Something about the lack of leadership in this country, people who are especially people who are in the president s own party who refuse to stand up to him or say that this isrong? such a strongly worded tweet or something. well, history is going to not judge well particularly those people, republicans in congress for example and others who don t speak out when their heart and conscience tells them that they should. i don t think there s any question about that. further more we are at a critical point here. we need to start listening to one another. i know it has become a cliche. we need to really listen and try to discuss what we have at stake, immigration being in some civil manner. the president has a leadership responsibility. he sets the tone.
Each other rather than shouting to one another. really listen and try to discuss what we have at stake, immigration being full most in some civil manner. the president has the leadership responsibility, he sets the tone. his tone as described earlier, is one he caters to his supporters, he damns everybody and everything that even gives one scintilla of questioning or resistance. this is why we re in a very critical point in our country. it s not an overstatement to be, what s going on now is the battle of the soul of the country. yeah, i have said a number of times we have to decided this administration is offering us, if there s anything, offering us the opportunity to decide or figure out who we re going to be as a country. i have to go i m out of time. always a pleasure. good to see you, don, thanks. when we come back i ll ask
Tolerate. do you see these tweets as repudiation of the way the president handled the event or more about military leaders feeling responsibility to do it because of the circumstances? they command african-american troops, gay troops, jewish troops. it s definitely the latter. i agree with john kirby on this one. they have a leadership responsibility. their mission is to train, lead, equip, and man the forces. so they have to keep the continual emphasis on values and ethos. mark s comment about he specifically said, our values since 1775. the army was established a year before the nation was. and the seven army values are continually emphasized in basic training and in units. three of those values are loyalty to one another, respect for each other, and personal courage to stand up when you see something going wrong. so as the chief of staff of the army and all the other chiefs as well, they re saying hey, there are some things going on in our country. don t get distracted by thes
Politics. i will tell you having served with them, they don t believe what they did was weighing into politics. they believe what they did was an act of leadership, sending a strong message to their people, their families, to potential recruits and the american people what the military stands for, the values that we espouse and what you can expect from your military going forward. this was very much an important strategic moment to lay down a marker about what the u.s. military will and will not tolerate. do you see these tweets as repudiation of the way the president handled the event or more about military leaders feeling responsibility to do it because of the circumstances? they command african-american troops, gay troops, jewish troops. it s definitely the latter. i agree with john kirby on this one. they have a leadership responsibility. their mission is to train, lead, equip, and man the forces. so they have to keep the continual emphasis on values and
Scaramucci report to. the president. it says in the written statement he reports to the president. that what it said before but is it now with kelly as chief of staff. i would love to excellecomme that. he needs absolute authority. andy, go lead. general kelly understands what leadership responsibility is. he demonstrated he s respected it. he s respected the chain of kmant. i do believe that he will bring important leadership discipline to the organization at the white house and i hope that it includes the reality that you can t really serve the president well as a chief of staff if you are not all informed. people should respect the chief of staff s responsibilities and role. my rule was that the chief of staff should no before, during or after when a meeting with the
