Trump’s Former NatSec Advisor Says He Wouldn’t Work for ‘Very Offensive’ Ex-President Again

Former National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster said unequivocally that he would not work for former President Donald Trump again.

McMaster appeared on Monday’s AC360 on CNN to hawk his new book At War with Ourselves. He served in the Trump administration from February 2017 to April 2018.

The former NatSec advisor lamented that Trump had demeaned the late Sen. John McCain’s military service when the former president said McCain was only considered a hero because he was a prisoner of war.

“The president is quite often very offensive, brash, says things that are outlandish,” McMaster said. “I relayed a lot of those in the book. But you know, he’s an extremely disruptive person. I saw it as my job not to try to constrain him, but to help him disrupt what needed to be disrupted.”

Anderson Cooper interrupted to ask McCaster about the idea of serving in a second Trump administration.

“Would you work in a Trump White House again?” the host asked.

“No,” he replied without hesitation. “I will work in any ministration where I feel like I can make a difference, but I’m kinda used up with Donald Trump.”

Cooper followed up by asking if he would serve under Vice President Kamala Harris if she is elected president.

“I don’t know if I would be effective there either based on, probably my different points of view and what is a sensible policy for the Middle East or really fill in the blank,” McMaster responded.
