Ralph Peters: I Don't Want Moscow's Man in the White House
Lieutenant Colonial Ralph Peters, who is also a Fox News strategic analyst, revealed why he is voting for Hillary Clinton not Donald Trump even though he thinks she has committed criminal acts.
“I don’t want Moscow’s man in the White House… This is about the future of our country, it is about our security and here’s a guy who apologizes for everything Vladimir Putin does and makes crazy remarks about NATO, about Syria, about nukes, about the Mosul offensive,†he said during an interview with the FOX Business Network’s Stuart Varney.
While he is not a fan of Hillary either, he prefers her approach to foreign policy.
“Hillary Clinton’s domestic policies repel me, she is awful, but she is safer for this country’s security than Donald Trump and I think Vladimir Putin has a deep hold on Trump and we should all be much more alarmed than we are,†he said.
As for trade policy, Peters’ has a problem with what Trump is proposing. “You want a global recession? Do you want to see your portfolio really tank? Sure, just walk away from all our trade deals,†he said.
Peters’ is also suspect of Trump’s plan to jump start the U.S. economy.
“Where is the plan? Show me the plan, of course we want growth… He is lying to the American people, he is lying to blue collar workers and that is the back ground I come from. The village blacksmith shop is not coming back. People need skills for the jobs of the future and this cult of Trump is going to lead a lot of places,†he said.
