Trump sounded 'exhausted, incoherent and stupid' in his speech to military top brass, says retired general

Donald Trump sounded “incoherent, exhausted and… at times stupid” in his recent speech to military leaders, a retired general has said.

Retired General Barry McCaffrey branded the president’s Tuesday presentation at Quantico, in Virginia, “one of the most bizarre, unsettling events I’ve ever encountered.”

It comes as other leaders, including Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, have questioned Trump’s ability to lead effectively. “There is something genuinely wrong with this man and the 25th Amendment ought to be invoked,” Pritzker said Wednesday.

Speaking during an appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, McCaffrey shared the governor’s sentiment.
