Security clearance revoked for Jon Brennan

If anyone is in ANY doubt that Trump is a vindictive narcissist they should end their delusion now. Not only that, but it's dangerous to the country.

Removing Brennan's security clearance (Or any other recent intel agent/chief) makes it impossible for the current chiefs to seek information from those who have had previous experience of any given security threat.

In short. Trump ONLY matters about him and him alone and what people say about him. He cares nothing about the country, and it's shameful that the supine GOP spineless assholes say nothing.

Putin must be having fits of laughter. He doesn't even have to try to get into the US, Trump is throwing down the red carpet.

Brennan [b]SHOULD[/b] have had his security clearance revoked.

Not because of Trump's reasoning.

But because he [b]LIED[/b] to Congress about the CIA was spying on members of the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee.

And because he ordered the transfer of terrorist suspects to countries where they could be [b]TORTURED[/b].

Why are people on the left defending this asshole?

Oh, I know. Because it's someone Trump doesn't like.

[big][b]NOT A GOOD ENOUGH REASON.[/b][/big]

@beckyromero Mmm, but the reasons you cited aren't the reasons he's had his clearance revoked. Nor the other seven on the same list...No. They've had their clearances revoked because Trump doesn't like what they've said about HIM. And it's interesting the original dictat was signed off on 26th July; Yesterday was the day after his protege was telling more stuff about him, this Brennan announcement was a shiny thing to divert things away from what his protege was saying.

This is the MO. Say nice things about Trump he'll say nice things about them; That is his immature approach to how the world works. If the rest of the world worked and chose to work with only those people that say nice things about them, no-one would have a job!

I've worked with people who I respected because they're experience and expertise far outweighed my personal opinion of them. But Trump has the opposite approach, he couldn't care less about anyone's opinion unless they incorporate their devotion to him. Is that the way it's going to be from now on?

I didn't say they were.

I'm saying what the reasons [b]SHOULD HAVE BEEN[/b].
