It is amusing. Personally I find it somewhat astonishing that anyone can be so dishonest, and dedicated to defending a morally and intellectually bankrupt party/ideology.
Sophism breathtaking in its scope.

The Post is withholding most plot details, including the name of the city, at the urging of officials who warned that revealing them would jeopardize important intelligence capabilities.
“Everyone knows this stream is very sensitive, and the idea of sharing it at this level of granularity with the Russians is troubling,” said a former senior U.S. counterterrorism official who also worked closely with members of the Trump national security team. He and others spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing the sensitivity of the subject.
The identification of the location was seen as particularly problematic, officials said, because Russia could use that detail to help identify the U.S. ally or intelligence capability involved. Officials said the capability could be useful for other purposes, possibly providing intelligence on Russia’s presence in Syria. Moscow would be keenly interested in identifying that source and perhaps disrupting it.
Russia and the United States both regard the Islamic State as an enemy and share limited information about terrorist threats. But the two nations have competing agendas in Syria, where Moscow has deployed military assets and personnel to support President Bashar al-Assad.
“Russia could identify our sources or techniques,” the senior U.S. official said.
A former intelligence official who handled high-level intelligence on Russia said that given the clues Trump provided, “I don’t think that it would be that hard [for Russian spy services] to figure this out.”

MSM didn't even make them work for it
It appears the intelligence community is doing far more blabbing to the media than the President.

Trump did nothing wrong.
Magic "R"
Got it.
What specifically have I been dishonest about? Serious question.

Do you think foreign governments will be more or less likely to share things they don't have to, if the US president will blab?
The answer is less likely, you dissembling piece of .
dis-sem-ble
verb (used with object), dissembled, dissembling.
1.
to give a false or misleading appearance to; conceal the truth or real nature of:
to dissemble one's incompetence in business.
2.
to put on the appearance of; feign:
to dissemble innocence.
3.
Obsolete. to let pass unnoticed; ignore.
verb (used without object), dissembled, dissembling.
4.
to conceal one's true motives, thoughts, etc., by some pretense; speak or act hypocritically.
I have run all out of patience at this point.
Defend, deflect, dissemble = dishonest, the very least of which is with yourself, cause anybody with an ounce of sense ain't buying the bull anymore.
This president is embarrassing us all, and actively, dangerously, ignorant.
LOL "priming the pump"
Well you've answered your own question. Here's another.
Who has done more blabbing of sensitive information, the intelligence community or Trump?
What specifically have I been dishonest about? Serious question.
ap·o·plec·tic
/ˌapəˈplektik/
adjective: apoplectic
overcome with anger; extremely indignant.
"Mainstream media is apoplectic with rage that Trump won the election."
Hard to say exactly. We only know part of what Trump says in private to foreign leaders, and even then it depends on what you mean.
Overall, the free press has, through the years, blabbed a lot more than the Golfer-in-Chief.
Unless you mean recently, and are trying to draw some dishonest false moral equivalence.
Are you trying to draw false moral equivalence here?
https://www.google.com/search?q=false+equivalence
Googled it for you.
Next question to dissemble on:
Does the president have a duty not to over our allies to their enemies?
Does the free press have a duty to withhold?
Are these duties equal in weight? Why or why not?
Sure.
What is the proper reaction for a dangerously ignorant person being president? Do tell.
Ignore the stupidity because they have a magic "R"? Got it, your preferred response. Magic "R" = no problem at all.
You mother ers deserve it, and I am not going to apologize for , asshole.
hy·per·ven·ti·late
/ˌhīpərˈven(t)əˌlāt/
verb
1. breathe or cause to breathe at an abnormally rapid rate, so increasing the rate of loss of carbon dioxide.
2. be or become overexcited.
"The MSM is hyperventilating in its coverage of Trump campaign's alleged ties to Russia."
its amusing to him.

By the way, did they ever catch those Russians that hacked the power grid (as reported by WaPo)?
Yesterday the MSM was so concerned that what Trump said could have revealed the source of the intel and millions of lives were at risk because it it.
Today the MSM revealed the source of the intel.
You keep expecting answers to your questions without answering the one's posed to you. I usually oblige but this is getting tiresome and is happening in every thread we converse in these days.
