Mistake, Perry is another one of those who believe Islam is a religion of peace.

The reason Texas has more muslims than most states is because Perry and Bush were so welcoming.

I think he will be an able administrator; just don’t let him make policy and especially, DON’T LET HIM EVER talk to the press or speak on public platforms. He goes air-skulled in those scenes.

Perry would make good in that position...

Bannon was there to keep an eye on Flynn, after Flynn was let go, Bannon didn’t attend, his job was done...

Course the left alt media can’t see that...

Remember President Trump fired Flynn on ‘trust issues’ and that could include a lot of things...and why did Flynn want ‘protection’ if he testified...if you have nothing to hide, you just say what it is you have to say...let the chips fall where they may...

Does he know ANYTHING about national security?

I mean, maybe he does. But you sure can’t find it in his resume.

Rick approved my commission in the Texas State Guard. I sorta like his way of taking care of Coyotes. He’ll do the right thing, now that he knows what the Department of Energy does.

Flynn failed to disclose that he had been lobbying for Turkey. That’s a fairly significant omission.

Old Slick “15 foot ladder” Perry. As sharp as overcooked pasta.

I’m a happy camper. Rick Perry is a real, true bonafide American with generations of family in Texas. Military background, too and proven leader.

Well, Rick was one of the first of those who dropped out to endorse Trump.

Agreed. Perry has McMaster’s religion of peace attitude. They are both a mistake, though Perry is probably a dim enough bulb to at least do less damage.

"The reason Texas has more muslims than most states is because Perry and Bush were so welcoming."

Complete BS. Recent estimates show 421,000 Muslims in Texas, 740,000 to 1,000,000 in New York City alone.
