US Politics Thread

If Trump is indicted for document mishandling and it transpires that US national secrets have been divulged to foreign nationals due to extortion, bribery, financial gains or any other reason then I don't think people realise how bad that actually is.

Essentially the USA have allowed the election of someone who in normal circumstances wouldn't be allowed a Secret security clearance (due to personal and business associations plus previous/current financial impropriety), let alone access TS/SCI codeword stuff. This guy wouldn't be allowed near the stationary cabinet unsupervised, but they elected him president and gave him access to EVERYTHING.

Fair play to Russia if they engineered this situation. They do love to play the long game.
 
As an intelligence service the CIA has been fucked for the long term by Trump even if only a fraction of the things he is alleged to have done are true, and in reality it’s probably a lot worse than anything we’ve seen so far. Who in their right mind will agree to supply intelligence to the USA when they can’t trust that the USA will protect their identity from those they are gathering information from. The damage Trump has done to the western world is incalculable.
 
I don't really mean it. It's just extraordinary how wrong they got him, and how smug they were telling us how wrong we were.
I said it on day one of the thread the night Trump was elected how this would end.

There were more than a few naysayers, but one by one they dwindled away leaving us with nutters and WUM's who profess to be cleverer than everyone else.

I knew it would be a total disaster but the scale of it exceeded my expectations. I foolishly thought that the institutions in place would keep him in check. Instead he’s managed to corrupt them all.

I followed Trump's antics way before he even decided to run.

He's ALWAYS been a wrong un'. I'm pretty sure this hasn't been a solo effort though. He's had assistance.
