Both officials have carefully parsed their words to deny something that was never claimed to begin with. So it looks like they are denying the accusation when they actually have not. That said, no White House administration, regardless of party, is going to admit to something like this.
Actually, if the intelligence was gathered and is owned by a foreign ally and we (the US, Trump, Executive branch, White House, etc...) have not been given dissemination rights to that information, then we've just violated a lot of security protocols and severely damaged the trust and relationship we have with that ally and others. Who wants to trust the US if we're just going to share the information with Russia? |
Seems the information came from Israel, who, as we know, are not exactly up in arms against Russia.
