President Trump has decided not to declassify the Democratic rebuttal memo yet, though the White House says he’s “inclined” to, and Twitter had a field day.

Some Democrats were pretty critical of Trump’s decision, especially top House Intel Democrat Adam Schiff:

After ignoring urging of FBI & DOJ not to release misleading Nunes memo because it omits material facts, @POTUS now expresses concerns over sharing precisely those facts with public and seeks to send it back to the same Majority that produced the flawed Nunes memo to begin with: pic.twitter.com/qNVyS99eXs — Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) February 10, 2018

Refusal to release Democratic response to #NunesMemo – evidence of obstruction of justice by Donald Trump happening in real time. — Richard Blumenthal (@SenBlumenthal) February 10, 2018

.@realDonaldTrump’s double standard when it comes to transparency is appalling. The rationale for releasing the #NunesMemo, transparency, vanishes when it could show information that’s harmful to him. Millions of Americans are asking one simple question: what is he hiding? — Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) February 10, 2018

This move by @realDonaldTrump confirms what we have all known for weeks — that his decision to release the #NunesMemo was a blatantly political move made without concern for national security. The hypocrisy is on full display. What does the President have to hide? — Nancy Pelosi (@NancyPelosi) February 10, 2018

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. Both GOP & Dems voted to release Dem memo. I read it and am convinced @realDonaldTrump is now intentionally hiding relevant information from the American people in order to mislead the public. An innocent person would not block the memo.#ReleaseTheDemMemo https://t.co/f2bCtid8DQ — Ted Lieu (@tedlieu) February 10, 2018

#BREAKING: Trump just blocked the #DemocraticMemo that sets record straight on @HouseGOP attempt to undermine #TrumpRussia probe. Americans deserve the truth and this only raises more red flags. RT to demand Trump #ReleaseTheMemo.https://t.co/NzLvYVe38u — Jim McGovern (@RepMcGovern) February 10, 2018

Donald Trump will not declassify the Democratic memo. In response, @RepSwalwell says the only way to "make sure that the FBI's reputation is not unfairly tainted is to give the American people the full picture." https://t.co/cjd2JqvB0S pic.twitter.com/bF7aAjBEzH — OutFrontCNN (@OutFrontCNN) February 10, 2018

Even one Republican congressman, Justin Amash, said he thinks the Democrats’ memo should be released just as the initial one was:

Both the Republican and Democratic #FISA memos should be released. I’ve read both memos. Neither one endangers national security. The American people deserve the opportunity to read both memos. — Justin Amash (@justinamash) February 10, 2018

A lot of other people had critical thoughts too:

Reminder as Trump says he's unable to declassify the Dems' memo: DOJ publicly expressed "grave concern" over the Nunes memo and Trump released it anyway. DOJ has not expressed concern, at least not publicly, over the Dems' memo. — Natasha Bertrand (@NatashaBertrand) February 10, 2018

Nobody* could have predicted that the White House would block the Democratic memo that was intended to provide honest context the Nunes memo dishonestly omitted. *Everybody — Wil 'Ban the Nazis' Wheaton (@wilw) February 10, 2018

Trump claims the memo is just under audit. https://t.co/ZyIoEcvqxL — Jesse Ferguson (@JesseFFerguson) February 10, 2018

.@realDonaldTrump Is terrified to #ReleaseTheMemo of the Democrats because he's terrified of the truth being revealed. — Patricia Arquette (@PattyArquette) February 10, 2018

Friday night. He blocks the memo laying out how full of shit the GOP shills are. And still no sanctions on Russia. https://t.co/SVkwp4KTlA — Chris Sacca (@sacca) February 10, 2018

I hate the games both sides are playing with these memos, but Trump releasing the Nunes memo over the objections of the FBI/Justice Dept while blocking the Schiff one will certainly raise some eyebrows. https://t.co/8PwrVou2XG — Josh Jordan (@NumbersMuncher) February 10, 2018

Imagine my overwhelming surprise that Trump is blocking the release of the Democrats’ memo. — Charles Johnson (@Green_Footballs) February 10, 2018
