Leaking top-secret info to Russia in Oval Office?
So... "Lock her up!" for having an email server with no classified info, and wasn't hacked, but hey, as president, anything trump says publicly is technically not classified anymore, so he didn't do anything illegal....

I'm curious what people who voted for him think of this.

I am sure they are buying his justification- that he has the right to share whatever info with Russia that he wants.
Interesting though that last night his people were denying it, now he says he did it because he can.
He could have gotten that asset killed.

And we can pretty much forget about getting any more top-secret intel from this source, or any others for that matter. This puts our intel community at a much higher risk now.

This is his tweet from this morning:
"As President I wanted to share with Russia (at an openly scheduled W.H. meeting) which I have the absolute right to do, facts pertaining to terrorism and airline flight safety," Trump tweeted. "Humanitarian reasons, plus I want Russia to greatly step up their fight against ISIS & terrorism."

He has zero respect for what the intelligence community does and the risks they take for our country. It's so disgraceful.
I didn't catch did it was but sometime this morning on cnn said he didn't break the law but may have broken his oath of office. Not that Congress will do anything about it.

He's like a child: "I did it because I wanted to and that makes it right."

Very confusing!!! I was watching Fox News this morning and one of the people who was in the meeting said Trump did not give Russia any classified information. He was actually the source that the newspaper quoted.
However now Trump tweets this, which contradicts what this person said. Sorry can't remember his name. I am not sure what to make of any of this. Sounds sketchy, like the guy was trying to deny what he said, but then Trump confirmed it.

Wouldn't be the first time Trump contradicted the story others were trying to push.

He's constantly saying the opposite things that his spokespeople, Pence, Ryan, etc are saying. They're having just as much trouble figuring out what he's doing as we do!

Re: Leaking top-secret info to Russia in Oval Office?
Seriously though, when is he going to be removed from office? I'm being DEAD SERIOUS. When?? What will it take?? He lies. He doesn't follow rules. He has no understanding of how our government works. So when???
He has proven EVERY single day since he's taken office that he doesn't have a damn clue what he's doing and that he's flat out dumb. He's a danger to the safety of our country and needs to get out of Washington. He belongs in an old person's home for the mentally challenged, NOT the White House.

As long as he keeps signing EOs without reading them, the GOP and lobbyist will keep him around for a while longer. He's also their scapegoat. Once he's too much of a burden for them politically, they'll throw him under the bus and blame all of the bad things that they did on him. "But vote us back in in 2018 because now, without that bad trump man, we'll do everything that he promised to do but didn't ..."

I hope this obstruction of justice claim is solid because if so, he just signed his own exit papers. He makes me sick. He's such a stupid, arrogant dimwit. If Comey is telling the truth, that coupled with his treasonous acts of sharing intel with Russia he's proven in a short 24 hr time frame what an unfit, lying, piece of $hit he is and I for one, do NOT trust him or feel comfortable with him leading this nation. He isn't protecting ANY of us, he's acting in his own best interest. He needs the boot out of Washington. ASAP!

Re: Leaking top-secret info to Russia in Oval Office?
Nevermind, everything is OK. Putin just announced that everything is fine, no secrets were passed to them, and he's even willing to give a hand-written transcript of what was discussed to prove that nothing shady happened. No audio recordings, just a written transcript.
Truth is stranger than fiction....

Even more outrageous is that Putin's direct quote was that he had recordings to prove it. Then it was walked back that it was just a written transcript. I truly wonder if Russia managed to secretly record Trump in his own office.
