Well...someone has egg on their face.
Very silly attempt to smear Trump. Good thing nobody with any real sense here took it seriously.
Hoax Bin?
Have you not noticed every attempt to smear Trump of late ends with an OP with egg on their face?

It is YOUR assumption that this is an attempt to "smear" anyone. I see a little yolk there on your chin.
But for the record? I'd believe this about Trump in a heartbeat if I didn't have a brain because I view him as a petulant, barely semi-literate man child. And there's not a doubt in my mind that he couldn't be trusted with certain information. Should he become President, he's going to have to be heavily monitored and handled. That's for damn sure.

I disagree. Whether or not EITHER candidate gets security briefings is very much an issue worth discussing, especially if the security personnel involved at high levels are doing their version of 'hair on fire' in regards to it with what they can insinuate to the press.
Hillary has been tarred and feathered as 'extremely careless' and will NEVER live that down.
Trump seems to think it's all a game somehow, and that's a spectacularly redacted version of what I think of him.
What I'd really like to know is, at what point with the Joint Chiefs, NSA, FBI and other top staffers, does 'protect and defend the Constitution from ALL enemies, foreign and domestic' come into a moral Armageddon with either candidate? What happens, what does the Constitution say, if you find yourself briefing someone who obviously cannot be trusted with the information, or will use it for personal enrichment reasons? What if the guy you're in the Situation Room with appears to be unhinged? It's a goddam horror movie plot.
Would any of us trust either of these people with our deepest darkest secrets or our most valuable possessions? With a newborn child? With a puppy? Hard boiled egg?
Because *I* wouldn't.

Twas a flag hunting smear attempt by a liberal looking to bash Trump, yet like clockwork, the liberal had nothing and got called on it.
Triggering followed.
And that's not an assumption, it's a fact. Just like Hillary is a criminal is a fact yet you're stuck on Trump talking about common knowledge.

But to be honest, a lot of people actually don't think he can be trusted with this kind of information. And based on his past and present behavior, are they really that far off the mark?

Why trash binned?
This was an actual news story, posted on several sites, retracted on some, and debunked or not, whether it panned out or not, it happened and it still begs the question and raises issues about the candidate. Plenty (if not most) of the items posted here on ATS are as bad or worse than this. But it's okay if it's something that trashes the "side" you all happen to trash with. That's the deep-seeded hypocrisy that many document here daily.
As for my personal opinion of Trump, which I stated as an aside, I am as entitled to state that as some of you all are to state yours of him over and over and over. I think he would make a horrific president. There are red flags everywhere. Some people just don't see them. Others do.
Now yell at me about how I'm a Hillary supporter, which I am not. I don't happen to believe that either one of these people would be good for the country and neither will get my vote.
