I’ve known and know several former military folks who, well, I sure question their oath. Did they have their fingers crossed when they swore the oath? I meant what I swore to in summer of ‘67 when my dad swore me in and I still hold that oath close 50+ years later. But, it takes all types I suppose.

Don’t forget the Army general (name escapes me at the moment ... Weasley Clark?) who tried to get us into a war with the Russians during the reign of King William.

Would this be an admiral in the navy that keeps crashing its ships into oil tankers?

I had the opportunity to meet this guy at a presentation he once did for a military appreciation luncheon. Fairly unimpressive despite his resume. It is amazing, however, how these perfumed princes turn into crybabies and leftists one they’ve left the service. The Navy for one, and our nation in general is better without him in a position of leadership. He should just sit down and shut up.

The first liberal lie was Trump himself is so horrible he is a recruitment tool for ISIS.

The lie this put on top of that is that the dogs will be an even more powerful recruiter for ISIS.

Both are idiotic.

The Left continues to jump the shark and go over the top in their hatred of Trump.

Saying ISIS is better than Trump is truly embarrassing.

They make themselves look petty, petulant and juvenile. It makes them look small.

The irony these yahoos don't comprehend is that comments like this make Trump look better, not worse.

I think that will become a recruiting tool that the Islamic State uses on the internet

They didn't have too much problem recruiting with Obama at the helm offering a challenge round of patty-cake.

You don’t make it to General or Admiral without being a political animal. Most of the higher ones are also on the “Council on Foreign Relations” which means they are globalist anti American communists.

There is a reason that in WWII many officers were forcibly retired and junior officers were promoted into their positions. Wartime Generals and peacetime perfumed princes are a different thing. The last Wartime Army General I can think of was Schwartzkopf. I’m open to discussion on that. Note...he was stopped by Obama voter and affirmative action trophy holder Powell.

“He’s demon-possessed”!

That’s for sure. All of the Left and Globalists are demonically motivated.

“Is all our military run by asshats or just the Navy and Air Force.”

I’m pretty sure it is all of them. With over 50 years of liberal ideology in the ranks, the military is just shot. They’re more worried about liberal nonsense than defending this nation.

Trump is a greater threat to the Swamp class and organized crime in general.

Oh yeah. We really don't want to get ISIS really mad at us. Just think what they could do if they were really angry.

Here is a message sent to the enemy by a real American soldier who could give a rat's ass about what the enemy thought:

“We'll win this war, but we'll win it only by fighting and showing the Germans that we've got more guts than they have; or ever will have. We're not just going to shoot the sons-of-bitches, we're going to rip out their living Goddamned guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks.”

George S. Patton
