Trump was a ‘nuclear monarch’ during his administration says General Milley
During his tenure, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley helped to preserve democracy as the first and only Chairman in history faced with a former President accused of inciting a riot on the Capital. according to The Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg. Goldberg joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss his new cover story, “The Patriot: How General Mark Milley Protected the Constitution from Donald Trump.” “He did a lot of things, General Milley, both domestically and internationally, to make sure that we didn’t have reckless wars,” Goldberg says. Milley and other national security officials “never disobeyed President Trump,” but instead tried to convince him that certain military actions were “a bad idea.” “Let’s not kid ourselves, the President is a nuclear monarch,” Goldberg says. “[It’s] very hard for a Secretary of Defense or senior military leadership to tell the president no, and it might be illegal to tell the president no.”
Vanity Fair Special correspondent Molly Jong Fast and U.S. Special Correspondent for BBC Studios Katty Kay join Nicolle Wallace to discuss the new reporting from The Guardian that former Trump aide Cassidy Hutchinson reveals in her new book that she was groped by Rudy Giuliani on January 6 – behind the scenes of the rally preceding the Capitol attack.
