50 Former National Security Officials Say Trump 'Not Qualified to Be President'

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/50-national-security-officials-trump-qualified-president/story?id=41215597



Fifty former national security officials whose careers span more than four decades released a letter today critical of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, stating that they would not vote for the real estate mogul in November.

The statement — signed by a former director of the CIA and National Security Agency, ex-secretaries of homeland security and former top aides and advisers for the White House, State Department and Department of Justice, among others — is the latest in a series of public rebukes of Trump’s capacity to guide the nation’s defense and foreign policy by former government leaders.

“Donald Trump is not qualified to be president and commander-in-chief,” reads the letter. “Indeed, we are convinced that he would be a dangerous president and would put at risk our country’s national security and well-being.”


I do not trust him with anything he is a big risk to our country I cant believe anybody would even think about voting for Trump

that Hillary is our DNC nominee, she is capable, and so very qualified. I have upmost confidence in Hillary's ability and Trump scares the crap out of me.
