Retired General David Petraeus was just on the PBS Newshour pimping Trump’s proposed addition of 4,000 troops in Afghanistan. He’s got to know that isn’t going to accomplish anything significant except, I suppose, make new widows and a boat load of money for defense resupply companies.
Clearly Petraeus by appearing on PBS is signaling he wants back into the game. Maybe he is eyeing one of those high level Senate confirmable DOD Assistant Secretary jobs.
