Trump ramps up personal cell phone use

(CNN)President Donald Trump is increasingly relying on his personal cell phone to contact outside advisers, multiple sources inside and outside the White House told CNN, as Trump returns to the free-wheeling mode of operation that characterized the earliest days of his administration.

"He uses it a lot more often more recently," a senior White House official said of the President's cell phone

========================================================
With Trump's move to conduct the Presidency in his free-wheeling the without the control of Chief of Staff John Kelly, he is making increased use of his personal cell to talk to friends & advisers. These communications are apparently not secure. No record of these calls is maintained by the WH switchboard.

This shift in WH communications policy is being seen as a great vulnerability to our national security. There are lots of spies in Washington with the capacity to eavesdrop & record these conversations.

wasn't one of the many many many many many many ..... (Etc x 100) many criticism's lobbed at Hilliary Clinton was that her private email server endangered national security and made her judgement unfit to be president?

by that logic, trump should be out the door because of his bloody use of his unsecured cell phone?

What could possibly go wrong?

Which like so very many things, was supposed to be a problem when Hillary did it. No doubt someone will be along shortly to demand for someone to "show me where" Trump mishandled classified information, utterly overlooking the facts that if there's no record of the content of the calls nobody could know that and that it was supposedly the danger to national security that justified 7 congressional Benghazi investigations + the Weiner laptop crap.

According to the Clintonites, it was no big deal.

Not to mention, we don't even know if this is true.
 
Last week, the Department of Homeland Security confirmed for the first time that it is aware of unauthorized cell-site simulators, the surveillance tools often called stingrays or IMSI Catchers, in various parts of Washington DC.

While it's not surprising that foreign intelligence groups or criminal actors would be cell-snooping in the nation's capital, the DHS statement is the first US government acknowledgement that sensitive political communications, not to mention those of anyone in DC, are at risk of interception by devices that are currently unaccounted for. In spite of this step, though, observers find it unlikely that any group will move to defuse the threat in the foreseeable future.........

And we were told by you people that it wasn't a problem.....Ok then....

What post # was that where you were told by "you people?"

Trump is a disaster.
 
Trump is a disaster.

Major understatement, meant, likely, to leave Trump conservatives/supporters with a tiny shred of respectability.
 
Complain all you want about HRC's past mishandling of classified Government communications, but the Adolescent-in-Chief is at it on a daily basis with his cellphone. You Righties should crank up Trey Gowdy to investigate this ongoing violation of our national security. I'm sure he has time now that he's tied up those Benghazi hearings.

Lots of unnamed sources...some outside the WH (as if they, whomever they are, can see what's going on inside the WH)...doing a lot of speculating and spreading a lot of rumors. yawn...

Oh well, as Comey says...nobody can "contain" Trump. Suck it up, snowflakes.
