Insiders Say Trump Keeps Clashing With His National Security Adviser

by Business Insider - Paul Szoldra · May 9, 2017


President Donald Trump has repeatedly clashed with his national security adviser, H.R. McMaster, in front of his staff, according to a column by Eli Lake at Bloomberg published Monday.


The three-star Army general increasingly is being sidelined in favor of other advisers because Trump has become “disillusioned” with him, according to Lake. Three White House officials told Lake the president was “livid” after McMaster called his South Korean counterpart to assure him that Trump’s threat to make Seoul pay for the advanced THAAD missile defense system was not official policy.

That threat burned a lot of good will towards America in Asia.

He keeps doing that. Opens his gob without thinking and pisses people off.

Oh yeah, but call persecuted Middle Eastern Christians, anti-Semites for King Cruz is no problem.

What an admirable, informed and charitable comment as usual by CC.

I'd be more concerned if America was abandoning allies like Japan and North Korea, Trump has been solid in that. We have had joint military exercises with the South Koreans and Trump has given assurances to our friendship with them.

I don't see Trump being like Clinton and allowing a North Korean build up of nuclear weapons. Perhaps even other presidents are why NK has become so powerful.

Important things first.
