Great interview and very timely.

[@thfpnw7103]

I understand the military should be non-partisan but have a hard time understanding his decision to not vote, even as a civilian.

[@rustynails68]

I understand his position. I plan to vote for local policy but skip the presidential because people judge.

[@dr.davidboisselle7399]

I think he just doesn't want to get caught up in partisan politics. Just wants to give his "best military advice" to whomever is seeking his counsel.

So many Wars...so little time

Two months later Congress continues to dither on Ukraine aid. Just shameful!

Hi gorgeou

Stopped watching in 2016.

[@spartacus8567]

lost all respect for petraeus when he endorsed the enforcer youtube channel that combines incredibly ridiculous comments, with childish "scooby doo" impressions and constant laughter at the plight of war scenes and fleeing civilians.

[@evarlast]

This man is a criminal and plead guilty to mishandling classified material. He should have been charged with more. He is a war criminal and shares the responsibility for murdering thousands of innocents during the second Iraq war. His opinions on current affairs might be interesting and even right, but many others say the same things.

Petreaus lost all credibility when he became a yes man for Obama
