Mika: Trump’s ‘Using Our Country’s National Security as a Way to Deflect from His Personal Problems’

‘I don’t imagine how Secretary Mattis can wake up to a tweet like that that he did not expect and be able to continue to do his job’

BRZEZINSKI: “Joe, this is a little bit what we were talking about yesterday morning. These tweets, as some Republicans who sort of try to mitigate or defend Donald Trump’s tweets by saying they don’t listen to them, that’s impossible at this point. These tweets are being used to deflect whatever it is that’s making him upset at the moment. That’s a pattern that backs up a fact in my opinion. And right now, he’s using our country’s national security as a way to deflect from his personal problems or his personal anger. And I at this point, if I — I don’t imagine how Secretary Mattis can wake up to a tweet like that that he did not expect and be able to continue to do his job, without demanding that the President put the phone down and never tweet again or he is walking.”
