Trump tweets he had the right to share the classified info

[HerdBuckeye]

this morning. So therefore this is now confirmed that he did share the info. So there is no reason to be fighting back and forth of whether or not he shared the info. The question is was it legally acceptable to share. The answer is yes it was the president has that right.

Now is it a good practice no way. But trump is the dude in the room that needs everyone to know that he knows a secret. Chatty Cathy he can't keep his mouth shut.

Trump, in his tweets, never said he shared sensitive or classified information and never said he disclosed sources, methods or even locations. The president's defense lines up with the Monday statements of McMaster and Powell, both of whom were at the meeting with Trump, Lavrov and Kislyak.

"The president and the foreign minister reviewed a range of common threats to our two countries including threats to civil aviation," McMaster said. "At no time, at no time were intelligence sources or methods discussed and the president did not disclose any military operations that were not already publicly known."

Looks like impeachment will need to wait until another day.

Except that's not anywhere close to what the wapo story said happened.
Now what trump Should have done is issued the statement he made to day on Twitter last night. That would have calmed the situation. Instead he sends out his people and makes them look stupid by refuting what they say

 

[imherdfan]

What is sad, is the Trump minions continuing to attempt to normalize that morons behavior.

 

[i am herdman]

What's was is the people who wake up everyday nitpicking about nothing

Lol, you could have just stopped right there, and saved yourself some additional keystrokes.

And you continue to believe the WaPo?

After Biff revealed classified info to the Russians WH staff checked with Intelligence to check the level of classified info that Biff told to the Russians. The leak must have probably came from inside the Intel community.

Low information voters will continue to support Biff until to the end.

 

[raleighherdfan]

Low information voters will continue to believe whatever misrepresented story comes out of the MSM until to the end.

Fixed it for you.

This story was being typed, and "anonymous sources" were being lined up the minute Trump admin announced they were going to meet with Russian officials.

If this was Hillary we'd be outraged. Why you can't admit that I don't know... Biff is toxic, nothing in his agenda is going to get done at this rate. But hey, let's just keep up this "burn the whole place down" attitude.

Listen FakeConservative, we knew Hillary illegally had secret intel on a home server that was compromised. We knew she and bill were being paid by foreign entities for future access.

You and the WaPo still have no real idea what specific information was actually shared, other than just claiming "classified" by "sources". By all means....carry on..........

And Biff is in the Russians back pocket. Low information voters and the poorly educated fell for Biff's nonsense because he spoke a language you all could understand.

If anyone here is a Fake Conservative it's you. You voted for an elite coastal Democrat.

And besides if it wasn't classified info like half of you are saying then why does the leak matter. Wouldn't that be like leaking what's on the menu today for lunch. You can't have it both ways trump clowns.

 

[herdit44]

just for what it's worth, mcmaster just said it was "wholly appropriate" for the president to share that information and the president wasn't even briefed on where the intel originated. so, the nsc director is confirming the wapo story.

 

[19MU88]

seriously, are the media, the dems, and all liberal idiots going to cry wolf every day? I think most aren't even paying attention anymore. no one takes you clowns seriously.

try and win an election and we'll talk....you're losing everywhere.

 

[raleighherdfan]

You lefties keep moving the goalposts on this discussion. No one has suggested Trump didn't discuss information with Russia. The implication by the WAPOO is that this was deep dark secret intel no one had but us.....unfortunately no one from the admin has actually admitted to this type of specific intel being discussed.
When reading the WAPOO story, the sources only can speculate that this was the information shared. Just like all other Russian stories....speculation, innuendo, fabrication by desperate wolf crying minions trying desperately to be heard. No shred of real evidence other than mystical sources.

Hit the "repeat" button again guys. You're being played.

Stick to checkers. Here is the most important quote of the day: “I think we could do with a little less drama from the White House on a lot of things so that we can focus on our agenda."

Do you read, or watch movies? Most people do. I enjoy conspiracy theories; hell, sometimes they even turn them into movies. The only thing juicy is the remnants of your gray matter that long ago oozed from your ears

Then McMaster needs to go. He should know you don't go sharing Israeli HUMINT with the Russians, and he should have made that clear to Trump.

Perhaps you do if it is critical intelligence with a direct threat to mass loss of human life. Example, recently reported that ISIS is working on technology to take down airliners. The Russians, USA, and others could be targets. Sometimes you do the right damn thing. If it is an immediate threat prevents a 9-11 you do the right damn thing. You would want the same in return.

 

[Raoul Duke MU]

You would want the same in return.

Not if I am Israeli. Sorry, no HUMINT goes to Iran's buddy. Tough shit. From anyone else but Israel and SA, maybe your take is right (and shit, let's be honest, you have heard or read that take today, because I have too, it isn't your take).
