    I don't and never have.

    In business the new paradigm is to take people aside in private when you need to chastise them. Nobody higher up in business does crap like publicly demean someone anymore.

    In this instance, if Trump felt the need to chastise the Director, he should do it with well thought out comments. I mean, Director Brennan simply made comments about the President, why shouldn't the President respond in kind?

    He did respond in kind. He yanked his security clearance.

    That's not in kind. It would have been in kind of the Admiral yanked Trump's clearance.

    In kind is just what I said it was, it's remarking on the Admiral's remarks. However, Trump is no genius at making remarks or even doing the most rudimentary research before he opens his mouth so he lacks any weapons in that department. In his frustration, he lashes out by removing Brennan's clearance and going to his room to cry and have a temper tantrum.

    How could I drop her....never picked her up.....I know she didn't have a security clearance...she falls under the " I only hire the best" example.

    She worked in the White House which means she at least should have had a top secret clearance. Instead she was offered a sort of blackmail payment of $180,000.00/yr. to not leak damaging information about Mr. Potato Head. She didn't even have to show up for work. These sorts of blackmail payments look as if they were commonplace. Which fits if you believe Trump is an ass.

    Lol...there's a lot of things that perhaps should be done but that does not change the way things have been done in the past and are currently done.

    These trump humpers will defend him till their death. Haven't seen a cult like this since the Jonestown murders or the Rajneesh. Next thing you know they will be wearing their white robes and marching through airports chanting songs.

    I my opinion, the guy should have been fired and had his security clearance revoked a long time ago when he stated, on national TV that we had a spy in a certain location, there by putting her in jeopardy. The reason for doing it at this time is as has been stated, he used it to monetize his hatred of the sitting president.

    Of course you think it was nothing. I expect nothing less from you.

    Okay, so you think there was substance to the story, if so, do you not think that after all this time, with the media and the anti Trumpers looking for blood, would there not be more that became of it?

    He put one of our operatives on the line and out in the open? That's hard to believe.

    ...yes, because the fact that Trump creates one shit storm after another has nothing to do with it, right?
    ...and something IS becoming of it...and it's name is Mueller.

    I believe trump is a corrupt individual and we will soon see all that Mueller has. You on the other hand refuse to believe anything negative regarding trump.
