Krauthammer: It’s Not a Leak Problem, ‘It’s a Loyalty Problem Inside the W.H.’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

ROSEN: "I will not lean into you with a negative construction like that again. On the post story about the Russian probe, Sean Spicer said... There was no collusion between the campaign and any foreign entity. On this panel just a few days ago, Charles, you call this a scandal in search of a crime. To still still hold that position? Asserting that there is somebody very high up in the White House right now who is a person of interest in the investigation, are you disturbed by that?"
KRUATHAMMER: "Are you accusing me too, here? No. It doesn’t mean someone did something wrong. I think they are protecting too much. Spicer’s protest that the real issue here is with the Russians, or trump talking to the Russians Russians, but this is an issue of a leak. And this is inadvertently self indicting. After all, the idea that journalists are going to receive leaks — it is a constant. Journalists are always ready to pick up the phone. If he is saying we have a real problem here with leaks, what we are talking about — what’s unusual is the niagara of leaks coming out of this White House. As you said, this had to have been somebody in the room. Somebody who took the notes. Who picked up the phone and read the notes. The problem here is an inner circle of people who have lost faith or betrayed or whatever. It is certainly not a leak problem that ought to interest us. It’s a loyalty problem inside the White House."
