When Gen. Milley apologized for the June walk through the park to give 45 his photo op with a bible held upside down (metaphor), I learned something about the General I had not known before. I typically don't pay much attention to generals. Now, General Haig - remember him? He was one scary dude. With the horror of the former "administration" and the yes boys and girls lying their heads off day after day, it was a relief to hear Alexander Vindman and others, including General Milley speak the truth of the situation the nation was enduring with 45. Just like Nixon was looking for any way he could "save face" by creating a diversion, so too 45 - a sick personality from the beginning of his life tenure. I fear that too many gop folks have decided that he's the lemming they're going to follow no matter how high the cliff. They're only too glad to jump from if as long as many as possible follow them. Who knows? Maybe this is a way for the gop to cancel themselves. We can only hope. I'm sure there will be plenty of gop nut jobs calling for General Milley to be fired. Next act?
The unfortunate thing is there are Democrats calling for his resignation for "overstepping his bounds" and "threatening" civilian control of the military.
Everyone with nothing else to say grabs the nearest bit of language in order to have something to say. Talk about all the grandstanding that will take place these next hours and days. There are many dems who are as venal as gop for whom venality has become a way of life.
