It's fortunate that president Trump has you to interpret his childish and insane communications to the world. What's weak is being an apologist for Trump's behavior. He's the leader of the free world behaving like a child.
So we have a sitting president and his admin at the end of their term using the nation's intelligence services to wiretap and surveil the presidential candidate of the opposing political party. If that's not bad enough . . . .
This same president issues an EO which grants access to this previously closely held and confidential signal intelligence to all the 16 or 17 intelligence agencies, increasing the number of people who have now have access by a factorial increase, clearly not concerned in the least with the right to privacy of the electorate. One might ask that if this was such an important EO to issue, why hadn't it be done years earlier in this administration. If that's not bad enough . . . .
Previously held classified and confidential signals intelligence now, predictably - one could legitimately say purposefully, are leaked to the press and public, damaging the now sitting president and his administration, since given the factorial larger potential number of leakers the EO grants them anonymity to continue to continue to leak classified intelligence, a heinous federal crime.
And you call the objection to this as childish.
I suppose that had this happened to Obama, it'd have been childish then as well?
I suppose that the next Democrat president has this inflicted on him, then that's OK with you as well?
Somehow I rather doubt it.
