Trump revealed highly classified information to Russ. foreign minister and ambassador

RE: Trump revealed highly classified information to Russ. foreign minister and ambassador
A conservatard columnist writes today:

http://theresurgent.com/i-know-one-of-the-sources/


Quote:I Know One of the Sources

It wasn't the Intel community....it was the WLB's own staff and he gives the reason they did so.


Quote: What sets this story apart for me, at least, is that I know one of the sources. And the source is solidly supportive of President Trump, or at least has been and was during Campaign 2016. But the President will not take any internal criticism, no matter how politely it is given. He does not want advice, cannot be corrected, and is too insecure to see any constructive feedback as anything other than an attack.

So some of the sources are left with no other option but to go to the media, leak the story, and hope that the intense blowback gives the President a swift kick in the butt. Perhaps then he will recognize he screwed up. The President cares vastly more about what the press says than what his advisers say. That is a real problem and one his advisers are having to recognize and use, even if it causes messy stories to get outside the White House perimeter.

I am told that what the President did is actually far worse than what is being reported. The President does not seem to realize or appreciate that his bragging can undermine relationships with our allies and with human intelligence sources. He also does not seem to appreciate that his loose lips can get valuable assets in the field killed.

We have a mental midget in the White House.  An insecure little man-baby whose staff feels the only way to manage him is to embarrass him.  The Russkis succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.
