The papers take a stand together this morning. The guy who led the OBL kill uses the WaPo to take a stand soon after. Something is happening.
A tweet storm would look so incredibly tiny and weak and lame now. I really hope he does it.
Especially pissing of the people with SIG INTāAlways a very bad move.
As I have noted at length, the SIG INT will get you every single time.
Thatās the kind of service member we can be proud of! (And heās not just a āretired admiral.ā He was head of Joint Special Ops Command, and managed the raid that got bin Laden. Heās the guy that many of us dreamed of being when we were kids. tRump, of course, dreamed of developing bone spurs.)
Those who have been praying for Trump to become a leader have been wasting their time and prayers. They should pray for world peace or to end hunger in the world instead . Theyād have no less a chance of getting their prayers answered if they did.
Cajones on Parade! Bravo!
His crapping on Hayden and Clapper alone must be creating a turmoil.
I donāt disagree, but keep in mind that the key qualifier here is retired Admiral.
I appears all those lessons learned from Dale Carnegie is paying off in spades for Mr. Twitler.
If he prayed trump would become a decent leader because he supported trump before the election, heās still got some explaining to do.
I would imagine that there is a Mount Everest of damning information on Trump, et.al., yearning to be, uh, free. When it happens, Trumpanistas heads will uniformly explode.
Wasnnāt quite sure ā¦ For everyone else of the non Military persuasion
It = Youāre Fucked
Hopefully, his sentiments go right to the heart and soul of every elected Republican in the country!
As well as his heroic ordeal surviving the nationās vaginal landmines which was his personal Vietnam and merits the Congressional Medal of Honor.

Wellā¦
Just think for a minute. All the shit this āpresidentā has done, and this is the straw that broke this guyās camel?
While I appreciate the thought, take a few minutes and recall everything that DIDNāT get Admiral McRaven to write this letter.
Iām not questioning the Admiralās bravery, but I am questioning his courage.
When did he retire?
With this president anybody WITH a security clearance will soon be suspect. People will be giving them back voluntarily.
This is the guy who led the team that killed Bin Laden and is regarded as a black ops expert. Unlike Trump, heās no joke.
Admiral McRaven, of course, worked very closely with Brennan, including on a particular operation while, uh, some other guy was President.
@pshah: Beat me by seconds.
I like the cut of this Admiralās jib.
