Should Trump consult with the Kremlin and Julian Assange on intelligence and security matters?

Trump has shown more faith in Putin and Assange than his own nation's intelligence agencies, FBI and CIA. In the future, as President of U.S., instead of consulting with the CIA, FBI and NSA, should he confer with Putin and Assange. Putin is an ex-KGB colonel. He is a cold war warrior whose previous job was espionage and propaganda. Julian Assange has sought refugee in the Ecuador Embassy in London for the past 4 1/2 years. Why? Because he is wanted on 4 separate charges of sexual assault and rape. The London police has been ordered to take Assange into custody should he leave the embassy. While denying these charges, Assange has expressed his fear that the British government would extradite him to the United States to stand trial for the illegal procurement and release of top secret U.S. intelligence files. He has repeatedly expressed his disdain for the U.S. government. He is a very bitter man who blames the U.S. government for forcing him into hiding. It is just sad that any American, let alone the President of the United States, would place his faith on these 2 individuals over his or her own nation's intelligence agencies.

    Trump calls out the heavily politicized CIA for blatantly lying, and you take that as evidence that he's a Russian plant?

    Good god you people are fvcking stupid.

    It would be safer than consulting with a democrat.

    I would not trust the CIA to walk my dog. Do you realize they've made drug deals before?
