Trump Just Can't Keep A Secret, And That's A Big Problem

Boasting of his 'great intel,' US President Donald J.

Trump told Russian officials in 2017 about an ISIS plot so classified that he risked exposing the source.

In the same year, Trump revealed to the Philippines' President Rodrigo Duterte that the US had positioned submarines near North Korea.

That information had previously been so closely held that even some inside the White House were caught by surprise.

And in a recently revealed conversation with journalist Bob Woodward, Trump bragged of a nuclear weapons system 'you haven't even seen or heard about.'

I have built a nuclear — a weapons system that nobody's ever had in this country before.

We have stuff that Putin and Xi have never heard about before.

There's nobody.

What we have is incredible.

US President Donald J.

Trump Conversation with Bob Woodward According to CNN, Trump's disclosures of secret information run the risk of further damaging his already fraught relationship with US intelligence agencies.

Such gossipy phone calls and tweets have undermined his own credibility with US allies, who share sensitive information assuming it will remain confidential.
