Former Defense Secretary Bob Gates told CBS News the he has some “real issues” with presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump’s positions on national security issues as well as his temperament.
Said Gates: “You can’t have a trade war with China and then turn around and ask them to help you on North Korea. I have no idea what his policy would be in terms of dealing with ISIS. I worry a little bit about his admiration for Vladimir Putin.”
He’s also concerned about Trump’s go-it-alone strategy: “I guess one of the things that makes it challenging for me is that he seems to think that he has all the answers and that he doesn’t need advice from staff or anybody else.”
