Donald “Drain the Swamp” Trump responding to recent media stories (attributed to “anonymous sources”, per usual), pretending he’s an observant bystander in all this:
“I’m not saying the military’s in love with me. The soldiers are. The top people in the Pentagon probably aren’t because they want to do nothing but fight wars so all of those wonderful companies that make the bombs and make the planes and make everything else stay happy.
Trump also said that his desire to withdraw all U.S. troops from Syria now that the Islamic State no longer holds any territory has put him at odds with military leaders.
“I said: That’s good; let’s bring our soldiers back home,” Trump said. “Some people don’t like to come home. Some people like to continue to spend money.
“One cold-hearted globalist betrayal after another, that’s what it was.”
