Trump's Nuclear Comments at Town Hall Spark Legal Concerns

Experts question if former president unlawfully disclosed classified nuclear information during Fox News appearance.

Donald Trump's comments during a Fox News town hall have sparked concerns among experts over whether he disclosed classified information about the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
Several national security attorneys are questioning if Trump's remarks about a nuclear weapon capable of destroying New York and South Carolina constitute an unlawful disclosure of classified information.
Experts note that Trump, even as a former president, would not have the authority to declassify information related to nuclear capabilities without authorization from the Secretary of Energy.
The incident has raised eyebrows on social media, with many questioning the accuracy of Trump's statements regarding the destructive capacity of nuclear weapons.
This is not the first time Trump has been accused of sharing classified information; his history includes a notable incident with Russian officials in the Oval Office.
