Richard V. Spencer, President Trumps ousted former Navy secretary, endorsed on Friday the opposing White House campaign of Democratic candidate Michael R. Bloomberg.
Mr. Spencer, who was asked to resign in November amid a dispute involving retired Navy SEAL and convicted war criminal Edward R. Gallagher, stumped for Mr. Bloomberg during a campaign event held in Virginia shortly after his support was announced on the candidates official website.
Speaking near a naval base in Norfolk, Mr. Spencer touted the billionaire media mogul and former New York City mayor for having characteristics crucial to running the country.
We need a leader with integrity and discipline who is a pragmatic problem solver, said Mr. Spencer.
If we are to sustain this experiment called democracy, America needs the best leader available. A leader who understands the complexities of todays world both foreign and domestic. A leader who can articulate, implement his strategy while having a steady hand on the wheel, Mr. Spencer added. Mr. Spencer, 66, led the Navy for more than two years under Mr. Trump prior to being pushed out amid a disagreement over Gallagher, who was convicted of posing with a human corpse but allowed with the presidents support to retire as a SEAL. He is the first former high-ranking member of the Trump administration to back Mr. Bloomberg, who launched his campaign in November and has steadily gained in the polls since.

Richard Spencer is such an elite, effete, effeminate piece of unAmerican, commie dung. He should be stripped of his commission for denigrating his Commander-In-Chief and striving against our Constitution.
sour grapes from an anti Trumper
Oh, yes! Those big slurpee drinks were an important problem to be solved, for sure!
Fitting...
will someone please hand Spencer a phone so that he can call someone that gives a rat schiff who he supports.
When you are fired, you BECOME vindictive. It’s understandable.
An endorsement from this dweeb is slander. Can Bloomie sue?
Scratch the part about stripping the commission. There’s no commission. And apparently, he was in the service during that weird period of time under Ford and Carter.

“Spencer served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1976 to 1981 as a Marine Aviator”
So many bad appointments.
I had expected President Trump to be better at that.
My only comment...the Shittff ayes have it !

First you have to be able to get them confirmed and appointments of idiots like this are part of the back and forth dealing in DC. We probably got some judges in exchange so it's ok. Some behind guy who was on the take must have been pissed that this guy took himself out by being insubordinate over an issue that the MIC probably doesn't care about.
This guy was a civilian, right? He wasn’t in the military?
Another disgrunteled employee who thinks that he’s the boss. What a pathetic a$$.
Yes. While most service secretaries have served as junior officers in the service they are secretary of, they have transformed themselves into political hacks by the time they are considered for appointment.
Thanks for that info. I was not aware it was a civilian position, seeing as he’s pictured in uniform with his full set of medals.

Don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split Ya
It might hit Adam Schiff if it does
Typically he hangs out on the Poop Deck
Heh, the Trumpster “fired” his sorry Obamahole.
Given the woke silliness and incompetence displayed in the Navy prior to the dismissal, ‘twould seem a logical to fire the NavSec.
And this clown’s endorsing a loon such as Bloomberg does a pretty fair job of confirming the Trumpster’s judgement.
MAGA. The Don rules.
Ill bet this is the cuck that put women on the subs.
Another vindictive prick.
