A curveball in Trump’s Veep search: He’s seriously considering a retired general
July 9, 2016
"Flynn’s formal vetting by the Trump campaign was first reported by the New York Post. In an interview with the newspaper, Flynn did not deny that he was under consideration."

I saw Gen. Michael Flynn's Sunday interview, this morning.
What do I hear from him ?
"Hillary Clinton is irresponsible."
Is it possible to have an accurate quote , concerning the words that other people are putting in her mouth ?
(oooooo! Hillary said white.)
Hillary Clinton said
"I will call for white people like myself to put ourselves in the shoes of those African-American families who fear every time their children go somewhere, who have to have the talk about how to really protect themselves when they're the ones that should be expecting protection from encounters with police."
"I think we are the ones who have to start listening to the legitimate cries that are coming from our African-American fellow citizens and we have so much more to be done and we have got to get about the business of doing it."
"I want white people to understand how African Americans feel everyday. The anxiety and fear, particularly sending off their children, particularly young men, not knowing what's going to happen to them."

Who is Flynn ?
Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn is expected to end his tenure as DIA director this summer, about a year before he was scheduled to depart, according to officials who said Flynn faced pressure from Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper Jr. and others in recent months. His deputy, David Shedd, had been in his job since 2010.

Commissioned an Army second lieutenant the morning of his graduation in 1981, Mike became an intelligence officer, platoon leader, and then instructor in his early days. Promotions quickly followed.
Afterr graduating in 1986 and being commissioned a second lieutenant, Charlie pursued infantry leadership training and climbed the chain of command. He served in the 75th Ranger Regiment, as chief of operations for the 25th Infantry Division, and as battalion commander of the 2-504 Parachute Infantry Regiment. He spent well over a year in Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom before assuming his current position at the Pentagon.
Both had overlapping assignments to Fort Bragg, N.C., between 2005 and 2007 and lived next door to each other. Both agreed that they actually saw the other more in Iraq than in their own backyards.

Is it possible to more irresponsible than Trump ?
Trump does not take responsibility for anything.
Trump's main activity is deflecting responsibility, for inaccuracy,lies, fraud, racist statements, association with racists and bigots.
