general and director of national intelligence says trump is putin's USEFUL IDIOT
- Thread starter dherd
- Start date
Fifty of the nation’s most senior Republican national security officials, many of them former top aides or cabinet members for President George W. Bush, have signed a letter declaring that Donald J. Trump “lacks the character, values and experience” to be president and “would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being.”
Mr. Trump, the officials warn, “would be the most reckless president in American history.”
The letter says Mr. Trump would weaken the United States’ moral authority and questions his knowledge of and belief in the Constitution. It says he has “demonstrated repeatedly that he has little understanding” of the nation’s “vital national interests, its complex diplomatic challenges, its indispensable alliances and the democratic values” on which American policy should be based. And it laments that “Mr. Trump has shown no interest in educating himself.”
LOOKS LIKE A PERFECT ASSESSMENT - YOU CONS REALLY KNOW HOW TO PICK'EM

Members of Congress should know better than to ask such questions in open hearings, especially ones sitting on the SSCI. The time to ask such questions was during debate of passage of the Patriot Act, and not after when shit was SCI/IN-SAP level. Clapper was a lot more polite by being "untruthful" than I would have been.
