Trump’s inconsistencies have made it nearly impossible to pin down how exactly he will govern. His cabinet and advisor selections are the first glimpse we get into what type of president he will be. Of all the positions he’s announced so far, perhaps none is more important than the National Security Advisor. It is this person’s responsibility to know what is happening in the world and advise the president on emerging threats. Trump selected retired Gen. Michael Flynn, the loon who was a staple on any Fox News set during the campaign.
This man has touted conspiracy theories and is aggressively opposed to the Iran deal. His selection concerned many in the intelligence community and one of his former employees thinks he may lead us to war with Iran.
I do not trust Flynn to objectively and intelligently advise the president on the threats we face and I’m genuinely scared for our safety under a Trump presidency.
