Former George W. Bush Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff endorses Hillary Clinton
New York Daily News ^ | October 3, 2016 | Adam Edelman

Another prominent Republican has endorsed Hillary Clinton.

Michael Chertoff, who served as George W. Bush's secretary of Homeland Security during his second term in office, told Bloomberg News that the Democratic nominee "has good judgment and a strategic vision how to deal with threats that face us."

Chertoff, who as a federal prosecutor led a Congressional probe into the Whitewater real estate scandal surrounding Bill and Hillary Clinton in the 1990s, added that "Trump's sense of loyalties are misplaced" and that the stakes, regarding terrorism and potential attacks, are too high to leave to someone like him

Chertoff even pointed to Trump's behavior at the — and in the days following — the first debate.

The Daily Rag referring to any Republican as prominent is a laugh in itself.

Chertoff was a precursor to Trey Gowdy. Talks good but can’t even write an angry letter like Issa.

Truth always Outs.

Trump - like him or hate him - has done wonders in turning over rocks and exposing Republican corruption for what it is. Nothing that we FReepers didn't know already, for the most part, but the fact that there's not a dime's bit of difference between many Republicans and Democrats will be a revelation to a whole lot of Americans.

Chertoff. Isn’t he the one Romney hired as an advisor (to show the RINOs he cared), but the guy later betrayed him by publicizing the 47% comment?

Hopefully more people will wake up and realize, Punch and Judy appear to be to distinct puppets, but in reality have the same persons hand controlling them.

You should read the commentary in this thread. Apparently this business of getting rich by what is effectively government corruption and collusion of the "connected" has simply gotten worse since the civil war.

It is no accident that the immediate post civil war governance is considered the worst period of corruption the nation has ever seen.

It was never wiped out, it just got better at hiding the corruption and the influence.

And where is this guy from? New Jersey! Part of the DC/Boston corridor of power.

Never trusted Skeletor.

He didn’t disappoint. Figures he would rather have a person who completely endangered national security than someone who wants to put America First.

Exhibit A: Laws are for the little people.

This is why most feral prosecutors are just straight-up thugs with badges.

It’s a good match.

Chertoff’s darn near as incompetent as Hillary.

Sure Chertoff endorses Hillary Clinton...because Trump will nix his sweet-heart TSA naked X-ray machine sales.

These people don’t give a damn about the country, only themselves.

Eisenhower didn't go far enough. It's way beyond a "Military Industrial Complex" it's a "All parts of Government Media Industrial Complex."

Every aspect of business that is touched by Government has become colluded with special interests. The lure of abundant tax payer money (and government borrowed money) is simply too powerful for these corrupt people to resist.

And they *OWN* the media. That's why it's liberal, and that's why we never hear information detrimental to these people.
