Title: Former Ford, Bush national security adviser Scowcroft endorses Clinton

Brent Scowcroft, who was national security adviser to two Republican U.S. presidents, on Wednesday endorsed Democrat Hillary Clinton for president over Donald Trump, in a snub of the Republican Party's likely nominee by a prominent member of its security wing.

"The presidency requires the judgment and the knowledge to make tough calls under pressure," the Republican elder statesman said in a statement. "I believe Hillary Clinton has the wisdom and experience to lead our country at this critical time."

Scowcroft, 91, served as national security adviser under Presidents Gerald Ford and George H. W. Bush. Ford was president from 1974 to 1977 and Bush from 1989 to 1993.

He joined a number of well-known Republicans defecting due to the prospect of a Trump presidency, including Richard Armitage, deputy secretary of state under President George W. Bush.

Armitage gave Clinton, 68, who was secretary of state under Democratic President Barack Obama, his backing last week. Trump "doesn't appear to be a Republican, he doesn't appear to want to learn about issues. So, I’m going to vote for Mrs. Clinton," Armitage told Politico at the time.

The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Scowcroft's endorsement of Clinton.

Trump, 70, who has never held elected office, often boasts on the campaign trail his relative newness to politics, appealing to voters disillusioned by the current political climate.

Despite that facet of his appeal - which helped Trump beat 16 rivals in the campaign's primary phase to become his party's presumptive nominee - establishment Republicans worry that his inexperience and brash style will alienate foreign allies and other international partners.

Among his proposals, Trump has criticized NATO, a cornerstone of U.S. security policy, and said he would consider letting Japan and South Korea develop their own nuclear weapons instead of relying on the United States for protection against North Korea and China.

"Secretary Clinton shares my belief that America must remain the world's indispensable leader," Scowcroft said. "She understands that our leadership and engagement beyond our borders makes the world, and therefore the United States, more secure and prosperous."

Trump has said he would strengthen national security, but has offered few details about his plans, other than his proposals to build a wall at the U.S.-Mexican border and for a temporary ban on Muslims entering the United States.

Many national security experts have expressed alarm over the proposed ban and have warned that Trump’s fiery rhetoric on the campaign trail is fueling extremism.

Brent Scowcroft, eff him! He is just another CFR toady.

He endorses the bitch that got those guys killed in Benghazi, and allowed foreign nations to hack all of those emails & classified information, what a effing dumbass asshole he is! He is probably part traitor himself. Brent Scowcroft is just an example of some of the trash that needs to be taken out!

I remember that even Goldwater started leaning libtard in his "EHHHH" days.

Obama has played at being a president while enjoying the perks … golf, insanely expensive vacations at tax-payer expense. He has ignored the responsibilities of the job; no plans, no budgets, no alternatives … just finger pointing; making him a complete failure as a president

Both wings of the uni-party are worthy of your contempt. This is the time to make our votes count by switching to a second party.

Throw the D&R crime syndicate on the ash-heap of history, and vote for a pro-American ticket for a change.

Oh, I believe it. He's what, 91. It just illustrates that Bush, and the GOPe have been surrounded by the globalist / corporate CFR assholes. They are all in bed with the same assholes. They do not give a shit for the US, or our people. Everything they do is for the CFR, and to promote a NWO. Our nation, and our people will be better off when they are all gone. They hate Trump because they cannot control him. Before now, they have controlled the occupant of the White House like a monkey on a leash. They are so afraid of Trump, I seriously am afraid they will JFK him. I pray everyday for him to have Divine protection.

I read something the other day. I can't remember it verbatim. I thought I posted it a few days ago. I really like it. It went something like this:

" The Republicans, and the Democrats, they are the cheeks on the same ass, and their leaders are coming out of the hole in the middle " LOL

That's enough to swing an election. The Panamanian terrorist, ISIS Juan McCain was defeated, and also the ghey reconquista Anchor Baby Mitt. Trump's disapproval numbers are much higher than either of them, plus you're helping by voting for the NYC libtard loser, Poop Baby Trump.

HONDO, your hatred of Trump is getting as juvenile as Glen Becks. You need to grow up. Or, are you a closet Shitlery supporter?

juvenile as Glen Becks

Yet still far less juvenile than some of the trump bot, Hope & Change zombies. Their blind allegiance to The Donald and the R wing of the party no matter what, is extremely childlike.

The globalist establishment bushbots are falling in line, with Donald Rumsfeld now praising the kiddies favorite, Donald the Clown. No matter which way he flips or flops, they'll always love him, at least until election eve when he's revealed as a big fat loser and a Hillary shill!

You'll see.
