Signalgate is a window into the administration’s approach to policy issues, but it mostly makes clear that these are stupid, reckless people pursuing stupid, reckless policies.

If they are so dismissive of the gravity of the signal incident, how casual will they be going forward...especially since it seems there will be no accountability
And they will repeat recklessly.
The absence of punishment encourages higher risk taking.
Mostly this will be evident in public commentaries that alienate the MAGA base.
Vance is already there. Hegseth has already taken to spouse to sensitive briefings. As for Kennedy... boom soon, maybe measles.
Shampoo, rinse and repeat... Trump says the US will assist Myanmar with its earthquake response. How many fired USAID personnel will need to be reinstated? Incompetence is as incompetence does. ✌️
IT'S ALSO A WINDOW INTO TRUMP'S PEE BRAIN..! TOTALLY
INCOMPETENT, UNPROFESSIONALS, RACIST, WHITE NATIONALIST, WANNABE DICTATOR, UNFIT TO DO THEIR JOBS, RECKLESS
AND TOTALLY UNQUALIFIED PIECES OF GARBAGE..!
HOW ABOUT THAT..!
You have to have self awareness in order to be capable of being embarrassed. Remember that idiot bully in junior high who beat people up and stole their lunch money? Meet the Trump cabinet. Same guys. Never saw him in the library either, did you? Naw. Books are for burning.
It's called a Kleptocracy. The US has been an oligarchy before Millennials were even born, and oligarchies always move into a combination of fascism, kleptocracy, kakistocracy, before ultimately failing if world history has been any indicator. You cannot satisfy the morally bankrupt rich.
Not entirely. They're using Signal for the same reason other criminals use Signal - to avoid leaving evidence of their malfeasance. If they were reckless and stupid, they wouldn't be using Signal.
"Stupid and reckless" was inviting a reporter to witness their lack of concern for operational integrity. Everyone I know who's been in the counter-intel game have described it as nothing less than a stunning example of reckless stupidity.
