Former VA Sen Warner slams Trump in Clinton endorsement: "Loose lips sink ships-You got that Trump"

Former Va. Sen. John Warner slams Trump during Clinton endorsement

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Former Republican Sen. John Warner endorsed Hillary Clinton on Wednesday, calling her “prepared to be a world leader and the United States president."

The longtime GOP senator cast the choice between Clinton and Donald Trump as a dire one for world security, saying he felt "distressed by some of the comment" made by Trump, though he did not speak Trump's name until the end of his speech, when he said: "Loose lips sink ships. You got that Trump?"

"There comes a time when I have to stand up and assert my own views," Warner said here. "If there’s one thing about candidate Clinton that you’ve got to understand, she throughout her whole life has been prepared, done her homework and studied."

..............

"We have today the strongest military in the world. No one can compare with us,"
Warner said. "No one should have the audacity to stand up and degrade the purple heart ... or talk about the military being in state of disaster. That's wrong."

...........

“You don’t pull up a quick text, like national security for dummies," Warner said. “That book hasn’t been published."

Typically, when people say 'loose lips sink ships', that's what they are saying. ??
