Same as usual. Trump’s #1 concern is himself.
On the other hand, I can understand how it must sting to be thought of as so incompetent that you are not briefed about national security matters.
Poor Donald . . .

Talking about himself - again. That quote nutshells Trump. Where was his father born?
His known incompetence, plus his advisors know he probably wouldn't listen. After all he's got more important things to do like play golf at one of his properties (on the taxpayers' dollars) and send tweets to celebrities.

I am actually shocked that the NY Times would report the fact that Trump is being tough on Russia. Kind of goes against their Dem party talking points of the last 3 years.

Hyper-partisans are always shocked when people place ethics of retention of power. It goes against their worldview, by taking a stance they lack the moral basis to achieve themselves.

It was also reported that the officials did not brief Trump on these attacks as they were afraid Trump would leak the information to Russia.
Cant decide whether its funny or frightening, the man who has control over the nuclear button is not trusted with government intelligence.

Are you sure they were attack’s? Seems to me they’re just putting things in place just in case.
It’s frightening since without Trumps knowledge or authorization, they are breaking many UCMJ laws.
We all know what the warmongers, MSMwarmongers, corporatewarmongers, basically the deep state are capable of. Of course the meme is going to be they “can’t trust Trump” I wouldn’t expect anything else from these evil people/groups. Don’t buy it.
Strangerland
Please, whom or what is this 'deep state' you speak of. I myself am not aware of that which they are capable, contrary to your claims that we all know. Please enlighten me, and do you have any additional sources for further research?

How about the delusional conspiracy theorists !
The argument seems all wrong here, the racists, bigots and their sympathizers are the evil ones, decent hard working people in the security services are not.
For people who sit in the WH and pledge loyalty to Russia, they weren't .

It's good you're sticking to close spiracy theories be ausevthey require no actual evidence and the suspension of elementary logic.

Trump is correct. The globalist propaganda press knows no bounds in their opposition to the outsider Trump, who was not supposed to be the annointed one.

True or not, every Russian utility will be spending weeks looking for viruses that won't be uncovered.
If you want to disrupt utilities, there are much easier ways. Ask any engineer.

Try a practice run on somewhere first, say ... Argentina for example(?)

Who's side is the NYT playing for? Notifying the Russians that the U.S. might be involved in cyber-intrusions suggests that the NYT is supporting Russia.
And yet, there are still news media outlets who claim not to know why the public doesn't trust the news media.
