Trump admin's 'sloppy' Signal leak put Democrats back on offense, Sen Warner says

The Trump administration's Signal group chat leak was a "sloppy" move that put Democrats on offense for the first time since President Donald Trump's inauguration, Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., said Sunday.

Warner made the statement during an appearance on "Fox News Sunday," telling host Shannon Bream that it is an insult to the American people for Trump officials to claim the information discussed in the group chat wasn't classified.

"This was so inappropriate. This was so sloppy. You know, Signal [is] fine, but don't put classified information. If this had been any military officer or intelligence officer and they'd done that, they'd be fired," Warner said.

Warner fell short of stating that the information in the group chat made it "criminal," as his colleague Sen. Richard Blumenthal has claimed.
