sensitive that involved the security of the united states we can send it right to the white house. it went to the situation room and landed on the president's desk by law. so for the pentagon or cyber command here whoever kept this away from the president is stunning. truly, it is. >> what does it tell you that they would make such a move and keep president trump intentionally in the dark about details of what they were doing aggressively against russia? >> erin, they don't trust him. it's as simply as that. he talks about operations in maur l mar-a-lago. and on and on and on. if you if have anything to do with russia in the government whether the fbi or pentagon, it's self defensive to keep it out of the president's hands. >> so if he knew details about these attacks and shared them, which, of course, he didn't know the details. i'm remembering back to remember the sensitive operation in syria
