What did Trump admit to?

Mr. Trump’s tweets on Tuesday morning appeared to undercut the carefully worded statements made by his advisers on Monday night that attempted to dispute the original story without taking issue with specific facts in it. Secretary of State Rex W. Tillerson said in a statement that the president “did not discuss sources, methods or military operations” with the Russians. Mr. Trump’s national security adviser, H. R. McMaster, likewise told reporters that Mr. Trump had not disclosed intelligence methods or sources.


But The Washington Post and the other news organizations did not report that he had done so. Instead, they focused on the breach of espionage etiquette, the possibility that American allies might be discouraged from sharing intelligence with the United States, and Mr. Trump’s tendency to go off-script, at times to the chagrin of his advisers.

Mr. McMaster told reporters on Monday that The Post’s account “as reported” was “false,” but in his tweets on Tuesday morning, Mr. Trump made no such assertion and instead sought to justify what he had done.
