Does it bother anybody that military personnel say Trump is unfit?
This is the thing I've never figured out. We've gone so far down the culture rabbit hole that nobody even cares any more that Trump is one gigantic national security risk unlike any president before him. Seriously, if you're voting for Trump tell me why you're ok with the guy who gave Trump his daily intelligence briefing saying this about him.
"I have briefed him up close — and I have seen and felt the effect of his faults on our nation’s security. Out of respect for the confidential nature of Oval Office conversations, I will not provide details. Suffice to say that the person you see presiding over COVID-19 press conferences is the same one in the privacy of his office. He has little patience for facts or data that do not comport with his personal world view. Thus, the conversations are erratic and less than fully thoughtful.
While it is natural for there to be tension between the intelligence community and senior policymakers, President Donald Trump’s decision to rely upon the word of dictators like Vladimir Putin is an unprecedented betrayal of his oath to the Constitution. Our current president bases his decisions on his instincts, and his instincts are based upon a personal value proposition — what’s in it for me?"
