Do voters grasp the significance of Hillary Clintons e-mail scandal and her mishandling of classified information? One certainly does and he knows the Clintons all too well. James Woolsey served as CIA director under Bill Clinton during his first term, and he knows enough to tell the rest of us that Hillary Clinton cant be trusted with the nations security. In fact, hes joining Team Trump as an adviser for that reason:
She demonstrated a complete lack of understanding and an inability to lead the agency she headed in such a way as to maintain its mission and security, Woolsey said in a statement.
Based on the emails thus far released we know that Secretary Clinton also lacks the ability to lead her senior managers while complying with and maintaining the basic protocols designed to protect our governments sensitive and classified information. Mr. Trump understands the magnitude of the threats we face and is holding his cards close to the vest.
As Politicos Brianna Ehley points out, Trump isnt the first Republican Woolsey has endorsed. He also publicly supported John McCain in 2008, although his endorsement didnt have much impact. This is a different situation; Woolsey worked directly for Bill Clinton for two years, and presumably had some contact with Hillary Clinton. Despite that familiarity or maybe because of it? Woolsey has chosen the less-experienced Trump as the safer national-security bet.
Woolsey went on CNN to discuss his endorsement, and got a tough reception. In this interview, Woolsey focused more on Hillarys budget proposals than on the e-mail scandal:
Woolsey appeared on CNN shortly after the announcement, saying he joined the Trump campaign because he favors the Republican candidates defense budget proposal. Trump has proposed to lift the caps on defense spending. Woolsey also advised Republican John McCains presidential campaign.
He seems to be very much more so than his opponent in favor of a strong defense budget and we have got a lot of space to make up, problems that have been left in defense by the Obama administration, Woolsey said on CNN Monday, adding that Trump is more willing to keep classified information private.
He seems willing to keep a secret and not to blab everything to the public and our opponents. You cant go yakking about everything youre interested in. You have to keep your counsel, Woolsey said.
CNN hosts Kate Bolduan and John Berman tried to shake Woolsey by asking some odd questions about whether he likes Donald Trump, and suggested that Trump blabbed secrets by talking about the briefers body language. I wouldnt suggest body language is classified, Woolsey quipped. They then tried to pin Woolsey down on specific examples of Hillary blabbing, apparently unaware of the irony of that question in light of Hillarys e-mail server and her professed incomprehension of classifications and security protocols. Had they read Woolseys statement, they might have already had an answer to that question.
Whoa. This dude has some brass balls.
bttt
Indeed. Note how assiduously the Democrat dominated “news” media is not covering this story.
This was a great move in the Trump campaign...this guy knows where the bodies are buried and he does have a spine and balls...this is why the Clintons are very worried...
I just hope he has a lot of security around him all the time, and has a ‘food tester’ in his midst...
Or, his CIA experience allowed him to stash away some really good dirt to be released upon his demise --- and he has informed them about it....
right.
he has to have some sort of countermeasure in place.
otherwise, he’d have a “car accident” or a “boating accident” or “commit suicide in the park”.
2017 If Clinton is our Potus!
If Illiarily is elected, Huma will be running/ruining our country!
Yes he does...
Thank you James Woolsey. The neocons like Paul Wolfowitz are busy kissing Hillary’s boots.
Or,possibly a barbell will fall and crush his neck!
Someone who has ... demonstrated a complete lack of understanding and an inability to lead the agency she headed in such a way as to maintain its mission and security...
and who’s a mental epileptic, to boot. Kiss America good-bye.
Really.
we will have all out war....other countries that don't have her access will not stand idly by...
