Donald Trump's continued praise of Vladimir Putin is fueling alarm among former intelligence officials, who fear another Trump term would benefit Moscow and harm US democracy and interests overseas. Experts worry Trump would gut US intelligence by appointing far-right loyalists. They say this could damage ties with key allies by reducing intelligence sharing, and his authoritarian tendencies and support for Putin are seen as undermining US security. Experts fear a politicized intelligence community and weakened sharing with partners like the UK and France if Trump wins again.
