"Trump has
also damaged the country in countless ways that don’t directly involve
national security but, by stoking hatred and division, make Americans
profoundly less safe.
"The
president’s bungled response to the coronavirus pandemic is the
ultimate example. In his cavalier disregard for the seriousness of the
threat, Trump failed to make effective use of the federal crisis
response system painstakingly built after 9/11. Years of DHS planning
for a pandemic threat have been largely wasted. Meanwhile, more than 165,000 Americans have died.
"It
is more than a little ironic that Trump is campaigning for a second
term as a law-and-order president. His first term has been dangerously
chaotic. Four more years of this are unthinkable." -- lifelong Republican Miles Taylor, former chief- of- chief of the Department of Homeland Security under Trump, writing in the Washington Post.
