Remember all that denying that this even happened that came out of the WH through  their surrogates?!?!

As President I wanted to share with Russia (at an openly scheduled W.H. meeting) which I have the absolute right to do, facts pertaining....

...to terrorism and airline flight safety. Humanitarian reasons, plus I want Russia to greatly step up their fight against ISIS & terrorism.

The POTUS just verified that the WaPo story was true and accurate.

Of course he can do whatever he wants...he just has to lie about itwhen he gets caught our of habit?

Oh dear Lord. What, in his mind, prevented the Russians from greatly stepping up their fight against ISIS in the first place. That they missed highly classified information from the US? 

Information the US gathered from a friend who obviously didn't want to share with Russia? That did the trick? Betraying said friend?

In this shape, the US can't be an ally or a trusted partner any longer. We had vague hopes in guys called Rex and Mad Dog. Vague hopes Trump would leave the important stuff to some experts. But, nah. Rex is a blind loyalist, McMaster just destroyed his reputation, MadDog and the professionals are nowhere to be seen, your president passes on confidential information to Russia, the country trying to underminde democracy and promote destablizisatioin on all fronts. Including the US home front.

And the anti anti-Trump crowd is even defending that. Which is just as worrying.
