    Trump's pick for Army post drops out amid growing criticism

    Trump's pick for Army post drops out amid growing criticism

    Published May 05, 2017 Associated Press

    April 9, 2013: State Tennessee Sen. Mark Green participates in a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing in Nashville, Tenn. Green. (AP)


    The Republican state senator from Tennessee picked by President Donald Trump to be Army secretary has withdrawn from consideration.

    Mark Green
    steps aside amid intensifying criticism over his remarks about LGBT Americans and Muslims.

    Green is the second Trump nominee for Army secretary to withdraw.

    Several Democrats have denounced Green for declaring that being transgender is a disease. He is opposed to gay marriage.

    Green says in a statement that "false and misleading attacks" against him have made his nomination a distraction. He says his life of public service and Christian beliefs have been mischaracterized for political gain.

    During a speech last September, Green urged that a stand be taken against "the indoctrination of Islam" in public schools. He also referred to the "Muslim horde" that invaded Constantinople centuries ago.

    There's a lot of damn shames going on. Just part of the battles to win the war. We'd be miles ahead if Puzder had been confirmed as Secretary of Labor and Flynn was National Security Advisor. But this is the nasty game of politics called "democracy", and when you miss a basket and lose the ball, you just get it back and score next time.
