    The only solace is that many of those armed forces voted for him. I don't feel sympathy for those morons.

    If they voted for him you can't say they weren't warned. He doesn't respect expert advice from leaders of the military. He wants yes men, who go with that hunch he feels in his bones.

    Otherwise, he treats them with disrespect, hate, and disgusting comments. Look at the horrible stuff he has said about John McCain.

    "He's a war hero because he was captured. I like people that weren't captured".

    Our troops better hope they aren't captured.


    Why 780 retired generals and former national security leaders spoke out against Trump

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/why-780-...eaders-spoke-out-against-trump-204428356.html

    General John Kelly, former White House chief of staff, called Trump “the most flawed person I have ever met in my life,” who “has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.”

    Mark Esper, former secretary of defense, said Trump is a “threat to democracy.”

    John Bolton, former national security adviser, believes Trump is “unfit to be president.”

    General Mark Milley, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, described Trump as “a fascist to the core.”

    Remember, these people worked closely with Trump.

    Now let’s move on to alarming things that Trump himself has said:

    “I need the kind of generals that Hitler had … People who were totally loyal to him, that follow orders.” Trump said this in a private White House conversation, according to The Atlantic.

    Kelly said Trump was incredulous when he was told that the American military swear an oath to the Constitution and not the president.

    This was not the first time Trump has emulated Adolf Hitler. When he once praised the German dictator, Kelly shut him down. “He said, ‘Well, but Hitler did some good things,’” ‘Sir, you can never say anything good about the guy. Nothing.’”

    Lol at marine! Brian McGinnis served less than 1 year in the marines before he was discharged 20 years ago. He's an ACTOR.

    McGinnis is a green party candidate running to be elected who married and had kids with a Palestinian woman. So we know where his indoctrination came from. You, on the other hand? He's a useful idiot - the democrats know their base.

    It's the exact same strategy as AOC running to the border for a photo op and NEVER visiting again. The crowd claps for the theater kids who play dress up to avoid the facts- this war is a result of Iran and Hamas's actions over the course of many years, culminating with a mass terrorist attack.

    Nothing in this world is funnier than watching MAGATs pretend we're not fighting the war on behalf of Israel even though Rubio and Trump have confirmed it multiple times. Trumps own intelligence claims Iran wasn't pursuing a nuclear weapon.

    It's so satisfying watching MAGATs cope with the entire world turning on them

    I'm with you that it had gotten to the point where something needed to be done about Iran {and AOC, for that matter! {just joshin}}, but what are your thoughts on our strategy and execution thus far?

    Go edit the wiki, detective.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_McGinnis

    McGinnis served as a sergeant in the United States Marine Corps from 2000 to 2004.[2] In 2002, he was stationed at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina.[3] He was on the All-Marine boxing team and deployed to Iraq as a Light Armored Vehicle Crewman in 2003.[1] He was part of Operation Iraqi Freedom from February 2003 to June 2003.[2] He was honorably discharged in 2004.[5]

    p.s. I don't have a dog in the Israel-Palestine fight, but it's funny how much you give a **** about veterans depends entirely on whether they agree with you at any given moment.
