CNN Analyst Cedric Leighton: John Bolton ‘Could Certainly Do the Job’ of NSA

‘I think Donald Trump is looking at a military person to go in there’

EXCERPT:

LEIGHTON: "If I were to advise the President on this, I would say General McMaster is certainly one of the greatest minds in the U.S. Army today. He’s not only written a book but he was basically the leading force in the last and greatest tank battle since World War II. That was against Iraq. He understands the terrain. He understands both Iraq and Afghanistan. He’s also considered a thought leader in army circles and in military circles in general. So I think he would be an excellent choice. And I think also Ambassador Bolton, you know, would be somebody that could certainly make the engines run on time. But I think if President Trump is looking for a military person, he’s probably looking at General McMaster at this point."
