CNN’s Avlon: Trump’s the ‘Prime Driver’ of ‘Instability’ in the US Today

‘It’s about a basic vision of American leadership that has undergirded the American system for half century that this president shows disdain for, too often siding with Vladimir Putin over the Pentagon’

AVLON: "And look, the Republicans in the Senate have really fallen in line behind this president because the economy is doing well and he's been popular with the base. So they have really ignored the obvious. What Mattis resigned over was not just the Syria policy. What McConnell criticized was not just that. It’s about a basic vision of American leadership that has undergirded the American system for half century that this president shows disdain for, too often siding with Vladimir Putin over the Pentagon. And what we are being forced to confront today on the winter solstice is this: The President is the prime driver of instability in the United States today. Not the guarantor of our security as we've come to expect, but the prime driver of chaos and instability in the United States and arguably around the world."
