    He had 100s of top secret documents post presidency, and was gleefully waving them around at people. We know some of them were war plans.

    Its also common for presidents to be briefed about some matters after they leave office.

    Messy or mostly wrong, he still likely provided some accurate and dangerous information to a foreign national.

      Oh definitely.

      But also…bigly nukes. He knows nuclear. His uncle was nuclear.

      • Doesn’t matter. It is enough for him to say something like

        “we have very smart captains. They are in the south chinese sea, very bright men, they know how to hide a submarine in a trench they told me. I like trenches. My grandfather shot 500 people from a trench every day in WW1. Best men, he won the war for us i’m telling you.”

        For submarines the very information that they are in any specific area is a breach of security.

          Reminds of that time with the Iran nuclear plant or something and the ultra resolution satellite images and names of spies or something.

      But, those foreign nationals have to try to figure out what stuff he told them was accurate, and how much was him doing the equivalent of altering weather maps with sharpies.
