He said the Obama administration is taking exactly the wrong course.
“Instead, we have this politically correct nonsense,” Flynn noted. “We spent 40 years calling the communists communists. When we talk about radical Islamists, you get chastised for being racist. We have to stop that. That’s unfair to the American public, and it’s definitely not going to help us defeat this enemy.”
Although Flynn said the 2016 presidential race is one America cannot afford to get wrong, he believes it is essential to rein in the role the president plays on national security.
“The decision-making apparatus has been built up around the president of the United States and is out of control. It doesn’t have the strategic flexibility. It doesn’t have the adaptability. It doesn’t have the speed. And, frankly, it does not have the maturity to make the kind of decisions [necessary] nor to even think clearly,” Flynn said.
“That’s why we get involved in places like Libya, and we have poor decisions like getting out of Iraq in 2011. That’s why we see the messes that we see around the world right now in our foreign policy. I’m very concerned about that.”
Flynn is a registered Democrat, but he is outspoken in his support for Trump. He adds that his endorsement is almost entirely based on what he sees in Trump and is not simply a reaction to his opposition to Clinton. Flynn said Trump is running for the right reasons.
“He’s not doing this for Donald Trump,” Flynn said. “He’s doing this for the people of this country and for America. That’s the purpose. That’s why he dove head-first into the political cesspool that we have in this country to try to fix what we can to make this country great again.”
