New York, November 19 (RHC)-- Another controversial military figure, former CIA director and retired U.S. Army General David Petraeus, is reportedly in the running for secretary of state.
In 2015, Petraeus was sentenced to two years’ probation and a $100,000 fine after pleading guilty to leaking highly classified information to his biographer and lover, Paula Broadwell.
This comes after Trump has spent months calling for Hillary Clinton to be jailed for her use of a private e-mail server when she served as secretary of state, despite being cleared of wrongdoing by multiple FBI investigations.
Donald Trump also met with President Richard M. Nixon’s secretary of state, Henry Kissinger, at Trump Tower in New York City earlier this week.
