Trump seeks identity of person who leaked information to whistleblower
Likening them to a spy, President Trump said Thursday that he would like to learn the identity of the person or persons in the government who provided a federal whistleblower with information that set in motion the inquiry that could lead to his impeachment.
The Los Angeles Times released audio Thursday of Trump musing over the source of the content of his call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on which the whistleblower, in part, based his complaint.
“Basically, that person never saw the report, never saw the call. He never saw the call — heard something and decided that he or she or whoever the hell it is — they’re almost a spy,” Trump said in a recording of a private event on Thursday in New York. “I want to know who’s the person who gave the whistleblower, who’s the person who gave the whistleblower the information? Because that’s close to a spy. You know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart, right? The spies and treason, we used to handle it a little differently than we do now.”
After learning of Trump’s remarks, former Vice President Joe Biden, who Trump asked Zelensky to investigate, took the president’s comments as a death threat.

it's a death threat!
All they could say about Biden's statement was that he took Donnie's comments as a death threat. As if that's merely the opinion of an opposition politician.
And as if Biden didn't also support the whistleblower for defending the constitution! And condemn Donnie's actions!
No, apparently the only thing Biden adds to the story is to turn an objective statement (Donnie made a death threat) into a partisan opinion (partisan democrat says Donnie made a death threat).
