Richard Clarke Hopes “the System Will Resist” to Stop Trump from Launching Attack

Next time someone spots Richard Clarke’s car, check to see if he’s sporting a “Resist” bumper sticker . . .

On CNN today, former Madeleine Albright adviser Clarke expressed the hope that “the system” would “resist” President Trump should he order an attack on North Korea or Iran.

Clarke said “we have to worry” that President Trump would try, for personal reasons, to launch an attack against North Korea or Iran. Continued Clarke:

“We do have Secretary Mattis standing between him and our forces. So if the President wakes up in the middle of the night and is mad at Iran and orders some attack, hopefully the system will resist.”

Thanks for the pic. I looked him up in Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary and his picture shows up with the words “feckless turd!”

I doubt that retired Marine General Mattis appreciates being cast as someone who would disobey an order from the Commander-in-Chief.

I suppose from, at least my own view point, not sure what is being resisted. From “their” view point, any and everything that
PDJT does is to be resisted. Add a resist sticker next to the Captains bars sticker on yer bumper. I guess.

Nothing else they’ve tried is working, so now they’re on to digging up old Dem bones and running with the ‘Trump Must Be Stopped by his own Generals” meme.

LOLOL.

I believe the precise technical terms for “the system resisting” are sedition and treason.

Such things can lead to terminal sore throats, neck pain and rope burns.

These idiots don’t get it. Trump’s strong language got rocket man to put away his rockets. Same here. This language will get the bearded mullahs to forget about ever attacking this country.

And if they do? they and their country’s arsenal will be destroyed.

The country was ruled for too long by weak men. Look at the jerk in the picture. No more. New sheriff in town.

In other words, he hopes that the US military establishment will ignore lawful orders from the Command-in-Chief of the armed forces. Richard Clarke should study the Constitution and stop embarrassing himself - he owes the US military an apology for even suggesting that they could behave so disgracefully.

What is with that “we” shit dude?
I don’t have to worry about that.
No one I know worries about that.
Maybe it is a symptom of Trump Derangement Syndrome!

His eyes are creepy balls of hate, like Schiff's and Strzok's. Figures he'd be given a forum for his demagoguery and sedition by CNN.

Thanks governsleastgovernsbest.

So now he’s running interference for North Korea and Iran?

Yikes...

No wonder we’re having to clean up after him.

Agreed: CNN can always count on Clarke to bash Trump.

Is this the same Dick Clark who was a top level government terror and security expert? He was in that position for years leading up to 9/11. He should slither back into the hole he came out of.
