To go along with all the secret anonymous sources - we now have nonexistent links to back up those anonymous sources. The Hysterical Meltdown continues and gets more ridiculous by the day.

Get real! We are all getting sick and tired of the excuses and rationalizations for the simple fact that Trump is not qualified mentally and with respect to judgment and experience to be president. It is time for his cabinet to quit covering for him and take steps to remove him as provided for in the Constitution. Our lives depend on it.

Oh so now you want me banned because I express an opinion you don't like? You don't think I am serious? I am EXTREMELY serious. To make an omelet you gotta break a few eggs,to Save America we will have to arrest and prosecute MANY people and shut down those who think its their right to put others in harms way with idiotic and dangerous fake news stories.
Wow...I'm sorry to say this but your last paragraph sounds an awfully lot like the Nazi sentiments during WWII. Although I don't agree with you and support your right to free speech, you are really treading on some disturbing ground...

No, that cat was already out of the bag. If Trump didn't know, it was because of his own laziness, disinterest, willful ignorance and short attention span.

I am sure Trump was informed after the story broke - whether or not he absorbed what he was told is questionable, as usual. He certainly didn't (and apparently still doesn't) comprehend the ramifications of it, as is evident by his extremely defensive tweets, or if he did, a good deal of rather hapless CYA came into play.

The man is simply incompetent for the job at hand, intellectually, temperamentally and morally. It is in the best interests of the American people and other lovers of freedom in the world to remove him from office, and to limit his powers until that can be achieved legally.

I never supported Donald Trump, but I had hopes that he would rise to the office of the presidency and surprise us all by his achievements. I could have supported a few of his stated goals - certainly infrastructure. But instead of starting with that, which would have had widespread public and bipartisan support, Trump immediately began flailing around with one executive order after another, creating chaos and increasing division. He was clueless about appearances, immoderate, careless with details, unable to be nuanced in any way, unwilling to learn from others with experience.

The man is not fit for office, and has not grown in understanding or judgment since becoming president. Instead, he is endangering the welfare of the American people and of the world by his carelessness and utter incompetence and volatility.

How much longer must we suffer this man's presence in the Oval Office?

Regarding this story:
1) It's been corroborated by multiple sources

2) Trump basically confirmed that he has the power to reveal whatever he wants (indirectly confirming)

3) we now know who the source was


Thankfully - we know all of this because of our free and open press. Unfortunately, we only learned about it later because Trump didn't even let our press in initially.


I do wonder how you 1) think the story isn't true and 2) puts our country at risk. If the details are untrue, who is at risk exactly?
Its nothing new. My entire political ideology is set up to have a council select a leader among the best of the best. 1 party state etc.

Ok, I totally see why a person who's political philosophy is antithetical the the beliefs that America is founded upon would like Trump now, carry on.

Other conservatives reading this - beware your bedfellows, sometimes the enemy of your enemy is not your friend.

Treasonous because the loss of a valuable intelligence source is damaging to the US. Only a person who wants the US to fail would gleefully wish that we would lose our intelligence allies.
