Trump didn't have the legendary opsec he's supposed to have.


Legendary where? His Twitter password was guessed[1].

Even worse, he used that password across several more services and didn't change them when his Twitter account was compromised. Legendarily bad, perhaps.

It's a joke.

Trump once claimed that he understood technology better than anyone.

And security.

And the proper way to milk a cow (probably).

Depending on the subject, he's the world's greatest expert, even if he can't spell the subject's name.


No one ever thought Trump himself had good opsec.

(Well, barring the QAnon folks.)

His opsec has traditionally leaned more towards the "how did they recognize me with this moustache on?" realm. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/donald-trump-alter-e...
