The Hill: Ex-CIA chief: Trump ‘unstable, inept, inexperienced, and also unethical’
Former CIA chief John Brennan on Friday predicted "rough waters ahead," particularly on international issues, saying President Trump is "unstable, inept, inexperienced, and also unethical."
In an interview with MSNBC's "Deadline: White House," Brennan told host Nicolle Wallace that the president was "ill prepared" to take on the duties of commander in chief, particularly growing military aggression from Russia and North Korea.
"It is no secret to anybody that Donald Trump was very ill prepared and unexperienced in terms of dealing with matters that a head of state needs to deal with, head of government, and I think this is now coming to roost," Brennan said.

WNU Editor: For the entire week .... beside the above remarks from former CIA Director Brennan .... the media narrative is that the White House is in chaos, and that everyone wants to leave. I guess this New York Times article sums it up .... Trump’s Chaos Theory for the Oval Office Is Taking Its Toll (New York Times). What's my take .... and everyone who reads this blog knows that I like to take the contrarian point of view with what the media is saying .... I (of course) have a different point of view. For an administration that is in complete chaos .... they sure as hell have a done a lot in the past year .... Heritage Foundation: 64% of Trump's agenda already done, faster than Reagan (Washington Examiner). And while I have no clue on what is happening in the White House (and I would say neither does the White House Press corps) .... I do know one thing. When administrations are in chaos .... they cannot do anything. But this administration .... much to the disapproval of its opponents .... appears to be accomplishing just the opposite.

Brennan, Clapper and Holder should all be in jail right now. All have been caught lying on camera and in front of Congress. I take their words for a grain of salt, they are well known liars.
The ex CIA chief is the pot calling the kettle black. Hypocrite is the best I can say about his conduct.
Mostly what Trump has done is to undo what his predecessor had done...there is the Tax change, and that will leave us with an huge deficit in a number of years, as every reputable economist has noted, and gave a small gain for the average worker and a huge gain for the very wealthy.
Has there ever been a turnover of those working for the govt at high levels ever before that matches this president? or unfilled important slots?
Obama believed by some to be a secret muslim...or not so secret one: ie, Trump..case closed
"Photo of Obama and Farrakhan Was Suppressed at Request of Black Lawmakers, Claims Journalist"
- Haaretz
Yes, the case is closed.
Obama sat in a church for 20 years run by a minister who did everything but swap spit with Louis Farahkhan. Maybe he did that too.
Obama has been weighed. Obama has been measured. And Obama absolutely has been found wanting.

are you now Jesus with the He has been weighed and found wanting? He is still highly regarded by sensible people. a picture with Farahkahn? How about pic of Trump with Putin?
Fact: give us proof that Obama is or ever was a Muslim.
nice though to see you cite left wing Haaretz to show a photo!
ah, he attended a church run by a minister who was close perhaps to F.? guilty as sin! burn him...lordy, just like Senator Joesph M. during the old great days.
Was Obama married as Muslim? Does his family women all wear Muslim head garb?
You have been judged and found wanting
Putin meets with many people. Trump met with Putin before he became a designated enemy of 'the people' (DNC). The DNC designates enemies of the state. Basher Assad was some one to schmooze & drool over until he became an enemy. Dim Dems are always trying to play "Simon says".
1) Putin & Obama
2) Putin & Bush
3) Putin & Merkel
4) Putin & John Forbes (China opium trade) Kerry
5) Putin & Hillary (Looks like Putin gives her more joy than Bill)
6) Nancy Pelosi & Assad (the butcher of Damascus)

Fred,
If Obama got a photo op with David Duke, Fred would not care.
Farahkhan is much worse than David Duke. There are maybe 3,000 to 3,500 KKK per the SPLC.
There are 50,000 members Nation of Islam (NOI) and they are virulently racist.
Now Fred, you could read up on the racist ideology of the NOI on things like Big Head Jacub , but you are not much of a reader and never were.
Here is a link, maybe you could read it before your brain gets too tired and you start looking at nudie picks again.

"The U.S. political conversation is not and probably never was driven by Russian social-media bots." -Washington Post
I feel sorry for Fred & Jay.
Now, the WaPo and NYT will give them new marching orders and they will dutifully goose step in the new directions.
Poor Jay, poor Fred,
They spent all that money on education and were mis-educated.

"he truth – as it often is – is very different from liberal hyperbole." - Judy
If, Smith, you are an example of a decent education, then we can do without. You remain hostile, venomous, child-like,low class, tasteless...in sum a name calling piece of shitthat you do not like girls that I post is ok; our sexual rules have changed and so what appeals to you is ok these days. I do not like Nation of Islam nor Duke's gangs, but so long as they do not break laws they have a right to exist.
you confuse me with the mangled ref to Judy...Judy Collins, Judy Garland, or Hey Jude?
Your cheap attempt to condemn by aligning pics of this one with that one is the sort of nonsense that no decent educated person reverts to since the 50s.
and finally, though I can not speak for Jay, just bug off in references to me: I do not need your hate, contempt, redneck remarks, or your sorrow for me
That you are allowed to post such comments is, I belive, a lowering of the usefulness of this site. Your hate against those who disagree with you spoils reading posts here. You are a malign misfit, whose views are lost in the septic tank language you surround comments in.
In the words of the ancient prophet: go phuck thyself
"they have a right to exist."
Where did I say they did not, 'shithat'. BTW you might want to get the terminology right. It is 'asshat'. That is what all the fashionable liberals form the Castor district are using.
My implication and assertion is that Obama is a racist. After looking at that picture and know the long association of Wright and Farakhan, I would not be surprised if Obama had the genotype of cold sores.
"Though Obama is a practicing Christian and he was chiefly raised by his mother and her Christian parent" -wiki
"Obama was baptized into the United Church of Christ (UCC) denomination and formally joined it in 1988" - wiki
Really? Those two statements are incongruous. Obama was baptized at age 27 because err, his mother and maternal grandparent were Christian somehow. They must have worn it on the seat of their pants. No, that family were a bunch of godless communists. Then Obama went to Reverend Wright's church and he is about as Christian as Der Corporal.
There is evidence however to convict Obama of being a mutt, a liberal atheist Muslim mix.
"you confuse me with the mangled ref to Judy"
That was a post by a commenter in a liberal paper, which I think summed up liberals quite nicely. Don't you think so?
I wanted to see what people were saying about the Russian bots 'problem' news article featured in all places, the WaPo. Well a stopped clock is right twice a day. I do not think we have a bot problem. I thin k we have a problem in American high schools were they socially promote people with low aptitudes.
Fred,
Wait, what?
You use the term shithat and then you complain about septic tank language?
What do you think goes into a septic tank? Sugar & spice?
