Intelligence officers sabotaging Trump campaign
American Thinker ^ | June 3, 2016 | Thomas Lifson

I think this is outrageous. Mark Hosenball of Reuters reports:

Some U.S. intelligence officials are concerned that Donald Trump's "shoot from the hip" style could pose national security risks as they prepare to give him a routine pre-election briefing once he is formally anointed as the Republican presidential nominee.

Eight senior security officials told Reuters they had concerns over briefing Trump, whose brash, unpredictable campaign style has been a feature of his rise as an insurgent candidate. Despite their worries, the officials said the "Top Secret" briefing to each candidate would not deviate from the usual format to avoid any appearance of bias.

Most of the officials asked for anonymity to discuss a domestic political issue.

They’re afraid of this man of principle, that’s what they’re afraid of...they’ll get fired for their prostitutes and their drunken flaws.

It would be more dangerous to brief “loose lips” hildabeast. She has no concern for the secrets of this country. Shame on the feckless FBI regarding her crimes.

Meanwhile Hillary Clinton sells American security to any foreign country willing to pay her and billions of our hard earned cash disappears into the pockets of her contributors.

They're "security officials" and yet they're leaking to the press. Anyone else see the irony?

Trump needs to fire them on day 1.

You don’t make the money Trump has made by running off your mouth without thinking about it.

Head is shaking in disbelief. These eight top security officials can’t even keep secret their desire to undermine Trump? One has to wonder how well they keep other secrets.

I’m sure Mr. Trump, as president, will seek out the advice of Obuma’s failed and demonstrably idiotic national security team.

HaHaHa!!

The Boobamba/Jarrett administration apparently thinks that b/c Donald Trump plans to secure our borders, to protect Americans, and stop coddling our enemies..... that’s a threat to our national security????

No question Boobamba and Hillary created ISIS savagery by destabilizing the Mideast, precipitating the mass invasion of Europe and sparking the murder of Christians worldwide.......all of that's the kind of govt activity the sharp-thinking CIA sees as "great progress and stability."

Gee! Where were these fools when an unknown foreign agent was about to run for president?

That’s the one that SS agents code named “Fruitcake”.

Replace that term “National Security” with the muslim term “UMMAH” and everything in the article becomes perfectly clear.

That damn Trump guy is just another “American” “Patriot” and WE JUST CAN’T HAVE THAT!!

We’re SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO beyond all that now.
