Shorter Robert Gates: Trump sucks, but both sides.
What a fucking hypocrite he is, he was still Secretary of Defense when the United States started bombing Libya.
And, according to Wikipedia:
Time magazine notes that Gates and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have “forged a formidable partnership”, speaking frequently, “comparing notes before they go to the White House”, meeting with each other weekly and having lunch once a month at either the Pentagon or the State Department.[58]
