trump just criticized ousted Capt Brett Cozier...said "He shouldn't be talking that way in a letter"

Yamiche Alcindor@Yamiche
Pres Trump criticized now ousted Capt Brett Crozier of USS Theodore Roosevelt.

He said Crozier's memo warning Navy leadership that decisive action was needed to save lives of the ship's crew was not "appropriate."

"He shouldn't be talking that way in a letter," Trump said.

Capt Crozier, who was applauded by sailors Fri., warned that crew was at risk from virus.

Trump said: "I thought it looked terrible what he did to write a letter. This is not a class on literature...He shouldn't be talking that way in a letter. He could call & ask & suggest."








trump is a dumb ass madman. #25th AmendmentNow

Twitler didn’t like his letter. Made the Commander in Chief look like the absolute idiot he is.

He's a disaster, and a deeply horrible human being.
