Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

    It concerns me a bit that (some) of the Never Trump Nat Sec experts had incomplete understanding of what opposing Trump will really take.

        They, like everyone else, really thought HRC would win. In long run they'll be better off not associated w/him.

        Trouble is, as a nation, we'd be better off with sanity in the NSA.

        Wouldn't we also be better off with people who understood fully what Never Trump might entail?

        I think they thought it more important to sound alarm, like many conservative newspapers that are feeling the backlash.

        They've never had to oppose anyone before. At least, not on their biggest agenda items.

        Constant whining form someone who could have been a voice of reason nationally. Sad!

        Too often we ascribe a level of competency to leaders that in fact does not exist.
