hi tkc,
i see what you mean. but i think these folks are also probably sincere in thinking that trump is no commander-in-chief.
his inadequacy for the role is hard to miss. in your life, have you ever met someone you would less like to make a decision about launching a nuke? i haven't. okay, maybe some schizophrenic folks. but no sane person. not one.
so if i am gates or powell or anyone who was responsible for national security, it's an obvious call. an absolute no.
