After former CIA head Mike Morell endorsed Hillary Clinton for president in an op-ed and accused Donald Trump of being an unwitting agent of the Russians, Trump hit back in a statement denouncing Morell as just another Clinton pawn.

“Hillary Clinton and President Obama bear the direct responsibility of destabilizing the Middle East, having let ISIS take firm hold and Iraq, Libya and Syria, not to mention their allowing Americans to be slaughtered at Benghazi,” Trump began.

“Clinton’s home email server that she lied to the American people about was a profound national security risk, and it should come as no surprise that her campaign would push out another Obama-Clinton pawn (who is not independent) to try to change the subject in a week when Clinton’s role in putting Iran on the path to nuclear weapons and this Administration’s being called out for sending $400 million in cash to the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism is on every front page in the country,” he continued.

“Hillary Clinton has bad judgment and is unfit to serve as president,” Trump concluded simply.

1. You, Donald, are the profound national security risk

Mr. Morell is a career professional who has served administrations on both sides

2. Trump is such an idiot.

If he could keep his mouth shut and ignore this endorsement, 99.99% of the country wouldn't even know about it. But Trump has to counterpunch on everything, so his counterpunch becomes a story which does nothing to help him. All it does is highlight an endorsement that no one would have noticed save for Trump's bitching.

4. Well said. Exactly.

3. yawn

Most of the people in this country are smart enough not to be taken in with this illogic. Sadly there's a cadre that celebrate stupidity, hate, racism, intolerance and violence and those are the Drumpf voters. Thankfully it's not sufficient to actually elect him.

5. I am beset on all sides! The vote is rigged! How many arrows..... Etc.

It works in their world but nowhere else. It totally underminds his whole tough guy act.

6. drumpf just made Morell's point -

From Morell's NYT op-ed -

In sharp contrast to Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Trump has no experience on national security. Even more important, the character traits he has exhibited during the primary season suggest he would be a poor, even dangerous, commander in chief.


These traits include his obvious need for self-aggrandizement, his overreaction to perceived slights, his tendency to make decisions based on intuition, his refusal to change his views based on new information, his routine carelessness with the facts, his unwillingness to listen to others and his lack of respect for the rule of law.


Sums up the worst presidential candidate in our history.....

7. Hang On Trump, Gonna Be A Long Ride...

8. Among the top of trump's missing values is accountability...

This guy is the total embodiment of a sociopath and psychopath. He lacks empathy, is solely focused on "me, me, me" and nothing is ever his fault while taking credit for anyone else's ideas. And to think this dumb*ss has been allowed to pro-create so there are future generations of these dysfunctional societal freaks at the top of the societal foodchain in our country's future. Trump is a one-man apocalypse.. but the good news is that he's done an excellent job of shooting both of his feet off with his psychotic behavior the past week.

9. The MAN/CHILD TRUMP...

Can't let a single person who criticizes him go without giving them his childish two cents worth...And in this case he is proving former CIA head Mike Morell point exactly! LOL!

10. Morell was Bush’s briefer during the September 11, 2001, attacks

yeah...an Obama/Clinton pawn

[alphafemale]

11. He is incapable of restraint.

Damn.

[Yallow]

12. Trump Forgot To Mention Who Actually De-Stabilized The Middle East

Bush and Cheney.

Oh well.....
