Because the phones you insist upon using are not secure. You are told that. Repeatedly. You continue to use those phones and call those pals to shoot the breeze. The info the foreign governments learn is fed back to the trusted friends of the prez by China's operatives to the people you chat with via those they know and they know a lot of people. A couple of the prez friends he calls all the time are Steve Wynn and Steve Scharzman. So when you chat with them they may tell you about certain things that are just what China wants you to accept from "trusted" friends and it all serves the interests of the Chinese. So some WH unnamed sources leaked that to the New York Times hoping that will get the attention of the prez and he will STOP using those phones. Because he knows all about it and refuses to do anything about it. Maybe now he will?
