B. Trump’s cabinet is incompetent
C. Trump’s a traitor
D. All of the above.

“Facing strong criticism from Democrats, Trump said on Twitter that neither he nor Vice President Mike Pence had been briefed on the classified assessment. Trump also tried to cast doubt on a New York Times report that said he had been told about the matter.”
