"They wanted to raid Veteran Affairs to spend the money on political affairs. This is something they tell me he will do in a second term," Miles Taylor warned.

Former White House advisor Miles Taylor appeared last night on CNN with Abby Phillip, where he talked about Trump's real disdain for the military. As just one example, he cited his efforts to raise the flags when they were at half-mast for John McCain after his death.

"Look here, Abby, there is a much bigger and disturbing picture here," Taylor said.

"When you're president of the United States, commander in chief of the armed forces, you are supposed to look out for American service members and for its veterans. Donald Trump, behind the scenes, was very, very different than that man you just noted hugging veterans in public. That's not just an attitude. It's not just disgusting comments he made behind scenes. I will tell you when speaking to the heads of Veteran Affairs under Donald trump, they have signaled that what he wanted to do was gut the veterans' health care safety net. They wanted to raid the Veteran Affairs to spend the money on political affairs. This is something they tell me he will do in a second term.

"Again, these are Donald Trump's handpicked staff to run the Department of Veteran Affairs saying in a second term he will, quote, 'detonate them' because he wants to use those funds elsewhere. There are real policy implications for Donald Trump's disdain towards America's veterans and its fallen soldiers," he said.

This is a bombshell. Unfortunately, the people who most need to understand this are Trump fans, and they simply don't believe he'd do it. Because they're in a cult.
