The Trump impact on US policy

[Azor]

You are missing the point. Here is a Trump Tweet from today:

"Intelligence agencies should never have allowed this fake news to "leak" into the public. One last shot at me. Are we living in Nazi Germany?"

Trump sees this as a personal attack on him by the U.S. Intelligence Community!

So how do you expect Trump will receive word from his intelligence agencies that the Russians have little green men in Estonia or that they are secretly moving troops into Latvia? From here on out, the Russians will have a free hand in Eastern Europe.

Considering that the current and former CIA Directors going back a number of years endorsed Hillary Clinton, along with various CIA officers and Republican members of the national security community, Trump may well have a point.

It is clear that people were hoping that Hillary would allow for more CIA intervention in Syria and Ukraine...
