Before the Nov 2022 Free Republic’s resident neocons will be actively disparaging Donald Trump.

It’s what all their heroes do and they won’t be able to help themselves.

I guess he’s right in that the Democrats would devote the FBI, DoJ, and the entire Intelligence Community to attacking Trump instead of defending the USA.

While nationalism may be a real thing Mr. Gates, prove that it is based solely upon race. You can't because it isn't. Hispanics are coming to the Republican Party in droves, and blacks are starting their migration to the Republican Party also. This would not be the case if it were based solely upon race. You are a liar and a scumbag deep state supporter.

You are correct though, their are many politicians on both sides of the aisle that care only about their retention of positions of power, insider information that gives them access to increase their wealth. They indeed do not care about, "We The People".

In reality it is Azz-Clowns like yourself who are the real threat to national security.

Chinese national security, perhaps.

Robert Gates is a waste of oxygen.

Wasn’t he the guy who pushed for adult homosexuals as boy scout “leaders?”

Yeah, send an adult male homosexual into the woods with a teenage boy.

What could possibly go wrong?

Did this guy apologize for repeating Hillary Clinton’s lie about Trump and Putin:

“his [Trump’s] embrace of Russian strongman Vladimir Putin”, Gates, 9/17/2016

I don’t recall Gate warning Biden is a National Security Risk, given his OPEN BORDERS policy and his eagerness to antagonize world Nuclear Powers....

If by “national security concern” he means disrupting the Beltway money laundering and pay to play influence peddling while they systematically destroy our country, then yes I would say they should have concerns.

Robert Gates, the former Defense Secretary under both the Bush and Obama administrations, said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that former President Donald Trump running for office would present a “concern” for national security.

How so, d*ckhead?!

Robert Gates is darn near as evil as Bill.

I wonder if they are related by blood, as well as by ideology.

Why are msm news outlets allowed to broadcast their cognitive dissonance on a government issued broadcast license ?
I sure there is something in the written agreement that doesn’t allow disinformation.

The Biden’s are bought off by China and Russia.
They are for Iran getting nukes.

Fentanyl is killing tens of thousands of Americans
and illegals by the millions have eliminated our
safety yet Gates talks of Trump who had the least
drugs and illegals in history.

We still have American hostages in Afghanistan.

Putin would not have attacked Ukraine with Trump
in office.

Biden makes us feels like we need to get a gun
to protect us. The domestic crime wave is soaring.

This is just political slander masquerading as information. Gates never says what about Trump represents a “national security concern” because he can’t. He just hopes to put enough fear in people’s weak minds to maintain the deep state’s control of the levers of power.

The biggest threat to our national security is the incompetent and “elite captured” President* Biden. If all legitimate power emanates from the consent of the governed, I think we have a big problem.

That this guy was hired by bush and stayed through obama makes a powerful and negative statement about all three!
