISIS. Which he said he has the right to. Those who think part of that information was classified, are guessing. Once again. :P
