"President Donald Trump has upended America’s digital defenses by firing the four-star general who led the National Security Agency, shrinking cybersecurity agencies and slashing election cybersecurity initiatives."

"At a time when national security and cybersecurity experts say the U.S. should be bolstering its defenses, Trump has called for reductions in staffing and other changes to the agencies that protect American interests in cyberspace.
For example, Trump recently fired Gen. Timothy Haugh, who oversaw the NSA and the Pentagon’s Cyber Command."

"The U.S. faces “unprecedented cyber threats,” said Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee. He has asked the White House to explain Haugh’s departure. “How does firing him make Americans any safer?" Warner said."

Donald should not be carrying out personal vendettas against Democrats when it comes to national security.

We are less safe with Donald as president.

Donald is immature. He is not fit to be president.

Maga has made a huge mistake in electing him.

Donald is hurting our nation, and placing us at greater risk.

Perhaps Warner should explain how our country's entire digital defense is totally dependent upon one General...one man. Is that one General the ONLY person who is capable of ensuring our digital defense?

This is a good thing. All countries should be concerned with their own digital defense.

You need to show where he said that.

This is what he said:

"...Trump has called for reductions in staffing..."

Looks like you have it entirely backwards.

Always the rule, and never the exception, in Mycroft's case. It stems, at least in part, from being so desperate to have the first defensive post after any comment that exposes Trump's endless and ongoing failures. Knee-jerk reflexes don't have time to read or analyze content before commenting.
