James Woolsey headed the CIA during the presidency of Bill Clinton in 1990s.
A former top American spymaster who headed the CIA during the presidency of Bill Clinton in 1990s joined the presidential campaign of Republican nominee Donald Trump on Monday. Such an announcement by James Woolsey, who headed the CIA from 1993 to 1995, is seen as a setback for the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton of the Democratic party.
In a statement issued through the Trump Campaign, Woolsey raised questions on Clinton's ability to lead the nation. "Since Clinton left the State Department we have learned that she demonstrated a complete lack of understanding and an inability to lead the agency she headed in such a way as to maintain its mission and security," he alleged.
"Based on the emails thus far released we know that Secretary Clinton also lacks the ability to lead her senior managers while complying with and maintaining the basic protocols designed to protect our government s sensitive and classified information," Woolsey said.
"Trump understands the magnitude of the threats we face and is holding his cards close to the vest. Bravo Zulu, Trump," said the former CIA director announcing that he would now be advising the Trump Campaign. "I have been a 'Scoop Jackson', 'Joe Lieberman', Democrat all of my adult life, but I am pleased to be asked to participate with others I respect in advising GOP candidate Donald J Trump on the urgent need to reinvest in and modernise our military in order to confront the challenges of the 21st century," he announced.
"Trump's commitment to reversing the harmful defense budget cuts signed into law by the current administration, while acknowledging the need for debt reduction, is an essential step toward reinstating the US' primacy in the conventional and digital battle space," Woolsey said.
