1. It is a great story when a General is prepared to stand up to a Prez like trump.

Just think if trump had known about that, at the time.

2. He can't have liked the former presidents deprecating comments about our military

Especially about those who gave their lives in battle. But it's not the TFG worries about what anyone thinks about his harmful utterings.

havent seen him lately, and he's usually tight lipped. but man, hoping he's ready to spill some tea.
he was thinking about writing a book now that he is retired. but i suspect it would be stories about how his unit supplied the hail mary pass in gulf war 1.


it kills me to think about how many decent civil servants we lost in the last 4 yrs.
