What should the White House do with all media leaks?

Do share....

What specifically were your "predictions" ?
What specifically is the "disaster" you say is realized?

You can go back through the posts if you want to find my predictions.
I did not specify what the disasters would be, but it was obvious he was going to be a very harmful president, especially in foreign policy. He has been.

Even before he took office he had offended most of our allies and was far too cozy with Russia. Putin is no friend of the US.

There are only three reasons I can think of as to why Trump leaked the classified information:

  1. He did not realize what he was doing.
  2. He knew what he was doing and either did not care or realized that Russia would tell on him if he did not give them such information.
  3. He is so concerned about being "smart" and "liked" that he was attempting to win admiration and friendship from Russia by showing how much he knew.
All are very bad reasons.

He may be permitted to declassify information. But that does not mean he has not harmed the US greatly. Why would any of our allies share sensitive information with us knowing it is not safe from being leaked by our president.

Why were you upset over Hillary's e-mails and not about Trump sharing information so sensitive we have not even shared it with our allies?
You have NO Credible evidence Trump leaked or revealed any classified information.

We probably will never know what harm was done. Why, partly because foreign services will no longer have any trust in our keeping their shared secrets secret.

I ask you, if you were in a foreign intelligence service, would you now share any classified or sensitive information with the Americans?

At least four Americans were not slaughtered in an effort to hide BO's involvement which would've resulted in his losing the second term election?

LOL - That is hilarious. According to you, a "novel" is a post that can be read in 2 minutes by someone with basic reading skills. No wonder Dems effectively use "one-liner" HEADLINES, they are in tune to the laziness of their constitutions to take 2 minutes of their time to actually read the claims, and then realize the ending that reveals their claims are speculation.

Excellent.

Are you kidding me? Republicans have tried to impeach a President for less than revealing highly classified information to a potential enemy state.

Are you kidding?
The President has AUTHORITY to reveal "classified information".

Are you kidding?
The President may be impeached and removed only for "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors". (ie guilt of a felony)

What precisely IS "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors" you think Trump has committed?

We have no right knowing what the President is saying or doing ! We put HIM in office because we believe and trust in HIM ! It wrong trying to control even HIS words ! Our nation is at WAR! Those even in Congress who want to destroy us and others ! We voted this Man in to get us out of this Mess! Our Nation has been dying ! Hopefully He can over come these who seek to destroy our nation !

What Republicans and which President?

Newt Gingrich's Congress impeaching Clinton for perjuring himself over Lewinsky Scandal.

What precisely IS "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors" you think Trump has committed?

Revealing classified and highly sensitive information to a potential enemy state such as Russia is very disconcerting. It worries me way more than Clinton lying about Lewinksy. You may not have a problem with it and that is your right as an America to disagree, but I and many others, on the Republican and Democrat side of politics do.

If you want to put your head in the sane for a President and let him go unchecked then by all means do that. I am not ok with that.

Perjury of a sitting President is not "less".

How's that Wall coming along?
How's that Muslim travel ban coming along?
How's that tax reform plan coming along?
How's that deportation of illegals coming along?
How's that infrastructure program doing?
How about getting rid of NAFTA? Or renegotiating it?
How about renegotiating the Iran deal?
How about absolutely destroying ISIS and taking their oil?

Do you ever do your own homework?
The WALL was authorized in 2006.
The FUNDING for the WALL was NEVER addressed by Obama, or the Dems.
The FUNDING is going through appropriate channels FOR "appropriating" the funds.

What Muslim travel BAN? Don't you mean travelers FROM certain ISLAMIC countries?

How do you think it is going when you have a large portion of the government reps and their minions preaching wide open borders and rewards for lawbreakers?

Do you require a response to all of your complaints because you are inept at discovering what is being prepared, effected while trying to jump over the Dem hurdles?

Do you really think IDEAS are implemented without the umpteen meetings and blah, blah called bureaucratic red tape?

And BTW - Trump has ONLY been President for 3 months.
So what is your big gripe....Trump has not "completED" his ideas...in 3 months of a 4 year term...
or
Trump has NOT LEAKED to YOU, his plan of HOW he intends to accomplish his ideas? LOL

Thus, going back through, would be pointless.

but it was obvious he was going to be a very harmful president, especially in foreign policy. He has been.

Excuse me, but what apparently is obviously deemed "harmful" by you, escapes me.

Could you be more specific? What was this "obvious harm" and "harm he has effected", with especial attention on "foreign policy" ?

IOW - what WAS the "foreign policy", you obviously knew he would "change", and precisely what did he "change the foreign policy to", that has harmed America?

Even before he took office he had offended most of our allies and was far too cozy with Russia. Putin is no friend of the US.

Cozy how? Had pj parties and pizza? Had regular dialogue, in person, phone, text? Dined together? What do YOU mean by "cozy"?

There are only three reasons I can think of as to why Trump leaked the classified information:
  1. He did not realize what he was doing.
  2. He knew what he was doing and either did not care or realized that Russia would tell on him if he did not give them such information.
  3. He is so concerned about being "smart" and "liked" that he was attempting to win admiration and friendship from Russia by showing how much he knew.


Who precisely said there was a leak? Name please?

And this conversation has bantered back and forth, with the claims changing...so for you...

Could you specifically identify.... the LEAKED, supposed information, you are referring to ?
Who specifically claimed it was LEAKED, and not something well known ?

Oh, and also answer the questions about...

IOW - what WAS the "foreign policy", you obviously knew he would "change", and precisely what did he "change the foreign policy to", that has harmed America?

and what COZY means to you?


Thanks.

He has the authority but that is not the real issue. The real issue is how unwise it was to give that information to an enemy and to jeopardize people's lives and information sources we need.

If you were in a foreign government. Would you trust Trump to keep secret information that you believe he needs and that would harm your government if it was given to enemies of your country?

If I gave you the information you ask for I would be put in jail. No thanks.

I'll wait and see if you respond to what "that" information is, according to you. :)

If you were in a foreign government. Would you trust Trump to keep secret information that you believe he needs and that would harm your government if it was given to enemies of your country?

Well actually, while you are all worried about Trump revealing "harmful" information....
"harmful" meaning....a harm to the US or a harm to Americans....
I guess you "forgot", such a harm, would INCLUDE, Trump "harming" himself, which makes the whole accusation prime for a comedy.
