Not for me. I remember the last time someone formerly from JSOC worked in the WH. Remember Linda Tripp?
Something here went horribly wrong. I agree that it probably started with the PAO. Their job is to screen and protect the boss while getting the correct message out. Having a reporter around too long, too much is just asking for something to be said/done in an unguarded moment. Even O-10s get pissed and blow off steam. His inner circle should all be trusted agents. The quotes I read seemed to be coming from staff officers who were talking second hand. Ever seen a staff guy with an ego that needed to be stroked? Yeah.
These guys failed the boss IMO. He's going to have to fall on his sword - you can't be quoted in public not agreeing with the civilian side. That's why Honduras has
golpes de estados and we don't The civilian heads of the military make the policy and we salute.
It's too bad. I thought he had a better than even chance of pulling off a win in A-stan, though not a WW2-style total victory.
