50 G.O.P. Officials Warn Donald Trump Would Put Nation’s Security ‘at Risk’

In other news today, 50 Russian National Security Advisers endorsed Donald Trump and gave him their full support.
 
‘Most fundamentally, Mr. Trump lacks the character, values, and experience to be President. He weakens U.S. moral authority as the leader of the free world. He appears to lack basic knowledge about and belief in the U.S. Constitution, U.S. laws, and U.S. institutions, including religious tolerance, freedom of the press, and an independent judiciary.

In addition, Mr. Trump has demonstrated repeatedly that he has little understanding of America’s vital national interests, its complex diplomatic challenges, its indispensable alliances, and the democratic values on which U.S. foreign policy must be based. At the same time, he persistently compliments our adversaries and threatens our allies and friends. Unlike previous Presidents who had limited experience in foreign affairs, Mr. Trump has shown no interest in educating himself. He continues to display an alarming ignorance of basic facts of contemporary international politics. Despite his lack of knowledge, Mr. Trump claims that he understands foreign affairs and “knows more about ISIS than the generals do.”’

Very true.

And again: this is coming from republicans.
They know --- like all sane individuals --- the damage he would do to this country, and to them it isn't worth paying that price just to have a republican as president for the next four years.
 
Trump supporters just want to see lots of cool wars on TV.
Yeah totally.That's exactly what's going to happen. The new Russian/American pact will finish ISIS and get the fuck out of the Middle East.
Keep dreaming ruskie lover. Have you learned nothing about fighting wars in the middle east? You cannot just kill your way to victory there.

We've been bombing the hell out of them too and significant progress has been made, at least in Iraq where Russia is not doing anything, but the real solution to ISIS lies in the people of the region not with foreign intervention. Russia is mainly bombing opposition forces in Syria and could not care less about ISIS except where they are opposing Assad.

How would you handle isis?
 
The Republican policy advisors, many of whom worked for Reagan, said of Trump: "He continues to show an alarming ignorance of basic facts."

Here is the problem.

Trump is only saying what is necessary to succeed with Republican voters who lack a college degree.

What if he is not as stupid as he is acting? What if his ignorance of basic facts is merely an act to appeal to the stupid people who listen to talk radio and vote in the primaries?

I think Trump is playing a game. I don't think he is as ignorant as the people who support him on these boards.
 
A new line of Trump flak jackets coming soon to a gun store near you!

First I would not offer any bullshit promises of any sort of quick victory because it is not possible. Second you just keep calm, stay the course and refuse to be further drawn in to a no-win occupation. Be willing to support local forces only as far as they are willing to sacrifice for their own country. Do whatever it takes to contain the violence to the area. Make it clear that there is no good defense for the lone wolf terrorist short of throwing our own freedoms away and that it is a price we will never pay.
 
He literally has no support anymore other than toothless fat men living in mobile homes (and homebound nutcases on internet forums). (Letter at link)

Dozens of the nation’s most senior Republican national security officials, many of them former top aides or cabinet members for President George W. Bush, have signed a letter saying they will not vote for Mr. Trump, the Republican nominee.
Shocker! Neocon advisors don't like an American first politician! It's breaking news!
The very same "neocon advisors" whose cocks Trump's Chumps lined up to suck when Bush was President.

Hilarious.

Russia won't be able to muster any forces for ISIS as Putin will be busy invading the Ukraine, Georgia, and the Baltic states.

Don't you mean the new Pootin/Trump pact? It probably won't finish ISIS given Russia's support of ISIS and with Trump in tow they'll nuke the hell out of the middle east and Israel. But that's good news for you, right?

Unfortunately, that cloud of radioactive Pootin/Trump poop will destroy all life on this planet as well.
 
You don't see a shitload of Democrats from all walks defecting from Clinton.

Trump is fucked. He's losing support from every nook and cranny of the Right. From the top all the way down.

50 G.O.P. Officials Warn Donald Trump Would Put Nation’s Security ‘at Risk’

Source: New York Times
Fifty of the nation’s most senior Republican national security officials, many of them former top aides or cabinet members for President George W. Bush, have signed a letter declaring that Donald J. Trump “lacks the character, values and experience” to be president and “would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being.”

Mr. Trump, the officials warn, “would be the most reckless president in American history.”

The letter says Mr. Trump would weaken the United States’ moral authority and questions his knowledge of and belief in the Constitution. It says he has “demonstrated repeatedly that he has little understanding” of the nation’s “vital national interests, its complex diplomatic challenges, its indispensable alliances and the democratic values” on which American policy should be based. And it laments that “Mr. Trump has shown no interest in educating himself.”

“None of us will vote for Donald Trump,” the letter states, though it notes later that many Americans “have doubts about Hillary Clinton, as do many of us.”

Trump is not to be trusted.
Your candidate will be passed out on the floor before she has time to read this.

Can't fix stupid
 
Did some research on Roger Zakheim, one of the 50 who just appeared on FOX with Shepard Smith. Zakheim spews the idiotic Democrat talking points and could provide absolutely nothing intelligent or anything of substance. Turns out the douchebag is a neocon nutter who is hellbent on having the USA fight wars for Israel. He had aspirations for advancement, but looks like he might have to get a job with Bernie Madoff's relatives or similar since The Donald is going to tell him January 2016, "You're fired!"
