Leon Panetta: Trump's Positions "Crazy," "Take Us Back to the 1930s"

|

Former CIA Director and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta criticized Donald Trump's foreign policy positions, and says he's supporting Hillary Clinton for president.

LEON PANETTA: The real challenge is to provide world leadership and that's the real difference between Secretary Clinton and Trump. Trump is talking about the world in a way that takes us back to the 1930s. I mean, he's almost talking isolationism, America First. He's talking about distributing a-bombs around the world. Those are crazy positions.

...

Do you want to take a gamble with the future? I don't want to do that.

...

I'm not sure what he stands for. I'm not sure what his positions are. He takes one position one day, he takes another position the next day.

He takes positions on, you know, immigration and building a wall, on getting rid of 11 million immigrants.

He talks about distributing atomic weapon--so it's okay if Japan gets atomic weapons, if Korea gets atomic weapons. He says these things almost as if he's not even thinking. And then, you know, the next day he kind of changes his position to try to soften some of the things he says.
