>why should she turn to America’s president for information?
Because he has the World's most powerful intelligence agencies behind him?
I know, children and propagandists will say "but, what about Iraq?" or some-such.
But most serious people know that we generally hear about the relative few intelligence failures versus the multitudes of successes, and that the U.S. and its allies unquestionably wield the World's foremost intel services.
And, here, we have the benefit of hindsight so we know unequivocally: our intelligence had it right and "she" would have done well to "turn to America's president for information".

It's not about the quality of intelligence - it's about the fact that US sources are known to lie when it benefits them, like they did with Iraq.

Turn to Putin for information then. Same outcome.
He does not run the world.
