Agreed.
Trump would look like the biggest hypocrite in the world if he picked Petreus. Spent a year beating up a former SOS for mishandling classified emails, then chooses for his SOS a person convicted of mishandling classified intel??
I hope this is just a rumor.
Mitt isn’t good but he would be the better political choice by far. And if Trump feels like he can trust him, maybe Mitt could be a solid SOS.
The real problem with Hillary's private email server is not that it wasn't secure, although that alone was felonious on its face.
The real reason Hillary used a private server was not that she didn't want to carry two Blackberries. It was that she didn't want her emails to be subject to to the Federal Records Act and the Freedom of Information Act. Because, then, the people might have discovered her corrupt dealings involving the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative!
No, the truth is, Hillary and Bill have become centimillionaires, not by building hotels people want to stay in or by making reality TV shows people want to watch, but by selling future access to the head of the US government!
As for Petraeus, he won the Iraq War. Only to see Zero piss it away.
Petraeus did illegally share classified info with his West Point graduate biographer, whom he was boinking under his desk. That was wrong. But how does it compare to what Hillary and Bill were doing?
Petraeus would make a fine Secretary of State.
