        Oh really! Trump loved WikiLeaks during the campaign, but he's not so fond of leaks as president. Why is that?

        All part of draining the swamp. Nobody expected it to be drained overnight.
        Nonsense! He's making the swamp worse what with his list of Goldman Sachs alumni and rich business friends in the Trump Administration.

          Because WikiLeaks wasn't dealing in classified information, dumbass.

          Seriously, how many times does that need to be explained?

            Classified or not, they are called whistle blowers for a reason. If Gen. Flynns illegal underming of U.S. policy in secret talks with foriegn entities wasn't revealed, he would still be NSA. If Trumps intention was to undermine the U.S. and its ties to our Nato allies in favor of aligning the U.S. with Russia, would you have a problem with intelligence leaks exposing that plan to the American public, or would you consider it a patriotic act?

              That's not why he resigned. He resigned because he lied to Pence.

              I have a problem with ANYONE exposing classified secrets.

                So if you were an intel agent and had information that implicated the president as treasoness you would keep silent about it.

                  Yes. I took an oath to protect the secrets I have been entrusted with. My word is my bond. That people like Snowden lack that integrity isn't my problem.

                    This has been pointed out to you so many times that continuing with this discredited narrative is beginning to look like a deliberate falsehood on your part.

                      Did you even read what you posted? There is a difference between leaking classified material (state secrets) and non-classified secrets

                          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                            I meant non-classified information not secrets

                            Still, I wonder if poor little Jimmy-boy comprehends the difference.

                                Look, you guys have been flogging this dead horse for months. Surely if there was anything to this Russian narrative then something, anything concrete would have been discovered by now. Instead it's just the same old rumors, the same old "unnamed sources", the same old fake dossiers, the same old unfounded speculation that liberals have been hyperventilating about since last October, all fed to gullible idiots like you by the same media that served you phony polls saying that Hillary was practically guaranteed to win the election. It's time to leave your liberal fantasy world and join the rest of us here in the real one.
