"Today was likely Donald Trump’s
very first day of getting classified intelligence briefings as part of his role as the Republican nominee. He has been provided these briefings against the wishes of
high ranking former intelligence agents, as well as many currently
still working in the Pentagon. The concern for many has been Trump’s inability to keep his mouth shut, his mercurial temper, and his relentless need to boast about things he doesn’t understand.
Republicans have responded by saying Trump would be more presidential now that he’s the nominee. Surely, he wouldn’t, say,
leak any classified information he receives as part of his new access to information. Surely!
But now there’s this. At a rally in Colorado Springs, Trump was deep into a rant about making countries pay the United States for protection when he suggested we shouldn’t have to keep paying “rent” for the military base we keep in Saudi Arabia.
The last American base in Saudi Arabia was supposed to have closed down shortly after 9/11. After unrest during the invasion of Iraq, then Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld officially closed the last remaining U.S. military base in Saudi Arabia and gave it back to the Saudi government. If America does still have a base in Saudi Arabia it was a site not meant to be made public. The consequences of having that exposed could quite have massive consequences for America’s role in the Middle East.
There are two possibilities here: Either Donald Trump is so woefully out of touch with American foreign policy that he thinks a base that closed down
13 years ago is still open – or he just leaked a
staggering nugget of classified information. Should it come to light that there is indeed a secret base in Saudi Arabia, you can forget about homebrew servers – Trump just committed a massive crime.
