THAT is my point. Nothing else.
You're the one who brought up the classification thing. But - as has been pointed out to you - Chelsea Manning stole documents in an attempt to expose wrongdoing, while Trump's motivation is less clear. They both stole government documents, but it's hardly the same thing.
Like it or not, motive matters.

Horseshit.
Manning was not in a position to declassify anything. Trump was.
When you get a security clearance you agree to not doing what Manning did. Your opinion of the legitamacy of the classified material means fuck-all. You compromise the info - you go to jail. In wartime - they shoot your ass. Period.
Got a problem with that?
Get a different job.
