Gen. Flynn To Trump: The Time For Excuses Is Over
|
[ZERO] You can blame the weather, the terrain, faulty intelligence, inadequate resources, or the incompetence of your subordinates. You can surround yourself with people who assure you the battle plan was brilliant and the enemy simply got lucky.
But the casualties remain. The territory is lost. And no amount of explaining changes the outcome.
Following the November 3 elections, retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, President Trump's former national security adviser, published an open letter urging the president to confront the political aftermath with something Washington has never been particularly good at: an honest assessment of its own failures.
Flynn invoked a military practice known as the After Action Review, or AAR. It's a disciplined examination of what was supposed to happen, what actually happened, why the two differed, and what must change before the next mission.
It is not designed to preserve anyone's feelings. It is designed to prevent the same mistakes from happening twice.
Imagine applying that standard to Washington.
Imagine the president, his cabinet, congressional leadership, and political advisers sitting around a table without cameras, publicists, or carefully rehearsed talking points. No one gets to blame the media. No one gets to hide behind party affiliation. No one gets to confuse good intentions with measurable results.
Instead, everyone must answer four uncomfortable questions.
