Literally everything, even Trump himself, points to this being true. No one admits it's true but everyone's been very careful to minimize the damages of something that supposedly isn't true, and no one involved is actually denying what happened. Wake up and look around you and you might notice what you call fake news maybe, perhaps, possibly, aren't always fake news! Every single piece that's based on anything real points to Trump leaking classified information, and every single piece I've seen denying this is based on nothing at all. This isn't bullshit, this is real. At this point, the only thing that's bullshit about this is denying this.

It's also funny you think you know there's nothing to be found, even by looking. I doubt there's a single person on these forums that knows enough to be able to make that claim, and I doubt there's that many people in the whole world that can make that claim. Of course no one can make the opposing claim either (and I personally I haven't seen anyone make that claim; the closest claim is that things look pretty darn suspicious and should be investigated). It's pretty obvious you've already made your mind and are willing to accept only information that supports your beliefs. The truth isn't found by believing in what you believe to be true, it's found by doubting every single thing you possibly can, and then some.

The NSA advisor yet again TODAY stated the conversations and info that POTUS had shared was acceptable and not anything POTUS wouldn't share with anyone else. The funny thing is that somebody DID leak classified info.......the person telling the media that "classified info" was leaked! Yet no one is concerned about that. Also your understanding is a little off, nobody is denying anything because nobody will talk about what is classified and what is not classified. 

Legal and acceptable are two different things but sure. Also, I'd like to see your source because I've missed it and I don't expect to find it easily myself among all the stories about this case.

Which one do you find more concerning: Someone leaking that the president is leaking info that probably shouldn't be leaked to one of the greatest adversaries (not enemies, mind you) of the US, or the president himself leaking said info? I'd say the first leak is actually the responsible thing to do in case like this. If Trump keeps pulling off stuff like this, people need to know about it. Since his administration is not going to admit anything on its own, someone needs to leak it. Simple, really.

People could easily talk about this subject without ever touching what exactly was leaked, so the reason you presented doesn't sound very convincing. I have a hard time coming up with any other logical explanation to why no one's denying what happened other than the leak being true and no one wanting to outright lie about it. It makes a lot of sense, but I haven't seen any other explanations about the denials that makes any sense at all. Maybe I've missed them, but I sure haven't seen them.
