Has Trump made us less safe?

Last edited Mon Dec 11, 2017, 08:26 PM - Edit history (1)

Trump has attacked the FBI, CIA, and the "intelligence community." I have to wonder if Trumps attacks on American law enforcement and intelligence has contributed to the increase in successful terrorist attacks. Has he demoralized first responders with his attacks? Are the agencies properly staffed with qualified people (not political hacks like Ezra Cohen-Watnick)?
