Trump échoue le test de commandant en chef


Trump peut-il sérieusement prétendre diriger adéquatement les militaires? Connaît-il les rouages du système et les limites du pouvoir présidentiel? Rien de bien rassurant dans ce qu'il affirmé hier soir.

 "Trump repeatedly insulted the military. (“I think under the leadership of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, the generals have been reduced to rubble. They have been reduced to a point where it’s embarrassing for our country.”) A moment later he declared, “I have great faith in the military. I have great faith in certain of the commanders, certainly.” Hmm.

He repeated his nonsensical position that we should take Iraq’s oil:

Just we would leave a certain group behind and you would take various sections where they have the oil. They have — people don’t know this about Iraq, but they have among the largest oil reserves in the world, in the entire world.

And we’re the only ones, we go in, we spend $3 trillion, we lose thousands and thousands of lives, and then, Matt, what happens is, we get nothing. You know, it used to be to the victor belong the spoils. Now, there was no victor there, believe me. There was no victor. But I always said: Take the oil.

Who are these people to be left behind? Don’t bother to ask."
