Team Trump Just Blew Its Cover

by John R. Schindler John Schindler is a security expert and former National Security Agency analyst and counterintelligence officer. Read his full bio here. In a recent column I noted how President Donald Trump seemingly can bend time in a near-supernatural fashion. Our commander-in-chief’s “fine-honed ability to make days seem like weeks and weeks seem like months, even years,” I observed, has the remarkable effect of nullifying even grave mistakes by jam-packing them into short periods of...

Yeah, because there’s no way a $400 million “gift” could be a bribe to an infamously easy to manipulate man.

Not to mention what a GREAT idea it is to have a foreign-made gift be (checks notes) AirForce One — what’s supposed to be one of the most tightly secure vehicle that a president travels in. No way *at all* that is a blindingly obvious security risk. Nope. No physical or digital “Trojan horse” possible with this “gift.” No chance of that at all.

And there certainly *can’t be* (linked in a comment below) bogus claims that Trump himself made in 2016 about Hillary Clinton being unfit for office because she “accepted” foreign gifts.

(Actually, the ethical way to “receive” foreign gifts is for them to automatically go to the U.S. National Archives or the federal General Services Administration. AFTER a diplomat/president/etc. leaves office, THEN they can *buy* the gifts back at an estimated fair market price. That’s the only way they end up for personal uses. See link below.)

Anyway, please read and spread around this surprisingly informative, internally well-sourced article from Buzzfeed and/or the other article(s) linked below.
