Donald Trump won't give up his iPhone: Who's he talking to, and who's listening?

I'm sure most Americans woke up on Thursday and were startled to find that President Trump had been unable to maintain even the tepid level of concern he'd shown the night before about the attempted assassination of important figures on his enemies list. No, what got Trump out of his temporary "nice" mode was a story in the New York Times on Wednesday night reporting that the U.S. intelligence community was beside itself because Trump was still gabbing on his unsecured iPhone and they had proof that Chinese and Russian government agents were listening in. One can't help but also wonder if Trump ever discusses his own business interests when he's chatting on the phone. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of that report is the fact that the Russian government is also spying on the president but according to the Times the Russians haven't put as much effort into it, because of Trump's warm relationship with Vladimir Putin. Theresa Payton, who was George W. Bush's chief White House information officer and is now CEO of a security firm, told Fast Company, “If true, this may be the largest, most significant breach of White House communications in history.” I'm sure Trump will be thrilled to hear it.
