MSNBC’s McCaffrey: Gen. Milley Was Just Trying to Prevent ‘World War 1’ from Erupting

WALLACE It is a ░░░░░░░░ point General McCaffrey to ░░░░░░░░ at this as a ░░░░░░░░ but I think the ░░░░░░░░ piece is an evolution ░░░░░░░░ well I mean in ░░░░░░░░ unshackled phase Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ forcibly cleared Lafayette Square ░░░░░░░░ the murder of George ░░░░░░░░ and General Milley was ░░░░░░░░ in fatigues He put ░░░░░░░░ a video apologizing And ░░░░░░░░ m sure he did ░░░░░░░░ and moral and ethical ░░░░░░░░ before that moment but ░░░░░░░░ seems that he really ░░░░░░░░ the danger Trump represented ░░░░░░░░ everything we ve learned ░░░░░░░░ him after that moment ░░░░░░░░ wonder if you have ░░░░░░░░ insights into Milley as ░░░░░░░░ guardrail the last one ░░░░░░░░ Mike is basically explaining ░░░░░░░░ You know throughout this ░░░░░░░░ period I had rather ░░░░░░░░ understanding of what was ░░░░░░░░ on in government and ░░░░░░░░ scared me I was ░░░░░░░░ without question that we ░░░░░░░░ on the edge of ░░░░░░░░ ultimate constitutional crisis I ░░░░░░░░ it was unlikely that ░░░░░░░░ would use nuclear weapons ░░░░░░░░ he had full legal ░░░░░░░░ constitutional authority in theory ░░░░░░░░ command that But the ░░░░░░░░ that bothered me the ░░░░░░░░ was the secretary of ░░░░░░░░ was an acting sec ░░░░░░░░ Constitution says the Senate ░░░░░░░░ be involved in approving ░░░░░░░░ officers of government There ░░░░░░░░ nobody left So I ░░░░░░░░ what General Milley was ░░░░░░░░ and by the way ░░░░░░░░ the chairman the service ░░░░░░░░ the joint combatant commander ░░░░░░░░ are in contact with ░░░░░░░░ counterparts globally It s ░░░░░░░░ of the deterrence of ░░░░░░░░ combat I think he ░░░░░░░░ it important to not ░░░░░░░░ up with a World ░░░░░░░░ I start of a ░░░░░░░░ through miscalculation on the ░░░░░░░░ of the Chinese Though ░░░░░░░░ I think we ought ░░░░░░░░ be fortunate we ve ░░░░░░░░ this Princeton grad tremendous ░░░░░░░░ officer extremely intelligent law ░░░░░░░░ trying to safeguard the ░░░░░░░░ to a duly elected ░░░░░░░░ Biden administration He was ░░░░░░░░ to death of what ░░░░░░░░ country was on the ░░░░░░░░ of.”
