Stavridis on Trump Soccer Ball: Like ‘Castaway’ When Hanks Starts Talking to a Volleyball

EXCERPT:

STAVRIDIS: "Instead, what we have today is a president who supposedly goes in a secret room, a little quiet room, with nobody there but a couple translators, and that’s where he really tells Vladimir Putin, 'Hey, you’re interference in our election was wrong.' Are we really supposed to believe that? And by the way, I thought the worst moment of the press conference was actually when Vladimir Putin flipped the soccer ball to the President of the United States. It reminded me of the scene in 'Cast Away' where Tom Hanks starts talking to his volleyball. Now we’ve got Ivan the Soccer Ball in the White House. It’s a bad day for the American presidency.”
