So, no specifics. Just generalizations. No examples, just pure emotion., assuming this is real.

"Ruining the international order"?

"Fought against fascism and naziism"?

Did Milley conveniently forget that previous generations also fought against communism? What a ****** bag.

I'd respect him and others like him in positions of real power if they did ritual suicide instead of tick tok whining.

He's so principled that he enumerated all the reasons he should resign and then... Didn't...

Could have made it a lot more concise….

"Dear President Trump,

I am resigning because China pays better.

Plus, I do not want to commit suicide by shooting myself in the back if my head three times.

And, I partied once with Hunter.

Thanks-

General Mickey Mouse"

U.S. Army General Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, wrote a histrionic resignation letter to then-President Donald Trump after federal officials cleared rioters out of Lafayette Square back in the summer of 2020.


Why would he resign over an insurrection that forced the President of the United States into a bunker for national security reasons and injured over 50 police officers?

Quote:

"Beginning on Saturday May, 30, 2020, the USPP were under a state of siege and routinely subject to attack by violent crowds," Bernhardt wrote to members of the House Natural Resources Committee, which oversees the Interior Department.
"The incidents are numerous and include USPP officers having their police cars vandalized; being subject to bombardment by lighted flares; Molotov cocktails, rocks, bricks, bottles and other projectiles; and physical assault so violent that to date over 50 area law enforcement officers have been injured to some degree," Bernhardt wrote, adding that one officer required emergency surgery.

Example number 47 of Trump making really bad personnel choices.

Here's my question. If Trump became president again how much difficulty would Trump have finding qualified appointees who would be WILLING to work for him?

So many of his appointees ended up quitting and being on the end of Trump's sharp edged tongue. That's gonna turn off a lot of potential choices I'm skeptical he could put together a really top flight team.

Other opinions?

Millie is just another in a long line of political hacks who HAVE PRINCIPLES, and ARE OUTRAGED, but not during their term of office, where they could speak up and make a difference, but only later, for the BOOK DEAL.

It turned out that the generals had rules, standards, and expertise, not blind loyalty. The President's loud complaint to John Kelly one day was typical: "You ****ing generals, why can't you be like the German generals?"
"Which generals?" Kelly asked.
"The German generals in World War II," Trump responded.
"You do know that they tried to kill Hitler three times and almost pulled it off?" Kelly said.
But, of course, Trump did not know that. "No, no, no, they were totally loyal to him," the President replied. In his version of history, the generals of the Third Reich had been completely subservient to Hitler; this was the model he wanted for his military. Kelly told Trump that there were no such American generals, but the President was determined to test the proposition.

P1 - Politicize the military? Sorry, all Presidents do this and should. It is the force behind the foreign agenda (and should be used as such, unless they lied to the American people on its intended use when they approved of it when voting) and as a last resort to maintain domestic peace. That is exactly what Trump did.

P2 - Fear in the American People? Preposterous. I challenge him to show one single instance of fear in the American People in any appreciable numbers. It did not happen. Maybe a few woke leftists, but no appreciable numbers, realistically.

P3 - Equality? The US Constitution was meant to create equality in the groups he mentioned outside of the military and instead in everyday life. There is nothing in the Constitution that mentions the military and equality. The military is a fighting force that to be most effective should have the physical requirements and/or mental requirements met for the particular MOS, regardless of the demographics mentioned in the P. Those who want to make it a social experiment of demographic inclusion are subverting this country.

P4 - International disorder? Really? I mean I felt pretty safe before 2021. There were less international hostilities and our military was respected because it was geared to the fighting mission, not a social experiment. Now we have our major enemies actively waving swords, and in one major instance, actively starting a shooting war.

If that letter is from Milley, he should be very ashamed and run out on a rail. Not to mention, he should retake several grammar courses. In fact, a two sentence resignation letter would be more appropriate, if that is how he felt.

Please accept my resignation. I have come to realize that my leftist political beliefs of equality and world order are in direct conflict with the best interests of creating and leading the world's best fighting force, while assuring civilian control.

I'm fairly certain that the vast majority of our former great military and civilian leaders would agree.

It will be virtually impossible for Trump to find anyone, not much easier for DeSantis.

When it comes to the military, Obama purged much of the officer corps of anyone who wasn't a dedicated leftist.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

That's what most noticed. So basically of `left plane' of mind even under Trump. This explains his backing wokeness and joining the anti-white and west ranks.

Where's the resignation letter, complete with offer to do without pension, in atonement for the catastrophic Afghanistan defeat?

I disagree with that. It's just a right wing fairy tale that's not true.

Yes, that woudl be the best explanation. But its an established poster so took it at face value.

What comes across as a bit authentic is the whiny over-emphasis on that day back in summer of 2020 -- recall the flutter even then -- even as Left Antifa was destroying things all around the country.
