Gen. McCaffrey: "Believe your eyes"..."We are watching a slow moving Trump coup"

124. Indeed

There are many in militias etc who are crazy nutjobs with military experience , no one is denying that. The VAST majority of veterans and active service members are true patriots though. I firmly believe this. To try and paint all those who serve or have served as traitorous rwnj's is wrong and imo uncalled for. There are more of us than there are of them. As far as your assertion about the Guard, its based on no facts imo. Red state or not most, I said MOST, will do the right thing and disobey a illegal order. The lower ranks will not take unilateral action without some kind of orders anyway and I trust the overwhelming majority of our officers. There's no reason to throw shade on veterans and our service members as a whole. I understand that military service is not looked upon as honorable by some of us on the left but if it ever comes to it, you'll be happy that so many of us DO have some experience.

As an aside, I've said for many years that having so many of our training and permanent party Forts/Bases in the deep south is a mistake and should be changed.
