You have it ass backwards. Trump was normal. The “national security establishment” was wrong. They used classification to conceal treason, sedition and their foreign collusion to cast Trump as a Russian asset. They used classification to hide their crimes in spying ON the White House.
They refused to agree that they are under the control of the executive branch and insist that THEY set policy.
They were not doing a damage assessment. It was a coverup to grab materials that Trump may have documenting their crimes. And it was also them making moves to damage the leader of the legitimate political opposition.
It is the job of the so called national security establishment to submit to the President, not for the President to follow THEIR ways.
The sources and methods being protected were the methods of sedition and treason.
The intel community has fallen into treason and suppression of dissent.
