Trump just became even more of a national security threat: ethics group

Raw Story  

In a press release published this Thursday, the watchdog group Citizens for Responsible Ethics in Washington said the mounting civil judgements against Donald Trump make him even more of a threat to national security than he already was. Bloomberg reports that Trump’s lenders, “would hold collateral that could include cash, real estate and other assets, while charging the debtor a fee of about 2%” and then charge Trump an additional nearly $5 million a year while he appeals the verdict, which CREW says is a "process that could take years and eat up even more of his dwindling cash on hand." CREW goes on to say that Trump was always a threat to national security "because he viewed the office of the president as one of self-service rather than public service." "And his first impeachment revolved around Trump’s use of national security aid to Ukraine as leverage for dirt on his political opponent," CREW's press release stated. "Even after leaving office, Trump reportedly shared classified nuclear submarine information with an Australian billionaire who only became a Mar-a-Lago member to ingratiate himself with the American president, paying generously to attend galas Trump would attend, while in private saying Trump does business 'like the mafia.'"
