The RNC is backing President Donald Trump in his criticism of Adm. William McRaven, insisting that he is a political figure.
Worth noting after recent comments: Retired Adm. William McRaven was reportedly on Hillary Clinton’s short list for Vice President in 2016.
He’s been critical of President @realDonaldTrump— even dating back to the 2016 campaign.
He’s hardly a non-political figure.

McRaven was named in a preliminary list of possible vice presidential candidates for Hillary Clinton in June 2016, in an email disseminated by WikiLeaks.
McRaven denied Trump’s claim that he was a “Hillary Clinton fan,” saying he didn’t “back Hillary Clinton or anyone else.”
