Ex-CIA director: 'Trump shows 'qualities usually found in infidels, narcissistic, vengeful autocrats'
2017-12-22
[The Hill] Former CIA Director John Brennan slammed President Trump in a tweet Thursday, saying the president shows "qualities usually found in narcissistic, vengeful autocrats."

Brennan, a vocal critic of Trump, posted the comment shortly after joining Twitter on Thursday. He condemned Trump's tough stance against critics of his declaration of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

"Trump Admin threat to retaliate against nations that exercise sovereign right in UN to oppose US position on Jerusalem is beyond outrageous," tweeted Brennan, who led the CIA under former President Obama.

"Shows @realDonaldTrump expects blind loyalty and subservience from everyone‐qualities usually found in narcissistic, vengeful autocrats," he added.

#15  Credit should be given however. Brennan is still performing a valuable function for Soetoro and the Deep State cadre.

#13  Brennan is as crooked as can be - he is afraid of being exposed as a lying incompetent traitorous tool for progressives and Obama.

#12  He isn't a deep state animal and we hate him for it....

...and unlike the previous fellow, we are anticipating a severe 'asset control' problem.

Actually, it's sort of something I would expect from someone who grew up in NYC (less trust fund snowflakes sheltered by mom and dad away from city streets). Capish?

#6  Now what we need is a little pedophilia scandal from within the CIA. Running drugs out of Afghanistan doesn't cut the mustard.

#5  IMO, your interpretation gives them too much credit.... I see them as adult (and very dangerous) version of snowflakes.

Your on the right track. 'Snowflakes' are their progeny.

#3  It's not Trump he fears, it's the 'uncovering' of illicit activities he and others are most concerned about. Their hand picked candidate lost the election, and elections have consequences. The only way to cloak their transgressions is through a constant media barrage of attacks on Trump in the hope something sticks.
