In 1990, famed gossip columnist Liz Smith had been asking Donald Trump for two years to comment on the “other woman” in his life, only to be stonewalled each time about the identity of Marla Maples.

Two years of keeping a secret about the bombshell blonde with whom he was sleeping.
Three weeks of hiding said mistress in another country using an alias and a disguise.
And within five months of assuming office Donald Trump is sharing information about a valuable source within the ISIS network with two Russian officials to whom he claims not to owe any special allegiances.

Now remember that this is how he views national security intelligence.
