The biparisan foreign policy establishment is for Hillary

I Ran the C.I.A. Now I’m Endorsing Hillary Clinton.

In the intelligence business, we would say that Mr. Putin had recruited Mr. Trump as an unwitting agent of the Russian Federation.

Ex-CIA chief endorses Clinton, calls Trump an ‘unwitting agent’ of Russia

Mr. Morell joins a growing number of foreign policy experts who say they will back Mrs. Clinton over Mr. Trump, including former National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft and former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage, who are both Republicans.

Frank Lavin, who served as director of the Office of Political Affairs under Ronald Reagan and ambassador to Singapore under George W. Bush, also endorsed Mrs. Clinton in a statement provided to Politico.

“Having served under Presidents Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, I’ve seen what it takes to be commander-in-chief, and to make split second decisions under extreme pressure – Donald Trump doesn’t have that,” Mr. Lavin said.

“I simply can’t support someone as erratic as Donald Trump,” he added. 

“That’s why for the first time in my life, I am voting for a Democrat for president, I’m voting for Hillary Clinton because she has what it takes to keep our country safe from threats here at home and abroad.”
