Lt. Gen. Honore to Trump: "Focus on the future damn storm...stay off the damn golf course"

https://www.msnbc.com/hallie-jackson/watch/lt-general-tells-trump-to-focus-on-florence-stay-off-golf-course-1319665731805?v=raila&


Retired Lieutenant General Russel Honoré, former commander of Hurricane Katrina Joint Task Force, reacts to President Trump's tweets and statements on Hurricane Maria, and comments on his preparedness to handle incoming Hurricane Florence: "If I was his boss or standing next to him [Trump] as his Chief of Staff I would kick him on the ankle and say 'look, focus on the future damn storm...stay off the damn golf course.'"



Video at the link.

Honore also said that Trump wasn't born a politician, but he's "sure as hell" acting like one.

And he said that if he were Trump's boss or his chief of staff and standing next to him, he'd kick him on the ankle to get his attention before saying the words quoted in the subject line.
