Disregard what Donald Trump said during the campaign, disregard tweets because it doesn't matter. When you become president - and you learn much more than you ever know as just an opinion leader on the sidelines - it changes everything.
Normally, what happens when we have a national leader who wants to do something in terms of military intervention, he tells the Pentagon, put together some options to accomplish goal.
The thing I have in common with Donald Trump is about a dozen years ago, we got a "Man of the Year" award in New York City, the Hotel Plaza from the USO. So I met him once and I found him to be very personable. He asked excellent questions throughout the 45 minutes that I was with him. Very, very engaged and very curious about the world and its complexity. Something, let's be honest, that he and many of his close in advisers that he's selected don't have a lot of knowledge about.
Most people who aspire to be president don't have a foreign policy andnational security background. The exception was certainly Hillary Clinton.
