.MaddowBlog: At border, general reminds Pres. Trump to stop discussing sensitive information.
Donald Trump visited the border yesterday, taking a look at new barriers that replaced old barriers, and bragging about his administration’s efforts. As Politico noted, however, the president was so enthusiastic in his boasts that the Republican had to be “gently reprimanded by his hosts in charge of construction.”
Hours after the border photo-op, the Washington Post reported on an intelligence community whistleblower who was alarmed about a provocative “promise” Trump made to a foreign leader. The article added, “It raises new questions about the president’s handling of sensitive information.” As regular readers know, this comes up far more often than it should. It was, after all, just four months into Trump’s presidency that he welcomed Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak into the Oval Office – at the request of Russian President Vladimir Putin – for a visit that was never fully explained.
In a normal White House, this story would’ve been an enormous scandal that haunted the president for the rest of his term, but in the Trump era, it was soon eclipsed by a dozen other evolving controversies. Regardless, the leak happened, and the public has never received an explanation for why the president did what he did.
