If they missed one of the biggest political crimes in the history of our nation, that is very bad.

It's not like all of a sudden Trump became a ruthless sociopath.
They had to know he what he was capable of doing to stay in power.

If they knew what was coming and didn't care or agreed with the crimes being committed that is also very bad.

So intelligence services are either incompetent or corrupt.
