Elissa Slotkin: People Criticizing Milley Have No Idea What Goes on in a National Security Apparatus

‘This is going to be a time where people need to step up and demonstrate to the country that they understand what leadership means’

EXCERPT:

SLOTKIN: "Yeah, I just think that those people who are criticizing General Milley have no idea what goes on actually in a national security apparatus. the chairman of the Joint Chiefs calls his counterparts all over the world, that is part of a normal routine. And if we were going to attack and he gave them a heads up, that’s one thing, but he said very clearly, as did the president at the time, we weren't looking to attack. So he was trying to dump in that tension. So it's totally normal order of business."
