A binder containing highly classified information related to Russian election interference went missing at the end of Donald Trump’s presidency, raising alarms among intelligence officials.
I don’t think it was an issue of “trust”. I think we (those of us living in this reality) all know this, but it is moreso that he was bending to his master’s will rather than let a US agency sway his actions. Especially if it is counter to his master’s wishes. I am sure he knew that information was correct, but he needed to bury it.
Just to elaborate on Helsinki, he literally trusted Putin’s word over his own intelligence agency (about 2016 election interference from Russia)

To be fair, Trump trust is based on favors, and the intelligence agencies weren’t doing him any.
