Let's not forget what Paul Ryan had to say in a tweet last summer about Hillary Clinton and classified information:

"Individuals who are "extremely careless" with classified information should be denied further access to such info."

Nope. The Erick Erickson show's claim is a new wrinkle.

Don't worry. I'm sure you'll derail it and start 20 new threads to try to compensate your darling's submission to criticism.

Well-deserved criticism at that.

I see

You think some nobody's opinion is worthy of its own thread, despite there being an existing thread on the topic already because you are completely hysterical

Do carry on

From today's Erick Erickson show:

I tend to take these stories about the President with a grain of salt. We have seen key details of a number of salacious stories retracted within 48 hours. The media hates the President so much that they’ll run a negative story about him without very much provocation. Anti-Trump sources embedded within the administration in the career civil service, etc. will leak to the press and confirmation bias sets in.

What sets this story apart for me, at least, is that I know one of the sources. And the source is solidly supportive of President Trump, or at least has been and was during Campaign 2016. But the President will not take any internal criticism, no matter how politely it is given. He does not want advice, cannot be corrected, and is too insecure to see any constructive feedback as anything other than an attack.

So some of the sources are left with no other option but to go to the media, leak the story, and hope that the intense blowback gives the President a swift kick in the butt. Perhaps then he will recognize he screwed up. The President cares vastly more about what the press says than what his advisers say. That is a real problem and one his advisers are having to recognize and use, even if it causes messy stories to get outside the White House perimeter.

I am told that what the President did is actually far worse than what is being reported. The President does not seem to realize or appreciate that his bragging can undermine relationships with our allies and with human intelligence sources. He also does not seem to appreciate that his loose lips can get valuable assets in the field killed.

You can call these sources disloyal, traitors, or whatever you want. But please ask yourself a question — if the President, through inexperience and ignorance, is jeopardizing our national security and will not take advice or corrective action, what other means are available to get the President to listen and recognize the error of his ways?

This is a real problem and I treat this story very seriously because I know just how credible, competent, and serious — as well as seriously pro-Trump, at least one of the sources is.

Who violated the law and leaked the info to the press?

Trump the President of the US, who has authority to release just about any info he wishes, may have said something that might tick off a third party, but never mentioned the third party. So some lesser individual who did not have authority to pass on that information and may not have had a right to that information did give that information to the press who would spread it far and wide, and somehow that leaker is noble? I don’t get the thought process.

It is revealing to note that none of the Trump friendly posters who responded to the OP addressed the substance of the OP.

Bosco attacked the poster who posted the OP then attempted to deflect claiming that there was already a thread on this issue and this new thread was unnecessary duplication. Aylee chose to attack the people who leaked the info in the OP while Termy couldn't be bothered taking any of it seriously and simply called it all "bullshit".

Their refusal to address the substance of the OP is glaring. This refusal is made all the more significant because the source of the OP is Trump friendly and possesses impeccable conservative credentials. This surely adds to the credibility of the OP. Criticism from the left can be expected but criticism from within the ranks of the right, from Trump sympathetic media is another, far more damaging matter.

The refusal of Trump friendly posters to address the main points of the OP simply underlines and emphasises the credibility of the OP's claims. Unless Trump friendly posters can get it together to address and refute those claims, then their credibility can only grow and grow.

Are you so gullible to believe that ? Behind closed doors, talking about classified information, and they know ?

How the fuck do they know anything that went on in there ? In fact how could this even have become an issue ?

I call bullshit.
