ABC News reported on Thursday that ex-president Donald Trump had shared nuclear secrets with a billionaire at his golf club, and experts were quick to react to how the report could affect Trump's current criminal case on classified document handling.
Trump, who has denied all wrongdoing in the Florida case brought by special counsel Jack Smith, has already weathered numerous reports about his purported sharing of confidential information. In this case, Trump is accused of sharing secret U.S. nuclear submarine details with a foreign national.
Reporter Molly Jong-Fast had a simple reply to the breaking news. "GOP front runner," she wrote Thursday.
Conservative lawyer and anti-Trump activist George Conway had this to say:
"Everyone who has accused P01135809 of selling the nation’s secrets should profusely apologize. Out of innate charity, he gives them away for free," he wrote Thursday.
"Disclosure of classified/secret/ts/sci information is a crime, too, I believer. Where are my #natsec folks?" he wrote.
Former FBI agent Asha Rangappa had a unique take on the situation:
"Just a reminder that Trump had multiple meetings with Putin with no other American officials present. I’m sure it was fine though," she wrote Thursday.
CNN anchor Jim Sciutto said, "There is no more sensitive intelligence to the U.S., Russia and China today than that relating to submarine capabilities and detection."
Author and journalist David Rothkopf wrote on his social media that "For sure this is the tip of the iceberg of this sort of thing. He didn't keep all those classified docs because his inner archivist demanded it. It was because he saw value in them...and the value came from sharing the information with people who shouldn't have it."
