I guess the question is whether classifying what he did as a leak or a declassification matters beyond dry legal matters internally in the US. At the end of the day if what he did means that our allies will be reluctant to share intelligence with us then it also means that 45 may ultimately be responsible for lots of dead americans at some point in the future. I happen to remember the last president that didn't think intelligence mattered and almost 3,000 americans died because of his casual attitude about intelligence.
