Associated other than in a business sense i think is a mistake. i think it s false narrative. you said something interesting in another interview. you said you thought president obama s foreign policy is a lot better than he communicates it. what did you mean by that? i think that there s been some very real achievements in the military with president obama. i think that he has he has managed a difficult situation where the american people were tired of war, 14, 15 years of war, and how do we conduct ourselves so that we don t send troops to deal with every single problem around the world. i think i certainly was opposed to the intervention in libya. i said can we can i just finish the two war i m already in before you go looking for a third one. i think his restraint frankly from further engagements of u.s. forces in a major way is has been the right thing to do. ....
