Vor..follow me through the weeds. Obama would have had to have done something like that, for him to have (or have not) received condemnation..for doing something like that. Brennan isn't a rando msnbc commentator..and his security clearance wasn't revoked on account of his new job.
You're trying to do a thought experiment in which neither the act..nor the actors, are equivalent..in order to determine whether or not the response is genuine.
While it may be true that Obama didn't get the same response for doing something that trump got when they are roughly equivalent (I'll note as I always do that obama was the deporter in cheif and a drone warlord)..this example isn't going to yield an example of that. Yes, what trump did is genuinely appalling...but, otoh, he's probably managed to piss off the spies again..so some good may come of it.
