Unit2Sucks said:If this were true, wouldn't Trump's disclosure be a major breach of classified information? I know Trump and his acolytes like to claim that just by pretending to have thought about something during his presidency he can declassify, but here we are 2+ years after he left office and no one can seriously think that it's okay for him to release classified information when he believes it suits him politically.MinotStateBeav said:

As I said during the but her emails fake scandal and for years after, there was no doubt in my mind that Trump would be the worst steward of our nation's secrets than any other president in history. Despite his many claims "you know what we used to do with spies" and his tough talk about cracking down on people who misuse classified information, he has proven himself to be every bit as bad as I suspected. He has taken hundreds of classified docs, refused to give them back and even recently still had a laptop full of classified materials. If what he is saying is true, this would probably be the most egregious breach yet of classified information.
I don't know whether the US was involved in Maidan or not. I know US people (Manafort specifically) was involved in helping Russia install their puppet government led by Yanukovich which is what led to Maidan. Yanukovich was part of the massively corrupt Ukrainian regime (with corruption a natural part of any Russian puppet state) and that he was elected in part because he promised to improve relations with the EU and West but in reality he was a Russian stooge installed by oligarchs to do Putin's bidding. I also know that the Russian shills love to talk about Maidan and never want to talk about the fact that Yanukovich was a puppet for Putin who is currently still in exile in Russia.
Of course there is always the possibility that he's full of sh(t. I mean after all he lies about everything. Honestly before this claim I would have assumed we were involve in Maidan and now I'm not so sure. But if it's true, he should be prosecuted and punished to the full extent of the law.
Not sure if you actually watched the video, but in it Trump doesn't say anything about Maidan that hasn't been said a thousand times in the Russia-fan Twitter accounts we constantly see posted here: NATO backed, Victoria Nuland, blah blah. He provides no specifics or indication that this is based on classified documents. I'd wager he literally did read it on Twitter and that's all the knowledge he has on the matter.
