“Things were said in the campaign about national security that troubled me very deeply. You have been elected, you are going to be the president, and it is important to all of us now that you be successful.” Robert Gates has served under eight presidents. And his one meeting with Trump had a significant impact. It’s well worth your time to watch this interview with Charlie Rose. It will provide a good reminder of what’s at stake when it comes to many of the cabinet picks, and why it’s so important to serve if asked.
