President Trump early Tuesday admitted that he shared “facts” with Russian officials, a day after the Washington Post and others reported that the President passed on highly classified info to the Russian foreign minister and Russia’s ambassador to U.S. during a meeting in the Oval Office.
Trump said he had the “absolute right” to share the information.
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.

During the Oval Office meeting last week — which occurred amid the fallout over the President’s firing of FBI Director James Comey — Trump reportedly shared information about an ISIS threat, that was obtained from an American intelligence partner, according to the Washington Post.
“May his days be numbered…”
Why the criticisms, folks? Trump is so dumb he openly brags he shares our secrets with his Russian spymasters. A more clever traitor (like Flynn, for example) would secretly sell out US intelligence contacts and assets.

Active measures are acts of war.
Hey Malcolm, thank you for your service. And look an the bright side. McMaster had the decency to not lie for the President in front of the show media while still wearing his uniform. He at least had that.
