Podesta: Trump a 'draft dodger' in war for democracy
John Podesta, campaign chairman for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016, said Sunday that President Donald Trump has failed in carrying out his duty as president by not shielding the U.S. from Russian meddling efforts.
Podesta said that by undermining special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russian election interference and failing to implement congressional sanctions against Russian President Vladimir Putin, Trump was relinquishing his responsibilities as commander in chief.
He clearly, I think, has failed in carrying out his duty as president of the United States, which is to protect our democracy, Podesta said during an interview on CBS Face the Nation.
He added: If this is information warfare, then I think hes the first draft dodger in the war.

(2,078 posts)'Draft-dodger' is not where I am right now as I think it goes beyond that as this tag implied simple dereliction and avoidance.
Whats the motive? Why?
