TRUMP DANGER TO NATIONAL SECURITY

Last night my husband and I had one of our many discussions about Trump, the theme is typically, “How did we get here? How was this man elected?” For those who follow Ms. Momocracy you know that I struggle with the idea that so many fellow Americans, friends and neighbors would be willing to overlook Trump’s severe character flaws or that they bought into his campaign rhetoric built on a policy of hate.

“Lock her up”—I have family members who believed that one. In fact, I remember during the early stages of the campaign saying to a family member that I believed Trump could never be elected and their response was that Hillary would be indicted before the election. They truly believed she had done something illegal. The emails! The EMAILS! National Security violations.

Yes, not using a secured server was dumb and should be scrutinized BUT isn’t the bigger issue that Russia hacked these emails with the intention of influencing the US election, discrediting Hillary, and electing their Putin Patsy, Trump. And that Russia planted stories about said emails, to keep the story “hot” so that Americans would buy into their manipulative-calculated scandal. AND stories about the scandal were feed to areas of the country where people were more likely to buy into the conspiracy theory, and more likely to be Trumpsters. Trumpsters, YOU WERE DUPED and the worst thing about the email scandal is that you will still not admit it was a Russian made scandal and you were influenced by it. #FarcicalFoxNews and Trumpsters are still focused on Hillary’s emails, which by the way REVEALED NOTHING.

Trump did more damage in ONE meeting with Lavrov and Kislyak, then the entire Russian Hillary Email scheme.

That meeting was a total $hit show:

  1. The meeting was arranged only after firing Comey the night before
  2. It was rumored to only have been arranged at Putin’s request
  3. Trump banned US press from the room but not the Russian press
  4. Trump divulged classified “CODEWORD” security information; security so sensitive you have to use code words to talk about it
  5. The security leak was a result of a ego brag, “My security is so good, it is the best…”
  6. The security was from an international ally [Israel–Trump later reveals this breach on his visit to Israel]
  7. Trump also bragged [theme emerging] about firing the “Nut Job” Comey and in the same breath provided evidence against himself for obstruction of justice in the FBI investigation into Russian/Trump collusion.

“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said, according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

Still don’t believe he is a threat to national security? Maybe this meeting was just a “bad day” moment or you buy into the fact that as President he can do whatever he wants, that this was not illegal and he is a smart man that would never put the US in harm because of his incompetence….well, if you believe that you must be a die-hard Trumpster and nothing short an earth implosion will likely get you to change your mind.

Trump is on a international tour this week and his security breaches continue. When he meet with Israel this week, he publicly drove home the point that he can’t be trusted. Saying something like this, “I did not say it was Israel who provided the classified information that I then passed on to the Russians, see I can keep a secret.” Do you think Israel is going to share highly classified intel with the US, with Trump, now—if you think so, you just may be a Trump supporter.

    Or how about when he brags [yup, the bragging is definitely a problem] to the Philippine President on Wednesday about two nuclear submarines of the coast of North Korea–cover blown, folks.
    This man is a danger to himself, a danger to Americans, and a danger to the world.

TRUMP DIVULGES SECRET INTEL TO RUSSIA CLAIMING HE HAS THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT TO DO SO

Trump administration’s vision was to “Make America Great Again (MAGA)”. How? Draining the Swamp, Building a Wall…Locking Her Up—-oh, those are not real policies? Those are just racist, elitist, fascist-propoganda chants. There are many problems with Trump’s MAGA vision, the first being that America was already great, the second is hate based agenda will NEVER make anything great and the third is you would be hard pressed to find a reasonable person who finds anything great about Trump at this point.

For those who saw Trump as he was long ago, none of this is a surprise. The surprise is how long it is taking for everyone else to see this man has severe character flaws that make him ineligible and incompetent to serve in the role of President of the US. If someone shows you they are morally bankrupt, not to be trusted, a liar, a misogynist, a racist, a xenophobe, a poor business man, etc—at some point you have to believe them.

Trump’s latest scandal is the Russia/Comey/Russia debacle. Trump and his administration are under FBI investigation for Russian collusion and Russian interference in the US election process. We know Russia hacked our election process and worked to help get Trump elected but we don’t know what role Trump or any of his cronies played in the process; hence, the FBI investigation.

So last week Trump fired FBI director James Comey. He had his press team publicly state that Comey was fired for his handling of the hacked email issue and that the firing was based on the recommendation of Deputy Attorney General, Rod Rosenstein, who is rumored to have threatened to quit over the whole debacle—-but he did not and is still working there, now he is helping his boss, Dirty Jeff Sessions, find Comey’s replacement. Does it bother them that Sessions was forced to recuse himself from all investigations into TrumpRussia because he himself LIED UNDER OATH during his confirmation hearing? or that Trump originally stated it was Rosenstein’s and Sessions’ recommendation that Comey be fired and Sessions was not supposed to be involved in the TrumpRussia scandal——OR is the bigger $hit Show the fact that Trump came out days later in an interview with Lester Holt and claimed that he knew all along he was going to fire Comey–basically proving his staff to be liars—-or that they are lead by an incompetent buffoon.

Last night the Washington Post broke a story that Trump discussed highly sensitive intel regarding ISIS during his impromptu meeting with Lavrov and Kslyak. Yes, the same meeting that took place the day after Comey’s firing, the same meeting that it was reported the US press was banned from attending, the same meeting that a photo leaked from the Russian team….the stench of all of this is overwhelming.

Trump’s response to the Washington Post’s article about Trump leaking highly classified intel to the Russians….well here is his tweet (yup, we are still talking about his tweets) from this morning:

 

“President Donald J. Trump said early Tuesday that he had an “absolute right” to share with top Russian officials information about an Islamic State threat during a White House meeting last week. (3)”

The President can declassify intel but at what point does national security become an issue–NOW—the time is NOW. Our President is illegitimate and incompetent. He is working to remove all checks and balances. When will Republicans rise up for their Country and put their Country over their party?
