Washington | President Donald Trump on Tuesday (Wednesday AEDT) downplayed the texting of sensitive plans for a military strike on Yemen to a group chat that included a journalist, saying it was “the only glitch in two months” of his administration.
As Democratic lawmakers heaped criticism on the administration for handling highly sensitive information carelessly, Trump said the lapse “turned out not to be a serious one” and expressed his continued support for national security adviser Mike Waltz.
