In reply to the discussion: Trump has concealed details of his face-to-face encounters with Putin from senior officials in admin [View all]MBS
(9,688 posts)Can't remember which encounter it was - but I do think it was only one of them. And I remember being outraged and worried (OK, freaked out) at the time.
As several people have noted on this thread, many of us had long noticed and worried about Trump's strange insistence on privacy and lack of ordinary record keeping of Putin meetings. But what this article does, to absolutely damning effect, is to lay out the consistency of the pattern, and to emphasize the bizarre and unprecedented level of secrecy is (keeping facts from the SoS, the security council, and all other close aides?! taking the interpreter's notes! swearing the interpreter to secrecy!) - all of this made much worse by the identity of the partner (Putin) and the highly suspicious, presumably treasonous, nature of the conversation itself.
And coming so soon after the report about FBI counterintelligence (was the timing of these two stories coordinated in any way? Makes me wonder whether the intelligence community has now had enough) . . .surely, surely, his treachery, and that of his enablers, should be incontrovertible now.
