Again, it falls ultimately to the President of the United States on when and whether to declassify something.

This pitiful excuse of a leader still is undermining this country whenever he has the opportunity.

Calm down and stop with the histrionics.
He can, but he didn't because he doesn't know the difference. He's an idiot and doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

Another low information response that makes it clear you didn't understand my post.

Yes, they knew we had spy satellites.

This photo is a clear indication of exactly how good they are.

Yes it does, and you say that like any choice he makes is thus automatically the right choice.

That is how you view this maniac, like some kind of god-king rather than a president.

Trump is obviously taking directives from Russia. Trump is Putin's sleeper cell.

Some former spies said he behaved like a Russian asset at the G7.

The president decides what's classified, period. That's how it works. It's like dealing with hysterical children out here.

Again, conflating the capability with whether or not it was the right thing to do.

This only happens because these two paths never cross in the Trumpist brain, Trump, and the possibility he could be wrong about anything.
