http://www.rawstory.com/2016/07/ex-cia-chief-questions-trumps-loyalty-to-the-us-after-asking-russia-to-help-him-win-election/Donald Trump sparked outrage on Wednesday when he encouraged the Russian government to find and leak Hillary Clintons emails that were deleted from her private server while she served as Secretary of State.
Now former CIA chief Leon Panetta has told CNNs Christiane Amanpour that Trumps actions call his loyalty to the U.S. into question. Whats more, Amanpour says Panetta claims Trumps statements raise questions over whether hes conspiring with a foreign power.
You have a presidential candidate who is, in fact, asking the Russians to engage in American politics, Panetta said. I think thats beyond the pale he is truly not qualified to be president of the United States.

He has no business even thinking about running for the office. So now we are finding out who put him up to it and who is enabling him.
