#1 He also suggested she suffers from "credibility issues" on national security and transparency,

Issues easily ignored by a man who led an agency steeped in 'credibility' and 'transparency' issues.

#2 "to reassure people about her judgment."

Her lack of judgment to use your military at Benghazi was sufficient evidence, General Cockroach.

#3 Of course not. He actually on the record not thinking that Islam is "Religion of Peace", and may've even concluded that the differences between an average Muslim and a clinically certified psychopath are not that great.

#7 she"has time before the election to address forthrightly her trustworthiness, to reassure people about her judgment."

#9 I agree with Gates that Trump is unfit to be C-in-C; it's just that Clinton has already proven herself to be even more unfit. Lesser of evils...
