As for being "immoral": I am not comfortable with the term but I do think it was a bit outrageous.

Fuck the constitution in that case - it's obviously shit. But doubt (and I mean no offence) that you have a clue on this.
Your "understanding" of what is and what is not a covert agent is irrelevant. It's not your or my business nor that of the general public.
It does not matter one toss whether it's a US CIA agent, some other govt officer or a law enforcement officer in a covert scenario - or whether it's the President of the US or the manager of McDonalds. It can be, and often is, *highly* risky to even indicate the possibility that an individual may be "not as it seems".
There is little doubt the President of the US has one single clue about the contacts an indivdual has had over her career and what may be harmful if known to *someone*. There are things people just don't talk about - or ask questions. It is clear you have no knowledge of either the dangers or the lengths to which folks go to protect situations - I do.
For the President of the US to come out with his slimebag and smear shit over one of the people working on behalf of the US in an attempt to "get at" her husband because he does not like his report - is the height of utter amateurism and shows how utterly stupid, warped and incompetent he actually is. Tho doubt he was alone in playing these pathetic party-political games.
I may be critical of "agencies" at times, but never would dream of "declaring up" an individual under risk - I got more respect than that and that's only me - for the US President to get into that swamp is extremely damning and says a lot about him.
