John Brennan tweet on Ronny Jackson as Trump's nominee to replace Shulkin





I personally know and greatly respect Ronny Jackson....as a terrific doctor and Navy officer. However, he has neither the experience nor the credentials to run the very large and complex VA. This is a terribly misguided nomination that will hurt both a good man and our veterans

from the Navy to take the position? IMO, a huge conflict of interest if he doesn't.

But either way, another "yes" man in the cabinet.

Tells me they he is not a man of integrity and honor. A mid level navy doctor has no clue how to lead a 321,000 person bureaucracy with upwards of 1,000 health care facilities. He lost his credibility on a very micro level when he very obviously lied about trumps health and weight. This is bs of the highest order. And if he’s half the man Brennan thinks he is, he’d walk away now.
