In yet another controversial remarks, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has said US generals under Obama administration have been “reduced to rubble” and suggested that he if elected would remove some top military officers to usher in a new upper echelon.
“I think under the leadership of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton; the generals have been reduced to rubble. They have been reduced to a point where it’s embarrassing for our country,” Trump alleged during a presidential candidate forum town hall organised by the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.
Trump said this responding to a question on his remarks that he knows about ISIS more than the American generals.
“The generals under Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have not been successful,” he said. However, in a follow up question, Trump said he has full faith in the military.
