quote:

President Trump was only vaguely aware of a controversial, classified memo about the FBI’s Russia investigation when two House conservatives brought it to his attention in a Jan. 18 phone call.?

The conversation piqued Trump’s interest.?

Over the next two weeks, according to interviews with eight senior administration officials and other advisers to the president, he tuned in to cable television segments about the memo. He talked to friends and advisers about it. And, before he had even read it, Trump became absolutely convinced of one thing: The memo needed to come out.

Shouldn’t the Commander in Chief actually read a document the FBI says could do damage to our national security before deciding to release it? What would happen to a CEO if he did the same thing? He’d be fired immediately.

Disgraceful! How could anyone defend this?

P.S. He apparently based his decision on Fox News segments he had seen. Unbelievable!

So the writer just tells us what is in Trump's head.

Great source.

Oh. Have a downvote

CNN has already said it’s full of lies, dangerous to the Republic, and made up by the GOP to deceive the American people, without reading it.

This just in. No legislators read Obamacare before passing it.

Is it a dud or will it destroy national security? Make up your mind.

Obama said he learned shite all the time by watching tv news. Even his news conference spokesmen said so. I heard Carney and Ernest say this several times. What's your point?

I agree he should have read it, but what harm is there in releasing a memo that might shed light on abuses/corruption in the FBI/DOJ?

The only harm I see is to those who are corrupt, and they seem to be the loudest voices opposing it.

Maybe he just heard about it just like you did, on the news reports.
