Politics Trump wanted to shut down all embassies in Africa

I can't believe Obama forced Trump to hire Esper. Bastard!

 

First he's ̶b̶l̶a̶c̶k̶ er...born in Kenya, and now this?

 

Furious Trump wanted to recall retired military officials including Stanley McChrystal to active duty so he could court-martial them for being 'so disloyal,' Mark Esper says

• Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper said former President Donald Trump wanted to recall retired Gen. Stanley McChrystal and Adm. William McRaven
• Trump floated a plot to Esper and the Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley to recall McChrystal and McRaven to start court-martial proceedings
• The former president was 'spun' up over a Breitbart report that said McChrystal was using DARPA-developed software to go after Trump supporters online
• Trump was also angered by McRaven's anti-Trump statements, including a 2019 op-ed he wrote for The New York Times

Trump was the 'biggest leaker of all' in his administration and it was 'generally bad' for the country, his former Pentagon chief says

• Trump was the "biggest leaker" in his administration, according to former Defense Secretary Mark Esper.
• "Leaks were a chronic problem" in the Trump administration, Esper wrote in his new book.
• "It turned colleague against colleague" and it was "generally bad" for the country, he said.

Former Defense Secretary Mark Esper in his new book said that "leaks were a chronic problem" in the Trump administration and former President Donald Trump was the "biggest leaker of all."

"The individual motivations for the leaks ranged from advancing a preferred policy outcome to enhancing the leaker's own role or credentials to currying favor with the president. It was a noxious behavior learned from the top. The president was the biggest leaker of all. It turned colleague against colleague, department against department, and it was generally bad for the administration and the country," Esper wrote in "A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times."

Esper said the leaks "damaged trust" and made people "far more reluctant to speak up and share their views."

"Nobody wanted to see their name in the morning news, especially when the words were so often twisted, misinterpreted, and taken out of context," he added. "In the Trump administration, this could get you blacklisted or fired."

He was wondering because he wanted to be able to show off his new found power of diverting hurricane paths with sharpies.

 

One the one hand I don't doubt that Trump was an ill-prepared, total nincompoop when it comes to running anything, I find it incredibly convenient that these knuckleheads didn't do anything at the time shit happens, but are more than willing to talk about it once they get their book deals.

 

I meant in the sense of going public.

 

That one's that spoke up got ostracized by Trump and Maga.

 

they'll get ostracized by them now, but at least it would be something that doesn't appear to be directly related to propping your book sales.

 

But, now they don't have a career /position to lose

 

Which proves my point. They weren't that concerned because they were financially benefiting.

 

I don't know where else to post this but apparently, @MARIS61 has been writing children's stories.
