Panetta Slams Trump on North Korea and Venezuela: ‘This Is Not Reality TV’

Friday on CNN, former Defense Secretary and CIA Director Leon Panetta said of President Donald Trump’s warnings to North Korea and Venezuela that this was “not reality TV.”

Panetta said, “Considering the number of flash points we’re dealing with in a very dangerous world, the last thing we need is another flash point where we may possibly use military force.”

He added, “This is not reality TV. This is a situation where you can’t just talk down to everybody in the world and expect that somehow you can bully them to do what you think is right.”
