Rump "Willfully Ignorant" Says Robert Gates


"Mr. Trump is also willfully ignorant about the rest of the world, about our military and its capabilities, and about government itself. He disdains expertise and experience while touting his own—such as his claim that he knows more about ISIS than America’s generals. He has no clue about the difference between negotiating a business deal and negotiating with sovereign nations.” -- Former Defense Secretary and CIA Director Robert Gates, writing in an op-ed for the Wall Street Journal (no link). He's certainly not grading the narcissistic demagogue on a curve.

Gates, who has served under Republican and Democratic administrations, went on to say that Rump is "beyond repair" on national security matters, and that "he is unqualified and unfit to be commander in chief."
