Trump should be ‘ashamed’ of attacks on ex-intel chiefs — former CIA head
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleFormer CIA chief John Brennan hits back at Donald Trump on Sunday, saying the president should be “ashamed” after he attacked as “political hacks” the intelligence leaders who concluded Russia meddled in the 2016 election.
“Considering the source of the criticism, I consider that criticism a badge of honor,” Brennan tells CNN’s “State of the Union,” where he appears alongside former director of National Intelligence James Clapper.
“I found it particularly reprehensible that on Veterans Day Donald Trump would attack and impugn the integrity and the character of Jim Clapper, who served in uniform for 35 years,” says the ex-CIA chief.
“I think it’s something Mr. Trump should be ashamed of,” he adds.
