This story is just breaking so I am trying to show some restraint before throwing Trump under the bus, but I have to think the WP has concrete evidence to support this claim, or else they risk being sued to oblivion.
However, what they claim is absolutely sickening...
Again if these allegations are true, Trump essentially signed the death certificate of the intelligence operative deep undercover in ISIS territory. At best, this person is removed from the territory immediately, at worse he is captured and tortured by ISIS for being a mole. But Either way the US loses a key ally providing information on Terrorists, which puts America at risk and exposes its citizens to danger.
I admit I am a democrat, but I was willing to be patient with Trump because like the rest of the country I was fed up with the American political system. However, Trump has quickly moved from being obnoxious and divisive, to being dangerous to the United States. He literally does not seem to grasp the consequences that his words/actions can cause. Its honestly sickening, and disheartening that the leader of our country can be so short sighted.

The partner had not given the United States permission to share the material with Russia, and officials said that Trump?s decision to do so risks cooperation from an ally that has access to the inner workings of the Islamic State. After Trump?s meeting, senior White House officials took steps to contain the damage, placing calls to the CIA and National Security Agency...
Trump revealed the city in the Islamic State?s territory where the U.S. intelligence partner detected the threat.
