More and more republican politicians are agreeing to an independent special prosecutor.

Oh man, this is getting really ugly for the Orange Man.

How many does this make today? Half a dozen or so?

And they are all saying he same phrase, "it may be that we need to look to an independent commission or special prosecutor."

Besides, it isn't stupid or traitorous (nor is it short-sighted), and by the way, you don't even know what information was shared.

The President is the Commander-in-Chief. He can share what he thinks appropriate, and he can classify or declassify whatever he thinks is appropriate. And you are not the arbiter of what he should or shouldn't share.
You're right. I'm not the arbiter of anything. And you're also right that Trump can share whatever he wants.

But when you've got Europeans and Israelis saying that they're not going to share intel with the U.S. because Trump is a blabbermouth, you've got a problem.

There is an article in the NY times about this, read the last 3 paragraphs.
Putin jokes that he would release a record of Trump's Russian meeting with Congress - ABC News

I would be willing to bet, this all falls back to when Comey refused to prosecute Hillary....Trump way back then, made comments about the FBI being crooked, and such....

So, he fires Comey, which to me, says it all....Trump was angry that Comey didn't bring Hillary up on charges, and said, that when he is President, he would see that Hillary was charged.

this is more sickening than any TV Soap Opera....so now the Liberal media is taking it way out of context and calling for impeachment....in the meantime, none of the facts are even in...incredible!

From the very beginning of the of the presidential election campaigns, they were trying so hard to get rid of Trump....
I tell you, I have no faith in Washington, or the media...none

At least.

The smart republicans that want to keep their jobs after the 2018 mid-terms are distancing themselves from the Trump White House dumpster fire.

Opinion piece on this very topic.

Republicans must impeach Trump

Yet she wasn't....this wasn't over Russia....not in the least, this started months ago.

I don't know, I guess we have to wait for more information....but this has been a witch hunt from the very beginning.

So then it didn't happen. Can't prove it and only have supposition? No Bueno.

Those aren't unnamed sources.
Please show where Trump said he gave them "classified information" or even "Sensitive information"? Seriously, I've not seen that anywhere.
