  1. He’s pissing them off. Good. So when it comes to refusing illegal orders, the Generals should have no problem telling POTUS “you cannot do that, and my oath is not to you. Buzz off.”

    They should show some respect to the guy who invented the word “admiral.” Nobody even knew geopolitics was so difficult until the 1st Trump term…

  3. >*“The president sounded incoherent, exhausted, rabidly partisan, at times stupid, meandering, couldn’t hold a thought together.”*

    More often than not lately, he seems washed up. I mean the performances of both T and Hegseth were loathsome.

  4. When a retired four star is speaking like this, he is dropping strong hints that his fellow retired generals and admirals as well as the current officer corps need to start making plans.

    It really needs to come from those of his rank. Others want permission and he is giving it to them.

    He’s like that all the time now! Maybe they haven’t watched a recent Trump speech before this. So, good news is “top military brass” have learned something…and they’re apparently not as terminally online as the rest of us.

    “The president sounded incoherent, exhausted, rabidly partisan, at times stupid, meandering, couldn’t hold a thought together.”

    So just your average MAGA speech.

  7. I believe we will see some rise in retirement from top-level military brass after seeing their commander-in-chief and his boy wonder secretary prove the incompetence of this administration.

  8. Dang.. what a relief to see some military brass seeing that speech for the insane drivel that it was

    It made me v. uncomfortable when he said something like “that’s right….nice and loose” to the room at the beginning of his speech 🤢

    It should be unsettling, Trump flat out pitched the idea of attacking US cities

  11. Placing my bets that this general gets reactivated, demoted and fired without pension.

  12. I watched all two hours of it. Hegseth seemed like a great orator compared to the old man. It was staggering how terrible Trump sounded. Pete at least spoke about the military, to military men. Trump was off on rambling tangent in two minutes and it never stopped.

  13. Hopefully, if there are any senior leadership line officers considering pledging loyalty to Trump in hopes of reaping big rewards after the coup, they might reconsider in the name of self preservation after hearing this shit.

    Doesn’t make them any less culpable when the trials begin, but it may mean the difference between a life sentence and capital punishment.

    Trump is as evil as Hitler, Putin and Kim Jong Un, but he’s waaaay stupider than they are, and yet he still somehow gets away with destroying the United States. You’d think someone that stupid wouldn’t be able to destroy a country as big as the U.S.

    No one will do anything. The cabinet, save for Rubio and Vance, are too blindly loyal. Vance and every republican politician know that if they vote for that they know he’ll turn his cult on them. They would certainly lose their jobs, possibly their lives.

  16. What I can’t get is why the hell he doesn’t just hang it up. Call it a day show up for the occasional event and the rest of the time Just screw off. I mean, seriously, is being evil literally the only thing getting this asshole through his day?

    It’s only the retired general who say things like this.     Just like it’s only the retired Republican to criticize their party. 

    The active duty generals and admirals have no balls.

  18. Big win for Team USA. I can’t stand all the winning. Please make the winning stop.
