Donnie won’t like that
Milley says that walk with Trump was wrong.
The top US military officer says he was wrong to have joined President Donald Trump during his controversial walk to a damaged church near the White House.
The 1 June event created “a perception of the military involved in domestic politics”, Gen Mark Milley said.
It sure as hell did, and that’s what fake-warrior Trump intended. Captain Bone Spurs wanted to walk his sorry cheeseburger ass up to that church with some SOJERS so that everyone would think he’s a warrior too instead of the blathering whining two scoops of ice cream couch potato he is.
The chairman of the joint chiefs of staff was speaking in a video for a National Defense University commencement ceremony.
Oh was he! That’ll sting. That’ll get Captain Bone Spurs really mad.
He said: “I should not have been there. My presence in that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics. As a commissioned uniformed officer, it was a mistake that I have learned from, and I sincerely hope we all can learn from it.”
Gen Milley added: “We must hold dear the principle of an apolitical military that is so deeply rooted in the very essence of our republic.”
…
The general was wearing battle uniform as he walked with the president and critics said this suggested his support for the deployment of the military against protesters.
Just a tad.
Too late!
Point of order – since Trump never actually was in the military I would argue that, at best, he should be referred to as cadet bone spurs.
Well I know but Captain seems so much more mocking and sarcastic…
May I suggest “Cap’n”? It denies him the title but gives him a jaunty little nickname that puts him on the same level as Cap’n Crunch.
Screechy, it also sounds somewhat like Alfred P. Doolittle. Perfect.
I think he should still be relegated to Cadet Bonespurs, as he only ever went to a tin school and doesn’t deserve any meaningful military title. Most particularly since he used his private school position and wealth (and lies) to avoid any genuine military service.
